AQUATECH

AQUATECH is innovative water based aliphatic polyurethane sealing system. AQUATECH's components are human-friendly and environment-friendly, they are not toxic neither harmful to touch, unlike existing polyurethane materials.     

AQUATECH creates, after having hardened, a strong and flexible, abrasion resistant sealing membrane, with a smooth surface and nice aesthetic appearance.

AQUATECH is highly resistant to u.v. radiation.

Application

Sealing of concrete roofs, old polyurethane/acrylic coated roofs.

Check that gutters are in good working order, that walls and floor meeting corner sides are rounded, and verify minimum slopes of 1.5%.

Application should be performed on a strong stable concrete (that was casted minimum 30 days before application) or other substrates such as old acrylic/polyurethane coatings.

Remove intensively all loose particles. Rinse intensively the roof to remove mud and wait until completely dry. Apply 250 gr/m² of AQUAPOXY over the roof surfaces.

Drying time: 1-2 hours.

1. Apply Aquatech in quantity of 1.0 kg/m² along the walls and floor meeting corners, gutters, pipe penetration and along cracks (in 15 cm strips). Let it dry for 2 - 4 hours.
2. Apply a first layer of Aquatech over the surfaces by spray or brush, in a quantity of 1 – 1.25 kg/m². Letting to dry for 3 -5 hours.
3. Apply 1 – 2 layers of Aquatech in a quantity of 1 – 1.25 kg/m².

Drying time between layers: 3 – 5 hours.

Total quantity: 2.5 – 3.0 kg/m², depends on slopes, type of substrate and dimensions of the roof.

For achieving a reliable and long lasting waterproofing system, It is recommended to reinforce the fresh Aquatech with polyester fabric type POLYFABRIC (a glass net is acceptable as a less qualified reinforcement). A minimum quantity of 3 kg/m² Aquatech is recommended in this case.

To touch: 2-3 hours (at 25°C and 50% humidity).

Final drying time: 14 days.

In the shade, protected against frost and high temperatures (5°C – 35°C)
