Uses

• Under tile waterproofing on balconies, terraces, podiums, decks, toilets, arches and slope substrates on surfaces such as: Concrete, drywall and cement renders.
• Waterproofing of potable water tanks and sewage tanks.
• As a strengthening coating together with polymer nets on Styrofoam.

Advantages

• Non-slump with high adhesion properties to most of the building materials
• Easy application by brush, roller or broom
• Highly flexible
• Protecting concrete and rebar from chloride and sulfate attack
• Reinforcement with polymer nets
• Despite the traditional waterproofing membranes like bitumen, FARCOTOP111 needs no protection wall in front of it; in addition it is resistant in high ambient temperature and direct sunlight.
• Tiles are installed directly on top of it with the usage of Tile adhesives.
• Suitable for contact with drinking water.
• Can be painted with different colors

Coverage

The consumption depends on surface profile, texture, and wastage. Generally it is about 2 to 5 kg/m² for thickness of 2 to 4mm.

Instruction for Use

Surface Preparation

• Surfaces must be sound, stable, dry, clean and free of dust, loose, flaking, friable material and substances that may diminish adhesion.
• Repair the removed areas with mortars (sand, cement) which are modified with emulsion polymers such as SA12 or SA46 according to their usage instructions.
• In case of low concrete surface quality with too much defects which should be removed, it is recommended to apply the whole surface with a layer of polymer modified mortar then coat it with FARCOTOP111

Mixing

Thoroughly mix parts A and B with a slow speed mixer or by gloved hand until a homogenous and lump free paste is achieved. Mix enough material to be used within an hour.

Application

• Apply a layer of primer (1part SA46+2 parts water+3 parts cement) with a brush on to the prepared surface and while it is still tacky apply a layer of the slurry by brush or roller with max.2 mm thickness, apply the second layer with 24 hours interval.
• FARCOTOP 111 contains high amount of cement, damp the surface prior to application, protect the surface before and after application from direct sunlight and damp cure the treated surface for a few days.
• Keep the packages in areas with suitable situation and avoid the mixture temperature above 25˚c.
