Crack-bridging, breathable, waterproof coating for concrete and masonry. Durable, colorfast coating for concrete, masonry, and stucco.
Where to use:
Protect vertical concrete, block, brick, stucco, and EIFS from water and contaminant entry. Will bridge minor cracking.How to apply:
Roller, spray or brush applied, waterproof, elastomeric, crack bridging, anti-carbonation membrane. Additional InformationMinimize InformationPerformance Characteristics
- Flexible Retains elasticity at low temperatures.
- Waterproof Two 15 mils. wet coats provide waterproof membrane.
- Anti-carbonation Mitigates carbonation of concrete.
- Breathability Water vapor permeable.
- Alkaline stable Formulated for highly alkaline substrates.
- Durable UV stable. Mildew resistant.
- Colorfast Premium quality exterior grade pigments, minimize fading.
- Textures Available in sanded and smooth finishes.
- Extensive color spectrum 38 standard colors and custom matching.
Surface Preparation
- Remove loose and deteriorated material, laitance, dirt, dust, oil and any surface contaminants that will inhibit proper adhesion.
- Prepare surface to a sandpaper-like texture (CSP 3) by mechanical abrasion or medium water blasting. Refer to ICRI Surface Preparation Guide 03732 for information about Concrete Surface Profile (CSP).
- Surface must be dry and frost free.
- Small voids, air pockets, static cracks up to 1/16 inch and irregularities should be filled with Plastermix.
- Repair larger voids and damaged areas with Conpro Set.
- For cracks greater than 1/16 inch, rout and caulk with a urethane sealant. Refer to SWRI Sealants – The Professionals’ Guide.
- Apply Plastermix to concrete where a monolithic, void free texture is desired.
- Apply Plastermix on reinforced concrete to increase carbonation resistance.
Priming
- Priming is not necessary under normal circumstances.
Mixing
- Stir or mechanically mix using a low speed drill (400 – 600) until homogenous.
- Mix pails from different batches when an entire surface is visible.
Application
- Apply a test sample to determine adhesion. Test using ASTM D3359 cross-hatch adhesion procedure.
- Substrate temperature must be above 45°F.
- Ambient temperature must be above 45°F for the entire curing period.
- Roll, spray or brush apply a uniform 15 mils. wet – dries to 7 mils.
- For roller applications use a 1 – 1-1/4 inch synthetic nap roller depending on texture of substrate.
- For spray applications use a Graco 3500, President or Bulldog or equivalent with a 0.041 – 0.047 tip. Refer to Conproco Black Book.
- Spray application must be back rolled for a pin-hole free surface.
- Work to pre-determined break points in the structure.
- Maintain a wet edge.
- Apply a second coat when the first is dry-to-touch.
Curing
- Protect from moisture for 24 hours and wind driven rain for 72 hours.
Clean Up
- Clean tools and equipment with water. Clean adjacent areas with water before material dries.
Coverage/Yield
- 100 ft²/gal. @ 15 mils. wet for smooth surfaces.
- 50 – 75 ft²/gal. @ 15 mils. wet for split block or rough surfaces.
Product Handling
- Packaging 5 gallon containers
- Shelf Life 18 months in unopened containers.
- Storage Protect from freezing. Transport and store in cool, clean, dry conditions in unopened containers. High temperature will reduce shelf life.
Limitations
- Do not apply if precipitation is forecast within 24 hours of application.
- Do not apply in strong winds.
- Do not apply to horizontal or overhead surfaces.
- Do not apply to frozen surfaces.
- Do not apply if temperature of substrate is below 45°F.
- Do not apply if ambient temperature is below 45°F.
- Do not apply in areas susceptible to ponding water.
Health and Safety
- Product is alkaline.
- Do not ingest.
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Avoid breathing vapors.
- Refer to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for additional information.
First Aid
- In case of skin contact, wash thoroughly with soap and water.
- For eye contact, flush immediately with a high volume of water for at least 15 minutes and contact a medical professional.
- For respiratory problems, remove person to fresh air.
- If respiratory difficulty persists, contact a medical professional.
Disposal
- Dispose of material in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
