Areas of Application
- Waterproofing of small terraces, masonry surfaces, sunken slabs, residential water tanks, chajjas, etc.
- As a bonding aid for old and new concrete / mortar.
- Useful as an additive for making repair mortars / concretes
- Water resistant renders or plasters
Method of Application
As Waterproof Coating
- Surface prepare, as detailed earlier to receive the waterproofing coating. Mix Dr. Fixit Pidicrete MPB and cement in 1:1 proportion by volume. Apply 1st coat when the surface is in a SSD condition and allow it to dry for 4 to 5 hours. Apply 2nd coat and allow it to 'air cure' for at least 72 hours. Protect the waterproof coating of Dr. Fixit Pidicrete MPB with a mortar screed of 15 - 25 mm thick, from damage. Plaster over vertical surfaces shall be done when the second coat is tacky to ensure better bond with the surface.
- Prior to the waterproofing treatment, all fine cracks up to must be suitably treated with polymer modified cement slurry. Cracks more than 2mm and separation gaps between concrete and masonry must be filled with Dr. Fixit Pidicrete MPB/ URP modified mortar. Consult DR. FIXIT for large / structural cracks.
As Bonding Agent
- Clean the surface thoroughly of its loose concrete, dust, etc., and prewet with water adequately to a saturated surface dry ( SSD ) condition; ensure that there is no standing water
- Brush apply a single neat coat over the clean surface. Allow this coat to become tacky and then apply fresh concrete or mortar. If the bond coat is dried, apply another to ensure effective bonding.
Precautions & Limitations
- Do not keep the mixed material open for more than 30 minutes.
- Do not dilute product with water at site
- Do not place new concrete or mortar if the bonding agent is dried
- Do not take up applications in direct heat, opt for cooler temperatures or in shade to apply.
- Pre wetting of surface with water is essential
- In critical repairs, consult DR. FIXIT for a suitable epoxy bonding agent.
