Description:
A cementitious waterproof coating designed for use below and above ground for cellars, retaining walls, and
tanks.
Benefits:
u Excellent adhesion to most common building materials – see
surface preparation.
u Water based ‐ safe to apply on damp surfaces.
u Easy application ‐ applied by brush.
u Resistant to positive and negative water pressure up to 7 Bar.
u WRAS approved.
Uses
High performance; high water resistance (EN 998-1), flexibility, good
adhesion and set control in a water mix form. Bond It TANKING SLURRY is a
blend of Portland cements, quality graded aggregates and chemical
modifiers, which provide a waterproof coating system.
Suitable Applications: Tanks, pits and swimming pools; Above and below
ground walls and floors; Cellars, underground rooms; Interior spaces, e.g.
ducting, party walls, lift shafts; Fish ponds.
Preparation Of Substrate
1. Suitable for use with; brick, stone, and concrete surfaces.
2. It is recommended sources of water and damp are removed. A damp
proof course should be employed.
3. All contact surfaces must be clean and sound, and free from dust,
grease particles and loose material or previous coatings. The surface must
be prepared using abrasive tools, jet washing or wire brushing and any
debris removed with clean water. A sound mechanical key surface must
be achieved prior to slurry or backing render application, otherwise damp
will build up under the tanking coating and will affect the bond to the
substrate.
4. Tap off water pressure where necessary insert a fillet at floor and wall
joint.
5.Running water and surface defects, such as holes, cracks or fractures
should be filled with Bond It PLUG IT. PLUG IT can be over coated with
TANKING SLURRY as soon as it is cool and dry to the touch.
6. Under normal applications no priming is required. For difficult surfaces
Bond It EXTERIOR PREGRIT or SBR ADMIXTURE may be applied as a
primer coat.
7. Seal around all services and pipes with Bond It GRIPBOND PRO HYBRID
SEALANT.
Mixing
1. The water requirement to produce the coating is 5 Litres of clean water
per 20Kg of dry material.
2. Pour the required quantity of water into suitable mixing bucket /
container. Slowly add the powder to the water whilst continuously mixing
with a mechanical paddle / stirrer.
3. Mixing should be continued until all the powder is homogenously
combined into a “creamy” consistency. As a rule of thumb – when the
block brush is placed into the mix bristles first the non bristle part should
float on the surface when the correct consistency is achieved.
4. Additional water will reduce the effectiveness of the product.
5. Do not mix more product than can be applied in a 60 minute period.
Application
Bond It TANKING SLURRY can be applied when both the surface and air
temperature is in the range of 5°C to 25°C. This product is susceptible to
frost damage – see storage. Dampen the surface, ensure no standing or
pooled water is present. This is a two coat application. Apply the first
coat to a thickness of 2mm in a vertical direction, working the slurry into
any pinholes, crevices or edges thoroughly with a brush. Rollers can be
used over larger sections but the surface should be inspected for any gaps
or breaks in coating. The slurry needs to be a continuous film for it to be
effective, this is especially important at the floor/wall junction.
Inspect the coating after approximately 3 hours for breaks or gaps. If the
film is consistent, touch dry and fully adhered apply a second coat
horizontally, as this will ensure complete coverage of the substrate. Do
not re-temper stiffened material. Once applied protect from frost, direct
sunlight and wet weather.
Limitations
Do not apply over plaster, wallpaper or paint as the dampness will be
retained under the Bond It TANKING SLURRY and cause the plaster,
wallpaper or paint to fail taking all subsequent coatings along with it. Not
suitable for wood, plastic or fabric. Not suitable for Gypsum based
plasters. Stainless steel form details only to be used.
Curing
Drying times are affected by the substrate, the moisture content of the
substrate, the temperature of the substrate and the air. Under standard
conditions the film should be touch dry in 2 hours and thoroughly dry in
6-8 hours. Good ventilation is essential for correct drying and curing of
the product. Dehumidifiers or other heat sources to accelerate drying
must not be used. Protect from frost, direct sunlight, and drying winds for
24 hours. Note: TANKING SLURRY is not designed to be a final wearing
coat.
Over Coating
It is recommended that Bond It TANKING SLURRY
is not over coated until after 5 days. If
plastering, only a cement based renovating
plaster can be used. Solvent based paints are
not suitable. Water based paints can be used
however, the first coat should be of a matt
emulsion type, not silk or similar.
Coverage
One 20Kg bag is sufficient to cover
approximately 12m2
.
Cleaning
Clean tools immediately after use in warm,
soapy water then rinse in clean water.
Shelf Life
12 months from date of manufacture shown on
the bag, when stored in unopened sacks.
Storage Conditions
Store in original unopened bags. Once opened
the product will absorb moisture from the air
and become unusable. Store in a cool, dry place
between 5-25°C and protect from frost. Do not
place bags on the ground.
Disposal of Containers
Do not leave empty containers where residue
could be harmful to children, animals or the
environment. Remove any containers to a
central disposal point in accordance with local
regulations.
Health & Safety
Please refer to separate material safety data
sheet for full handling, use and storage
instructions. Keep out of reach of children. It is
the users responsibility to determine suitability
for use. If in doubt contact our Technical
Department for advice.
Note: this information is for general guidance
only, since site conditions and labour are beyond
our control. It is recommended that users make
their own tests to determine suitability.
