DESCRIPTION

WET PRO 008 is a Class III water based latex SBR membrane, suitable for a range of under tile internal wet area applications. Designed with the highest quality resins, WET PRO 008 offers excellent adhesion and outstanding low vapor transmission.

The unique formulation provides a membrane which is highly durable and flexible for easy workability and which will not re-emulsify once cured. WET PRO 008 is suitable on surfaces such as Concrete – FC Sheeting – Masonry – cement render – plasterboard – particle board, scyon sheeting. Not suitable for external or areas subject to UV exposure.

FEATURES, BENEFITS, AND ADVANTAGES

• Solvent Free
• Single pack
• Fast curing
• Permanently flexible
• Easily repaired or maintained
• Excellent adhesion to surfaces
• Formulated to provide long term protection.
• No re-emulsification
• Low odour

USAGE / PURPOSE

WET PRO 008 has been designed as an effective waterproof membrane for use within the building industry for internal wet areas such as bathrooms and laundries.

SURFACE PREPARATION / PRIMING

All Surfaces to be waterproofed must be clean, dry, sound, and smooth. Ensure all laitance, grease, oil, wax, curing compounds, loose material, paint, and any other contaminants which may prevent adhesion must be completely removed, mechanically where necessary. Masonry surfaces must be pointed flush, and all surface defects repaired. New concrete must be cured for a minimum of 28 days Or primed with WMA Aquastatic Epoxy. Cement screeds must be fully cured or primed with WMA AQUASTATIC Epoxy. FC sheeting, water resistant plasterboard and similar products must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Porous substrates such as plasterboard or cement boards should be Primed with WMA GP Primer. Green screeds or concrete should be primed with WMA Aquastatic epoxy primer applied at no less than 1 Lt per 4m² and allowed to dry. WMA Aquastatic Epoxy Primer must be used for areas such as timber and particle board surfaces, bitumen or where there is a risk of evaporation of entrapped moisture in the substrate which may cause the membrane to bubble. Excessively porous, friable, and dusty surfaces may require an additional priming coat.

COVERAGE

The stated Coverage of this membrane is dependent on substrate conditions and preparation. Floors – 1.00mm dry film thickness (approx. 9m² per drum) Walls – 0.5mm dry film thickness (approx. 18m² per drum) Note: Coverage figures are dependent on substrates condition. Surface preparation Performance data @23º C & 55% RH

• Tac touch after 2 hours
• Allow 6 -12 hours between coats
• Allow 36 hours drying time prior to tiling
• Always allow longer drying times in cooler or damp conditions.
• Flood Test 4 days curing Drying & curing is affected by porosity of surface, ventilation, weather. And application techniques.
