Water Proof Coating K 5 water repells is supplied as ready to use. On porous surfaces k 5 water repells provides an invisible barrier to water penetration and remains effective for many years. K 5 water repells prolongs the clean appearance of buildings, reduces chemical attack, minimizes efflorescence. Thermal and sound insulation are improved by keeping the wall dry and the risk of frost damage is reduced. It will be effective on treated clay brickwork, calcium silicate brickwork, cement-based materials and all types of natural stone masonry, including limestone.

 

Uses:

k 5 waterrepells is suitable for external application to exterior walls of brick or concrete blocks, cement renderings, asbestos cement, concrete and all types of stone, including limestone. Also used as an injection damp coarse fluid.

to provide a durable barrier to water penetration of porous surfaces.

Application Instructions:

• Coverage Rates : one litre of k 5 waterrepells will cover between 4 and 5 m' of surface depending upon porosity and surface texture. Normally one coat is sufficient, but very porous surfaces may requirea further coat.
  
  

• Preparation Of Surface : all surfaces to be treated must be sound, clean and dry. Any defects and cracks, other than hair line cracks, should be made good. Dirty surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned and organisms such as algae or lichens should be removed. In no circumstances should detergents be used as they may reduce the efficiency of the treatment. The surface should be allowed to dry before the application of k 5 waterrepells. K 5 waterrepells should not be applied over mastics surfaces glass, etc. Should be protected against splashing during application.
  
  

• k 5 Waterrepells is supplied ready for use. Apply by brush or low pressure spray. The k 5 waterrepellsshould be applied liberally so that it runs freely down the surface to about six inches below the point of application. When applying by spray, the pressure should be kept as low as possible to avoid excessive misting, and the nozzle held close to the surface. K 5 waterrepells dries within a few hours and becomes fully resistant to water 24 hours after application. Brushes, spray equipment, etc. May be cleaned with water.
