Commercial WPM Preparation:
Commercial WPM can require that all concrete have a wood float finish and be for at least 6 weeks prior to waterproofing. If interested in contracting please read more information about our waterproofing services
- Rendered surfaces should be allowed to cure for at least 7 days weeks prior to waterproofing.
- All fibre cement sheets, compressed fibre cement, plasterboard structural particleboard and plywood must comply with the relevant building code.
- All surfaces must be clean, dry, free of excessive movement, oil, dust grease, curing compounds, paint and any other loose or contaminating materials.
- The surface must be smooth with no protrusions or major irregularities.
- Screws and nail heads are to be sealed with epoxy or a suitable sealant. Do not use acid cured silicones or waterbased products.
- The first coat of Commercial WPM can fill a hairline crack. Cracks up to 2mm and control joints should be filled with a suitable sealant. Neutral cure silicone or P/U construction sealant can then be taped using a 50mm wide, fabric reinforced duct tape. Internal sheet joints should also have the same treatment in the same way.
- For interior concrete, render uncoated F/C sheet and other interior absorbent substrates. Use RLA Universal primer as a primer before using Commercial WPM.
- Allow drying for about 15-30 minutes.
Additional Information
- For exterior concrete or for coated waterproof type external or internal F/C sheet use one coat of Dryflex Moisture Barrier water-based epoxy as the primer.
- If the concrete contains moisture use 2 coats of Dryflex Moisture Barrier (see Dryflex Moisture Barrier Data Sheet) to form a hydrostatic membrane.
- At wall-floor junctions, apply neutral silicone or polyurethane sealant (do not use acid cured silicone or water-based sealants) to form a radiused fillet of at least 25mm diameter creating a bond breaker of at least 15mm.
