    This technical data sheet provides information on a water repellent solution for use on masonry substrates as a primer or impregnating agent. The solution is solvent-based and contains silane and siloxane mixtures. It penetrates substrates well to create a water-repellent zone that prevents moisture damage without blocking vapor permeability. The product increases paint adhesion, protects against chloride corrosion, and recoatability. It is recommended for use in a two-coat system with a topcoat like Durasil.

    TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

    WATER REPELLENT SOLUTION Updated Aug’16

    Water Repellent Solution is a solvent-based primer based on silane / siloxane mixture. It serves
    as high quality primer for exterior concrete protection and also can be used as an impregnating
    agent for masonry substrate. It can reduce the capillary absorption of construction materials
    without blocking their pores and capillaries. Therefore, it does not affect the diffusion
    permeability. As a result, water vapour can escape unhindered from the masonry, and any damp
    can dry out.

    Product Features:
     Excellent depth of penetration, creating a broad water repellent zone beneath the topcoat
     Excellent resistance to alkaline and efflorescence – the hydrophobic zone prevents salt, water
    and alkaline being transported from within the wall to the surface
     Good water-vapour permeability, does not affect the breathing behaviour of the substrates
     Prevent damage caused by Chloride-induced reinforcement corrosion
     Good recoatability
     Increase paint adhesion
     Substrate reinforcement by digital network formation

    Surface Preparation
    Remove all loose, defective paint or powdery residues, loose chalk, dust, fungus, algae and foreign matter. Treat any areas
    affected by fungus growth with Fungicidal Wash Solution. Repair cracks, uneven surfaces with suitable exterior grade fillers.

    P a g e 1|2
    TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
    Smoothen the filler areas with sand paper. Surfaces to be painted must be cleaned thoroughly and dry, it must be free from
    dirt, grease and other foreign matters. Allow all surfaces to dry completely prior to painting. Avoid painting when the
    moisture content and alkalinity of the walls are still high. (Recommended painting specification requires the moisture
    content of the walls to be below 16% measured by protimeter and alkalinity of the walls to be below pH9.) Spot prime with
    Water Repellent Solution.

    Cleaning
    Clean up equipment with water immediately after use.

    Safety Precautions
     Keep container tightly closed and keep out of reach children or away from food and drink.
     Ensure good Ventilation during application and drying.
     When applying paint, it is advisable to wear eye protection.
     In case of contact with eye, rinse with plenty of water immediately and seek medical advice.
     Remove splashes from skin by using soap or water.
     Paint must always be stored in a cool place.
     When transporting paint, care must be taken. Always keep container in a secure upright position.
     Dispose off any paint waste in accordance with the appropriate Environment Quality Regulations.

    Note
    * Theoretical Coverage is based on a mathematical formula

    𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑆𝑜𝑙𝑖𝑑 % 𝑥 10
    [ ] = m2/lit/coat
    𝐷𝑟𝑦 𝐹𝑖𝑙𝑚 𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑐𝑘𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠

    and does not consider LOSS FASTORS.


    Variables like porosity of substrate, application method, dilution ratio, dry film thickness, opacity and so on will affect the
    loss factor and can vary from 30% - 50% or even more.
