Aquastop Nanoflex® eco-friendly membrane is used in the following AquaExpert systems:
AQUAEXPERT 1 Flexible, high-adhesion and superior durability waterproofing system which is easy and fast to
00497Aquastop Nanoflex® Code: F899 2015/11 EN
apply. Specifically intended for balconies, terraces and horizontal external surfaces that are small in size and with no expansion joints
in the screed to be covered with ceramic tiles and natural stone. Guarantees water-resistance without the use of a reinforcing mesh.
AQUAEXPERT 2 Flexible, high-adhesion and superior durability waterproofing system which provides greater shear strength. Specifically
intended for balconies, terraces and horizontal external surfaces of any size and with expansion joints in the screed to be covered with
ceramic tiles and natural stone.
AREAS OF USE
Use
Terraces, balconies, horizontal surfaces and swimming pools on mineral screeds, monolithic cement-based screeds, existing floors
covered with ceramic and marble tiles, dimensionally stable natural stone well-anchored to the substrate and clean, cement-based
plasters/renders and cementitious mortars, aged concrete.
* ÉMISSION DANS L’AIR INTÉRIEUR Information sur le niveau d’émission de substances volatiles dans l’air intérieur, présentant un risque de toxicité par inhalation, sur une
échelle de classe allant de A+ (très faibles émissions) à C (fortes émissions).
AREAS OF USE
Do not use
On gypsum or anhydrite-based substrates without the use of Primer A Eco eco-friendly, water-based surface isolation, on metal or wood
substrates, on bituminous sheeting, to waterproof exposed surfaces subject to foot traffic, on low-density screeds, on insulation layers
on inverted roofs made with insulating panels or low-density materials, in swimming pools and tanks used to hold exposed water, when
adhesion of the coverings requires the use of reactive adhesives.
Preparation
Prepare Aquastop Nanoflex® in a clean container by pouring in approximately ¾ of the water required. Gradually add Aquastop
Nanoflex® to the container, mixing the paste from the bottom upwards with a low-rev (≈ 400/min) agitator. Add more water until the
desired consistency is obtained. The mixture must be of smooth consistency and without any lumps. The amount of water to be added,
indicated on the packaging, is an approximate guide. It is possible to obtain mixtures with a more or less fluid consistency, depending
on the type of application.
Application
Aquastop Nanoflex® should be applied with a smooth spreader on a previously prepared substrate. Apply the first coat about 1 – 2 mm
thick, pressing down to ensure maximum adhesion to the substrate. Once hardened and after removing any surface condensation, apply
the second coat of Aquastop Nanoflex®. Lay a continuous, even layer about 2-3 mm thick covering the substrate completely. When
waterproofing with Aquastop AR1 mesh, submerge the reinforcing mesh fully in the first layer of freshly applied waterproofing product,
pressing down with the spreader. The subsequent laying of the covering with H40® range eco-friendly mineral adhesive should be
placed at least 24 hours after the last layer has been applied. When working in low temperatures and with high humidity, the waiting time
before laying will be longer. If rain falls on the product before it is fully hardened, check it is ready before applying the next coat/covering.
Cleaning
Residual traces of Aquastop Nanoflex® can be removed from tools with plain water before the product hardens.
SPECIAL NOTES
Pools, tanks, basements and foundations in cured reinforced concrete: break the spacer holes mechanically and clean them suitably,
then apply Nanosil Eco neutral organic silane sealant and level the surface with a suitable finishing product. Waterproof the corners
by anchoring Aquastop 100 tape with adhesive from the H40® range, creating special pieces for external angles, internal angles and
connections to drains and installations by cutting the tape itself. Where there is insufficient space to use Aquastop 100 tape, apply
Nanosil Eco sealant.
Surfaces subject to foot traffic: use Aquastop Traffic to protect untiled surfaces that have been waterproofed using Aquastop Nanoflex®.
