Can be applied on moist surface also.
Excellent vapour barrier.
Good flexibility and does not crack on aging.
Prevents growth of fungus, algae etc.
Application Methodology
Surface Preparation
Remove all loose gravel, dirt, oil, grease and foreign matter by jet of dry air and clean the
surface mechanically or by grinding to make it smooth before application.
Repair all cracks by cutting “V” groove and fill with PMC mortar prepared in the ratio of HS
Advanced Latex Plus : Water : Cement : Sand (1 : 1 : 5 : 20).
Provide 50 mm x 50 mm coving made out of PMC mortar as above.
Material Preparation
Stir TarFelt DPC by a slow speed mixture (approx. 400 rpm) fitted with a suitable mixing
paddle to ensure a homogenous mix.
After stirring, wait for the product to settle in order to let entrapped air escape.
Waterproofing Application
Slightly damp the surface. Avoid standing water / ponding.
Prime the surface with a mixture of TarFelt DPC and potable water in the ratio of 50 : 50
and apply @ 400 grm / m2 of the mixture and allow it to touch dry.
Apply first coat of TarFelt DPC @ 0.70 kg / m² by brush / roller / airless spray while the
primed surface is tacky. For faster and smoother application, airless spray is preferred.
Spread fiber glass net of 45 gsm with overlaps of 50 mm in both directions when the surface
is still tacky.
Allow 1st coat to dry for 10 – 12 hr.
Apply second coat of TarFelt DPC @ 0.70 kg / m² by brush / roller / airless spray for final
DFT of 1000 micron in two coats inclusive of fiber glass of 45 gsm (theoretical coverage
depending on surface conditions).
Sprinkle sand @ 200 grm / m2 over the final vertical coating when the surface is still tacky
to facilitate plastering.
Ensure final curing time of 36 hrs before allowing / carrying out any further work.
Conduct ponding test after 7 days of curing at ambient temperature.
Protection of Waterproofing
Spread 150 gsm Geotextile Fleece with overlap of 50 mm in both directions on fully cured
surface.
Protect surface with 50 mm PCC admixed with HS Power Plasticizer and gradient of 1 :
100.
In case of eye contact, wash immediately with plenty of clean water and seek medical
advice.
If swallowed seek medical attention immediately. Do not induce vomiting.
