When should waterproof adhesive be used?
1. Ensure the floor or wall surface is level. Uneven surfaces can lead to uneven application of the waterproofing agent and cracking of the coating after application.
2. To prevent water penetration and dampness, apply a waterproof sealant approximately 30cm high on the wall surface. If the bathroom has a shower enclosure, the waterproof sealant should be applied to a height of 180cm. If there is a bathtub, the waterproof sealant height on the wall adjacent to the bathtub should be 30cm higher than the bathtub. For aluminum alloy doors and windows, to ensure airtight and thermal insulation and prevent drafts, it is recommended to apply sealant on the gaps, clean the surface with a damp cloth, dry, and then apply the sealant. Maintain a consistent application rate and apply sealant on both sides of the door and window.
3. After applying the waterproof adhesive, allow it to dry for a period of time. This is necessary to ensure that the waterproof adhesive properly bonds with the substrate, enhancing the waterproofing effect. Therefore, a waiting period is required after applying the waterproof adhesive.
4、After proper waterproofing, it is necessary to test the effect. Waterproofing is a concealed construction, and subsequent construction may also damage the waterproofing layer, so it is necessary to check the experimental waterproofing effect.
What are the applications of waterproof adhesives?
1、Suitable for waterproofing and preventing water ingress in concrete, brick, and stone structures.
2、Suitable for waterproofing various concrete and brick structures.
3、Suitable for basements、Bathroom floor and walls、Kitchen、Waterproofing balconies and other absorbent surfaces.。
4. Suitable for use in kitchens, bathrooms, balconies, basements, and other similar areas.
5、Suitable for waterproofing projects on the ground of floor heating systems.
Waterproof adhesiveHow long does it last?
1、Minor exterior wall leaks can be directly sealed with a transparent exterior coating. This single-layer waterproofing solution typically lasts for 2-3 years.
2. However, waterproofing of the exterior wall is crucial for the lifespan of the building, and re-applying waterproofing every two or three years can be a cumbersome task. Therefore, many users opt to apply multiple layers of waterproofing. In this case, a combination of polymer cement mortar and transparent waterproofing adhesive is used. The transparent waterproofing adhesive can be used as the outermost protective layer, resulting in a waterproofing layer with an average lifespan of approximately 10 years.
