Henkel Polybit Polythane P, Liquid Applied Waterproofing White 20L

Surface preparation:
1. Clean all surfaces and make them free of dust, dirt, moss, oil, grease, and other loose particles. This can be achieved by grit/sand/shot blasting. As a minimum, vigorous wire brushing should be employed.
2. Repair all pinholes and surface defects with a suitable Polycrete* concrete repair mortar.

Priming:
1. Polythane P does not require priming and can directly be applied onto the concrete surface.
2. In case of highly porous surface, a priming coat is recommended to seal the pores and stabilize the surface. The primer coat can be produced on site by diluting Polythane P 1 to 1 with water.
3. Apply the primer coat @ 5m²/L and allow to dry.

Mixing:
1. Polythane P is a single component product but mix the contents of the pail thoroughly prior to application to remove any sediment.
2. A slow speed drill and suitable paddle mixer shall be used to avoid the formation of air bubbles.

Application:
1. The coating can be applied with a brush, roller, or airless spray and shall be applied in a minimum of 2 coats.
2. The 1st coat shall be allowed to dry completely before the 2nd coat is applied.
3. The 2nd coat shall be applied crosswise to the first coat.
4. The coating will achieve its full strength after a curing period of 7 days.

Corner detailing:
1. It is recommended to reinforce all corners with Ceresit CL 252 sealing strip.
2. The sealing strip shall be embedded into the first coat while it is still wet and covered fully with the second coat.

Polythane P has several benefits, including:

1. Highly elastomeric, tough, and resilient membrane formation.
2. Environmentally friendly and low VOC.
3. Completely free from coal tar and other hazardous ingredients.
4. Single component and easy to apply.
5. High tensile strength and elongation.
6. Excellent crack bridging properties.
7. Excellent UV resistance, weatherability, and color retention properties.
8. Excellent resistance to water and vapor.
9. High resistance against chlorides, sulphates, bacteria, oil, and common fuels.
10. Suitable for waterproofing wet areas like bathrooms, toilets, public showers, and kitchens, as well as for waterproofing roofs, terraces, balconies, domes, aluminum sandwich panels, and corrugated sheets.
11. Can be used as a protective and decorative coating on exposed concrete surfaces, both vertically and horizontally.

Polythane P has a coverage of 0.8L/m²/coat for 1.5mm DFT (Dry Film Thickness) in 3 coats.

What makes Polythane P environmentally friendly and low VOC?
Polythane P is environmentally friendly and low VOC because it is completely free from coal tar and other hazardous ingredients. It has a VOC content of less than 20 g/l, which is well below the regulatory limit. Additionally, it is a single component product, which means that it does not require any mixing with other chemicals that may be harmful to the environment.

Can Polythane P be used on both vertical and horizontal concrete surfaces?
​Polythane P is environmentally friendly and low VOC because it is completely free from coal tar and other hazardous ingredients. It has a VOC content of less than 20 g/l, which is well below the regulatory limit. Additionally, it is a single component product, which means that it does not require any mixing with other chemicals that may be harmful to the environment.

How does Polythane P resist chlorides, sulphates, bacteria, oil, and common fuels?
Polythane P has high resistance against chlorides, sulphates, bacteria, oil, and common fuels due to its specially selected polymers that form a tough, flexible, and durable coating. The coating is highly elastomeric, tough, and resilient, which makes it resistant to water and vapor. Additionally, it has excellent UV resistance, weatherability, and color retention properties.
