DESCRIPTION
#2005V - MASONRY WATER REPELLENT is a stable
penetrating water repellent that was developed to treat a wide variety of
mineral substrates.
THIS
PRODUCT IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR BELOW GRADE APPLICATION WHERE HYDROSTATIC
PRESSURE CAN BE SIGNIFICANT.
PROPERTIES
#2005V - MASONRY WATER REPELLENT is vapor
permeable to resist cracking, and blistering by allowing carbonation to
continue after application. It can improve the adhesion of paints to mineral
substrates when used as directed.
USE
#2005V - MASONRY WATER REPELLENT is used as a
water repellent on architectural concrete, concrete bock, spilltface block,
porous and denge brick, clay tile, exposed aggregate,
sandstone, slates, and cement based stucco and concrete pavers.
It can also be used to stop rising dampness through damp proof injection into
cementicious walls. It provides excellent water repellence on these substrates
to reduce cracking, spading, and freeze/thaw damage. It also prevents of
chemical degradation, biological growth, efflorescence, and dirt pick-up. It
provides excellent beading for improved aesthetics. It has low VOC emissions on
curing and is EPA compliant.
CURING
The drying time
of #2005 –
MASONRY WATER REPELLENT is 48hrs. After a period
of 72hrs., it is completely cured and will realize maximum water repellence.
APPLICATION
TIME
After mixing #2005V - MASONRY WATER REPELLENT, it
must be used within the following 75hrs. as it is not a stable product.
Blending
generally improve over time. For best results, it should be applied within 48
hrs. after mixing.
Water Vapor Transmission – After #2005 -
MASONRY WATER REPELLENT has fully cured, it remains vapor permeable and does
allow moisture to escape.
COVERAGE
The coverage
rates for #2005V - MASONRY WATER
REPELLENT will vary greatly depending upon the substrates and substrate
porosity. Concrete pavers sustain the lowest
averaging 1m2 per liter or 40sq.ft. per gallon. Architectural
concrete block and clay tile covers an average 1.85m2 – 2m2
or 75-80sq.ft. per gallon. Spiltface block, stucco, porous brick and sandstone
covers average between 3m2 – 3.8m2 per liter or
125-150sq.ft. per gallon. Exposed aggregate concrete and dense brick will cover
average 8m2 – 8.5m2 per liter or 325-350sq.ft. per
gallon. Slates will cover 11m2 per liter or 450sq.ft. per gallon.
APPLICATION
PROCEDURES
Job Conditions – Air and surface
acceptable for the application of #2005V
– MASONRY WATER REPELLENT must be at least 4oC, and must remains
so for a period of
at least 48hrs.
Apply material only on clear days when relative humidity is less than 85% and
temperature and forecast are to remain above 4oC. Do not apply when
precipitation is imminent or forecast within the following 24hrs.
Protection – No special protection is
required for #2005V – MASONRY WATER
REPELLENT. It is necessary that the treated area shall be protected from
rain and not be disturbed from weather, solvents, or handled until it is a
cured form.
Surface Preparation – Surface preparation
depends upon substrate placement; type ands strength, curing and finishing
processes, age, condition, previous contamination, and the presence of previous
coatings. Surface should be free from dust, dirt, oils, grease, curing
compounds, other coatings, efflorescence, and laitance before applying #2005V – MASONRY WATER REPELLENT.
Clean Up – Cleaning methods are
compatible with the application of #2005V
– MASONRY WATER REPELLENT as follows: (Mechanical) - abrasive blasting,
sand, baking soda, vacuum. (Chemical) - Acid etching, stripping, solvent
degreasing, caustic soda scrubbing, alkaline soda scrubbing, high pressure
washing. (Heat) - propane and acetylene torching. If acidic or caustic cleaning
agents are used, neutralize the surface and completely wash to remove any
residues. Before using any surface preparation method, a test application
should be performed with customer’s approval to ensure that their needs are
met.
New concrete
should be allowed to cure for a minimum of 28 days before
applying #2005 -
MASONRY WATER REPELLENT, in addition, any repair work should be performed at
least 3 days prior to #2005 - MASONRY WATER REPELLENT is applied.
Application – #2005V - MASONRY WATER REPELLENT can be applied by brushing,
spraying on, or dipping. Coats of the solution should be applied using a wet on
wet procedure to ensure completely covered.
Disposal – #2005V – MASONRY WATER REPELLENT must be disposed of according to
Federal, State, and Local regulations. It should be treated as dilute solutions
of Silicon Resins that are non - RCRA (Resource Conversation and Recovery Act),
or non-hazardous waters.
STORAGE
#2005V – MASONRY WATER REPELLENT must be stored
at a continuous temperature of at least 4oC or higher. Storing in
temperature closet to normal room temperature 21oC.will result in
easier application.
ALWAYS
AVOID FREEZING.
Always store in tightly sealed container and away from direct sunlight. Shelf
lives of all SEALMARK products are for a period of 1 year after products are
manufactured.
As with any type
of application, take the appropriate steps necessary to ensure that clean up of
#2005V – WATER REPELLENT is achieved
with minimal effort. This means property tarp/secure application area
as to prevent
unintended application as product may prove to be difficult to remove.
SOME
WALL SUBSTRATE MAY HAVE BEEN COATED WITH A CLEAR SILICON WATER REPELLENT THAT
WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE ADHENSION OF SEALMARK PRODUCTS. IF APPLICATION OF
THE SILICON TREATMENT IS UNKNOWN. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT A TEST APPLICATION BE
APPLIED TO THE SUBSTRATE AND CHECKED ADTER CURING FOR ADHENSION.
