Multipurpose 5-in-1 Application: Functions effectively as a waterproofing agent, a high-adhesion bonding agent for fresh-to-old concrete, and a polymer modifier for cement screeds, grouts, and repair mortars.
Exceptional Water Resistance: Being an SBR (Styrene Butadiene Rubber) emulsion, it makes the mortar waterproof, offering excellent resistance to water and water vapor penetration, ideal for roofs, basements, and water tanks.
Significantly Improved Adhesion: Provides extremely good bonding to a wide range of substrates including concrete, stone, brick, and steel, reducing the risk of delamination in renders and screeds.
Enhanced Durability and Flexibility: Improves the toughness, flexibility, and tensile strength of cementitious mixtures, effectively reducing cracking and increasing resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and frost damage.
Ready-to-Use White Liquid: Supplied as a milky white liquid in a convenient 20 Kg Pail, fully soluble in water and added directly to the gauging water, maintaining workability while allowing for a reduced water-cement ratio.
