HIDROMAX 505 is an elastic two-component polymer-cement compound made on the basis of cement, selected fillers, water-repellent and waterproof polymers with added additives. It consists of a dry component A and a liquid component B, whose mixing produces a paste-like mass applied with a brush. It is used to protect buildings from capillary moisture and from water penetration under low pressure, as well as in situations requiring waterproofing under the influence of positive hydrostatic water pressure. It is recommended for waterproofing bathrooms, kitchens, buried walls, basement and foundation rooms, tanks and pools. It can be used in underfloor heating systems.
The surface must be: load-bearing, clean and free of loosely bonded parts, dust, water-soluble salts, grease and other impurities. Concrete surfaces, cement screeds and plasters must be at least 28 days old. Large hollows and surface damage should first be filled with repair mortar, concrete or KERAMOL tile adhesive. The contents of one 5kg bag (component A) are gradually added to 5kg of liquid (component B) with continuous mixing (mixing ratio 1:1), until a homogeneous mass suitable for brush application is obtained. The mass is left to rest for 10 minutes and mixed again. The mass prepared in this way is ready for installation and must be used within 1 hour. Before applying the waterproofing, the surface should be thoroughly soaked with water. The prepared mass is applied with a stiff, coarse brush, in two coats, crossing the coats. The second coat is applied immediately after the first layer has set but is not completely dry. Each subsequent layer is applied in the opposite direction so that the layers are crossed. For surfaces exposed to strong water influence, 3 or 4 applications may be needed. If the time between applying the two coats is longer than 24 hours, the previous layer is lightly sanded. The minimum total layer thickness is 2mm, and the maximum is 5mm. Corners, drains and pipe penetrations should be sealed with sealing tapes. The waterproofed substrate can be walked on after 3 days. Ceramic tiles can be installed after a minimum of 12 hours, depending on the layer thickness and climatic conditions.
Working temperature: The optimal working temperature is from +10°C to +30°C. It must not be used at temperatures of +5°C and +35°C, or in strong sun, wind, fog and rain. Under optimal conditions, freshly applied surfaces should be protected from atmospheric influences until the tiles are installed.
Consumption: ≈1.2-1.4kg/m2 for two coats, depending on the roughness and absorbency of the substrate, the technique and method of application.
Shelf life and storage: Component A - 12 months from the production date indicated on the packaging. Store in closed and undamaged packaging, in a dry and ventilated room. Component B - 12 months from the production date indicated on the packaging. Store in the original, well-closed and undamaged packaging, at a temperature of +5°C to +25°C, protected from direct sunlight.
