SIKA Sikagard Waterproofing Protection Facade - 20L, prevents the infiltration of water inside uncracked materials. The air permeability remains however assured and the support "breathes". The appearance of the support is generally not affected by the application of the product, the protection is invisible and creates a significant beading effect. Advantages: Suppression of the effects of porosity masonry facades, concrete, mortar: an impregnation of Sikagard Protection Facade applied on the surface prevents water infiltration inside uncracked materials Air permeability ensured: the support " breathe Invisible protection: the application of Sikagard Protection Facade does not generally alter the appearance of the material that retains its pattern and natural colors Cleanliness of the facades exposed to rain: the water runoff on parts treated with Sikagard Protection Facade facilitates the elimination of dust, soot Improvement of thermal insulation: a dry wall has a coefficient of thermal insulation much higher than that of a damp wall Decrease of the attachment of the foams, lichens Read the instructions before use Characteristics: Density: 1 pH value: 11.5 to 13 Consumption: On mortar: 0.150 to 0.200 l / m2, either 1 liter for 5 to 6 m2 - On porous materials a preliminary test is necessary to determine the exact consumption Temperature of Application: + 5 C Capacity: 20L Color: Colorless Reference: 460379 Packaging: Comes in original packaging Tips: SUPPORT All substrates based on hydraulic binder (cement, lime ...) must have 28 days of age before application, in order to present sufficient surface carbonation. On monolayer coatings containing LIME and on clay materials (bricks, tiles, etc.) that may contain dissolved salts, a 72-hour pre-trial is recommended to check for the occurrence of efflorescence due to the dissolution of these salts. by the Sikagard Protection Facade. Clean and brush the surfaces to be treated, eliminate efflorescence. The support will preferably be dry. Protect windows, aluminum joinery, varnishes and paints.
