Application area

POLYSINT is a ready product and must be stirred to an even, fluid consistency before being applied, using a brush, roller or airless spray gun.

Before applying POLYSINT, make sure you remove any parts that are loose, crumbling away or unsound, along with any paint, rust, dust or form oils; surfaces must be thoroughly

cleaned, sound and dry.

You are advised against applying POLYSINT if it is about to rain, or if there is a chance of dew, fog or frost as the product could get washed off or not adhere to the treated surface.

Avoid temperature extremes during the film's application and drying time.

You must be sure that there will be optimal installation conditions for at least 24 hours prior to and following application.

Being a water-based product, POLYSINT is affected by freezing temperatures and must be applied with ambient temperatures in the +5 to +35 °C range.

POLYSINT is applied in 2 coats: the second coat must be applied at least 24 hours after the first coat has been allowed to dry.

In the event you wish to improve the product's mechanical strength, or where it is not being applied straight on top of prefabricated bitumen membranes, we recommend applying

POLIESTERE 60 reinforcement.

To apply the reinforcement correctly, embed POLIESTERE 60 in the first coat while the material is still wet, applying suitable pressure as you roll over it so that it is incorporated

into the coating.

The average consumption rate varies depending on the substrate and desired thickness. Whatever the case, the average consumption rate for the 2 coats without reinforcement

is 1-1,5 kg/m2; while with reinforcement, it is 1,5-2 kg/m2.

The substrate should not be too hot as this accelerates the film-forming process, running the risk of the product not adhering properly and losing cohesion.

Do not apply to bitumen membranes that have just been installed as the natural small amount of migration of oils in the compound might mean the product fails to adhere

perfectly.

We recommend waiting at least 6 months when dealing with torched-on bitumen membranes or other bituminous materials, and 3 months on cold-applied bituminous materials;

in all cases, give the surfaces to be treated time to oxidize.

POLYSINT reduces carbonation of concrete. After drying, it forms a strong, elastic membrane that adheres perfectly to the surface, like concrete and polymer-bitumen membranes.

POLYSINT is used to coat and waterproof concrete structures, fibre-cement, wood or polymer distilled bitumen membranes.

It is suitable for protecting concrete substrates with a pitch greater than 3% (to avoid ponding).

It is particularly suitable for protecting surfaces waterproofed with bitumen membranes surfaced with talc, sand or slate chippings.

The product is not recommended for application on surfaces showing clear signs of cracking, distress or failure of any kind, on which it would not be successful in remediating

the waterproofing.

PACKAGING
