Zinsser Watertite Waterproofing Paint
Zinsser Watertite® Waterproofing Paint is an exceptional solution guaranteed to keep water out. This innovative paint contains a powerful biocide that safeguards the dried coating against fungal degradation for a minimum of 5 years.
Watertite® Waterproofing Paint features a unique solvent-based formula that combines a cutting-edge waterproofing resin with Portland cement. This powerful combination forms a protective coating capable of withstanding water pressure up to 34psi.
In addition to its waterproofing properties, this paint's biocide content offers extended protection against fungal degradation, making it ideal for surfaces prone to such issues.
Unlike other waterproofers, Watertite® can be applied to wet, dry, or damp surfaces, allowing for immediate resolution of water problems. It dries to a smooth, non-gritty finish with a bright white, non-yellowing appearance that resists dirt and dust pickup. With a quick four-hour recoating time, it ensures efficient application.
Watertite® Waterproofing Paint can be tinted to various off-white or pastel colours, providing versatility in design. Its ultra-low odour formula enhances the painting experience. It adheres flawlessly to any interior or exterior masonry surface, above and below grade, and is specifically formulated to prevent recurring efflorescence on concrete and brickwork.
Choose Watertite® Waterproofing Paint for reliable water protection, extended fungal degradation resistance, and a flawless finish. Experience its outstanding performance on a range of surfaces, ensuring lasting durability.
Application:
To ensure against accumulation of solvent vapours, be sure to open all windows and doors. Use a non-sparking exhaust fan to provide air movement. Extinguish all flames and pilot lights at water heaters and heating systems. Turn off air/heating systems at thermostat. Walls can be damp, but must be free of active water leaks. Stir thoroughly before and during application. DO NOT THIN. Apply when air and surface temperatures are 10°C or higher. Do not apply if heavy rain is expected within 24 hours. Liberally apply the first coat using a thick polyester bristle brush, or by rolling a small section (1m x 1m), and then using a brush to work the coating into the pores of the masonry. Apply as much paint as necessary to produce a continuous, pinhole free film. Use a 20-25mm nap roller for unpainted, porous surfaces, and an 18mm nap roller for smooth or previously painted surfaces. The second coat can be brushed or rolled. Do not over spread. WATERTITE® is a two coat system. The first coat primes and seals the surface. The topcoat completes the sealing process to ensure protection against water intrusion.
