A much easier to apply alternative than other waterproofing solutions such as membranes , Bond It tanking slurry consists of a cementitious powder fortified with polymers and aggregates .
This powder needs to be mixed with water until it has a silky , batter-like consistency . The resultant slurry can then be applied to walls or floors with a masonry brush or trowel . The slurry penetrates the porous passageways of the stone or brick before drying to create a barrier that is impermeable to water .
Under normal circumstances , no priming is required with Bond It tanking slurry . Instead , walls simply need stripping back to the original masonry . This means removing any plaster or render along with any previous coatings such as bitumen or paint .
Any loose mortar joints should also be raked out and replaced , and any other loose material removed so that sure the walls are dust-free .
Once applied , Bond It tanking slurry is fully effective after just two coats .
One solution . Numerous uses . On top of its impressive ease of application , Bond It tanking slurry offers the added benefit of exceptional versatility .
Whilst tanking slurries are commonly associated with basements , cellars , sunken garages and other rooms below ground level , Bond It tanking slurry can also be used as a DPC in walls and floors above ground , such as those within a wet room prior to tiling .
In addition , it can form an effective waterproofing barrier when used on stone , masonry , brick , and concrete . This makes it ideal for a wide array of buildings - from modern homes to older properties and even commercial buildings .
When using any tanking slurry , it ’ s also important to repair any cracks or holes in the wall or floor as these can be potential inlets for water . Bond It can answer the needs of the trade in this area too with our Plug It rapid setting cement . As its name suggests , this product cures in under 2 minutes to create a watertight barrier .
Bond It tanking slurry enjoys full WRAS ( Water Regulations Approval Scheme ) approval and is supplied in 25Kg sack . It is also resistant to positive and negative water pressure up to 7 bar . Bond It Plug It rapid setting cement meanwhile is available in a 5Kg tub .
