Physical Properties

Application Instruction

Surface Preparation

All surfaces should be generally sound and clean. Cracks and joints should be cleaned and filled with Estoflex PU950 separately, allowing drying. Larger cracks should be chased  out to at least 10 mm wide and repaired with Estop joint sealing compounds such as Estojoint or Estolastic.

Base Screed (for R. C. flat roof)

Base screed with minimum gradient of 1:120, to receive Estoflex PU950, shall be laid if the floor is uneven and without required gradient, to achieve better waterproofing performance.

Metal Surface

For steel substrates, it is ideally to blast cleaning to SA2½ standard. Clean the metal surfaces and scrape off the flaking paint and any loose materials before application of Estoflex PU950.

Priming

The cleaned surface shall be primed by brushing the surface with 1 part Estoflex PU950 mix with 1 part of clean water and then apply directly to the surface to be waterproofed, in order to improve the bonding. Allow primer coat to dry. The priming  coat shall be extended at least 240mm up to all parapet walls.

Application

Pre-mix the material with slow speed mechanical stirrer for at least 1 minute.

Apply the first neat coat of Estoflex PU950 on the prepared substrate surface with squeegee, roller or by spray method. Leave it to dry for 4-8 hours in between each coat. Recommended thickness is approximately 1.0 mm in minimum 2 coats.

Optional

Incorporate a layer of Estop Fiberglass where necessary. Estoflex PU950 is very effective when sandwiched with Estop fibreglass to repair leaky gutters, down spouts, etc. to bridge cracks; corrosion etc. providing the damage is not  too extensive. Do not pour surplus materials down drain, wash all brushes immediately or keep immersed in water.

Protection

The applicator should also take precautions to protect the Estoflex PU950 membrane from any mechanical damage during the construction of other works to be carried out directly on the Estoflex PU950 membrane.
