Application and Coverage
Where applicable, the application of Gripset 2P must comply with the following standards:
- AS3740- 2010 – Waterproofing of wet areas within residential areas
- AS4654.2 2012 – Waterproofing membrane systems for exterior use – above ground level
The product is to be applied in a minimum of 2 coats at a total minimum coverage of 1.5 litres/m², forming a minimum dried film thickness of approximately 1.2mm. For immersed applications, the product is to be applied at a total minimum coverage of 2litres/m², forming a minimum dried film thickness of approximately 1.6mm. Apply subsequent coats in different directions to the previous coat. Coverage is dependent upon surface condition and will vary accordingly, as uneven and porous surfaces will require greater coverage to achieve the specified film thickness. The product can be applied with a medium nap roller or brush. For retainer walls and other underground applications, Gripset recommends applying protection boards with Gripset BRW sealing strips to ensure the membrane is not damaged.
