Waterproofing Uses
- Retaining walls and underground surfaces
- External cellar and basement walls
- Planter boxes and garden beds
- Gutter repairs
- Roofing and membrane repairs
- Protective coating over metal and timer surfaces
Note: When exposed to long-term UV, surface crazing may occur
Substrates
Suitable surfaces for bonding Gripset 51 over include:
- Concrete, render and masonry
- Fibre cement, plasterboard and structural sheeting
- Marine ply, timber sheeting and timber posts
- Clay and concrete blocks/bricks
- Galvanised iron and zincalume (not raw steel)
- Bituminous and asphalt substrates
- Polystyrene
When using Gripset 51 over existing paints, membranes, coatings, or other surface finishes, confirm suitability with Gripset Technical Services. Gripset 51 can be applied over damp surfaces free of surface water; however, this will prolong curing.
Application and Coverage
For general waterproofing applications, the product is to be applied in a minimum of 2 coats at a total minimum coverage of 1.5litres/m² forming a minimum dried film thickness of approximately 1.2mm.
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.
