Waterproofing Chemical

Areas of Application

• Basements,
• Roof slabs and screeds,
• Water retaining structures,
• External plastering,
• Bathrooms
• Balconies.

Features & Benefits

• Corrosion - Chloride-free hence no chances of corrosion of reinforcement bars.
• Water seepage - As an effective pore filler, helps to fill capillaries and pores to prevent water seepage.
• Consistency - Makes the mix cohesive and denser, hence the concrete & plaster has reduced permeability .
• Economics – Most economical water proofing additive, reduces water absorption.
• Setting & strength - Does not affect the setting time and strength. Of the cured concrete.
• Compatibility – Compatible with all types & grades of cements.

Hand Mixing

• Add Dr. Fixit Powder Waterproof to the dry mix of cement sand and mix evenly with a spade, until an even mix is obtained.
• Add the measured quantity of potable water as per decided W/C ratio and mix to a homogeneous & uniform
• consistency concrete / mortars.
• Place the mixed concrete / mortar into shuttering, provided
• Cure the concrete / mortar surface as per regular practices of water curing.

Machine Mixing

• Charge the Cement & sand as per the mix design into concrete mixer & mix for one minute. Add 500 g of
