Gray cement-based, single-component crystallizing waterproofing mortar resistant to positive and negative water pressure, penetrating cement-based surfaces and forming insoluble crystals in capillary voids to provide permanent waterproofing.

APPLICATION AREAS
Applied horizontally and vertically with a brush or trowel to provide permanent waterproofing from both positive and negative directions on cement-based surfaces such as retaining walls, foundations and curtain walls, cold joints, elevator shafts, basement walls and ceilings, interior wet areas such as kitchens/bathrooms, concrete pipes, irrigation canals, water tanks, swimming pools, and dams in old and new buildings.

PRODUCT ADVANTAGES
Easy preparation and application prevents labor and time loss.
Penetrates cement-based surfaces. Even long after application, insoluble crystal formation restarts with each contact with water, filling capillary voids in the concrete and providing permanent waterproofing. It is resistant to both positive and negative water pressure, offering an ideal, easy, and economical waterproofing solution for challenging application areas.
Because it integrates by penetrating into the surface, it does not tear, break, or age.
It is resistant to freeze-thaw cycles and limewater.
It prevents corrosion and protects reinforcement from the harmful effects of water.
It can be applied to fresh concrete surfaces. By slowing down the hydration process of fresh concrete, it reduces the formation of shrinkage cracks.
It can be applied as a dry spray for waterproofing horizontal cold joints. It can be used in drinking water tanks; a certificate of conformity is available.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Application surfaces must be clean, sound, and free of dust. Adhesion-inhibiting substances (oil, dirt, dust, etc.) must be removed, and mortar and cement residues must be scraped off. Cracks and voids on the surface should be repaired with FORTE repair mortars at least one day before application. The application surface should be moistened with clean water immediately before application. Wait until the surface water has evaporated; ensure the surface is damp, not wet, during application.

SHELF LIFE
When stored in its unopened original packaging in a dry (60% relative humidity) and cool environment (temperature between +5°C and +25°C), the shelf life is 12 months.
