To provide a waterproofing membrane to building and
civil engineering structures in a variety of situations
such as:
• Tiled floors in bathrooms, shower rooms,
kitchens and plant rooms
• Foundations and basement structures
• Suspended floors, parking decks and
promenades over utilised areas
• Balconies, roof terraces and patios
• Inverted roofs (Consult our Technical
Department for additional information)
• Non potable water retaining structures,
sewage tanks, inspection pits and tunnels
• Single component which requires no mixing
or heating
• Excellent adhesion to most common
construction substrates
• Highly flexible with excellent crack bridging
properties (up to 2mm)
• Good application characteristics by brush
or spray
• Excellent water resistance and low vapour
permeability
• UV resistant when applied on exposed surfaces
• Moisture tolerant
• Resistant to cracking at low temperatures and
does not suffer flow at high temperatures
• Good resistance to industrial environments
• Mositure tolerance capability
Surface Preparation
Concrete surfaces must be float or shutter finished.
The surfaces must be free of cavities and projections. Blockwork or brickwork must be flush pointed
and of a uniform finish.
The surfaces should be made dry, clean, dust an frost
free to expose a sound, clean substrate.
Priming Application
Priming is not normally necessary on good quality
concrete, however for particularly porous or metal
surfaces, SpECtite HP600 Primer must be used.
SpECtite HP600 should be applied after the primer
has become touch dry, usually 2-4 hours following
application, but before it has fully reacted.
If the SpECtite HP600 is not applied within 48 hours
after priming, the surfaces should be re-primed.
Application
SpECtite HP600 should be applied by brush, roller
or airless spray equipment at a thickness of 1mm in
two coats.
On vertical surfaces, it may be necessary to achieve
the correct film thickness by applying two coats with
lighter loading to avoid slump especially when working at a high ambient temperature. Apply 2 coat systems at right angles to each other to ensure an even
coating application. If a flood test is to be done,
allow a minimum curing period of 10 days. The first
coat should be touch dry prior to the application of the
second coat. The second coat should in any event be
applied within 12 hours of the first coat becoming
touch dry.
When continuing membrane application from day
joints, an overlap of 250mm should be made.
Protection
In certain conditions, particularly where back filling
against SpECtite HP600 is anticipated, protection
board should be used.
SpECtite HP600 is supplied in 18 litre
drums. SpECtite HP600 Primer is supplied in 5
litre and 15 litre drums.
Coverage rates may vary depending on the substrate. As an average on a smooth surface, the
cov-erage rate for SpECtite HP600 is 1m²/litre at
1mm WFT and 6-10m²/litre for SpECtite HP600
Primer.
