Technical Data Sheet
Damtite Waterproofing November 2020
Description:
A high-solid, water-resistant, acrylic resin
designed as an admixture for thin Portland
cement coatings, concrete repair/resurface
powder mixes, thin set mortar, tile grout, plaster
and stucco. It improves the adhesion, durability
and resistance to chemicals & acid by reducing
the surface permeability. Excellent additive
to Damtite Powder Waterproofers, thin-set
cements, grouts and packaged concrete mixes.
Ideal to improve the adhesion of coatings
over smooth non-porous surfaces, like poured
concrete, glazed tile and sandstone. Prevents
separation and cracking; increases cohesion,
tensile, compressive and flexural strength. Will
not yellow or discolor the coating. Use for
interior/exterior, above/below grade projects.
Surface Preparation:
Insure surface to be coated is sound and clean.
Remove any dust, dirt, mildew, oil, grease or
loose materials. Etch/neutralize salt-like, alkaline
deposit (efflorescence) or remove release-oil or
curing agent with Damtite Concrete Cleaner or
a mild acid and rinse well. Dampen area to be
coated or patched with clean water, but do not
leave puddles or standing water.
Mixing:
Shake well before using.
Important: When replacing water with this
product, never exceed the total quantity of
liquid recommended by manufacturer of the
mix.
Ratio with Damtite Powder Waterproofers or
other powder waterproofing coating brands:
- Bare non-porous or poured concrete
surfaces: 1 part Additive to 1 part water
- Sandstone, tile or pre-painted surfaces:
100% Additive; no water
Ratio with thin-set repairs 3/8” (10mm) max:
- 1 part Additive to 1 part water
Ratio with thicker toppings or grouts:
- 2 parts Additive to 1 part water
Tips: When applying a new coating to smooth
surfaces: Apply a thin primer film of full-
strength Additive with paint brush; apply
mix within 15 minutes when primer film is
tacky. Otherwise, if primer film hardens, a
reapplication may be needed. When applying
a new thin patch or resurfacing: First apply a
“slurry” coat, consisting of 2 parts Additive
to 1 part manufacturer’s powder and brush
onto dampened surface. When tacky to touch,
apply the patching material or resurface coat.
Curing/Limitations:
When rapid drying expected due to high
temperatures or wind, cover patch or coating
with wet burlap or similar material to retain
moisture for slower cure. This Additive will
not affect curing or set time of most products.
Refer to manufacturer’s label for normal
cure time, normally 24-48 hrs. Do not apply
finishes or patches below 50°F (10°C) or when
temperature expected to fall below 40°F (4°C)
within 24 hours. Any deviation from mixing
proportions or lesser quantity of Additive could
cause inadequate performance.
Cleanup/Storage/Disposal:
Clean all tools and equipment immediately with
soap and water. Cured material may require
scraping and cleaning materials for removal.
Product can be permanently damaged if frozen.
Store at normal temperatures with lid secured.
Dispose of unused or damaged product in
accordance with federal, state and local
requirements.
