Subliner Dry Waterproofing Sheet Membrane
Installation on floors or other suitable, non-waterproof underlayments or substrates.
The wedi products within the group of Subliner Dry Systems offer specific benefits in installations and applications complementing our traditional wedi
®
Building Panel
and Shower Systems. Subliner Systems are Sheet Membrane products, each designed to provide sound and thin profile underlayments for tile. Each of the system
components provide water- and vapor proofing as needed over common cement or fiber cement backer boards or mortar beds or other comparable and suitable
traditional structures for tiled applications in wet rooms. The wedi
®
Subliner Dry Sheet Waterproofing Membrane and its Subliner Accessories and components are sealed
and connected with 2” (50.8 mm) wide membrane overlaps. In between, wedi
®
Sealant 620, a specialty sealant, is used to water- and even vapor proof these connections.
Lay out wedi
®
Subliner Dry and cut
to size using a knife or scissors.
Apply thinset mortar to the
prepared subfloor using a 1/8 x 1/8”
(3.2 x 3.2 mm) or 1/4 x 1/4” (6.4 x 6.4
mm) notch trowel.
Insert wedi
®
Subliner Dry with the
printed side facing upward and
press on with a rubber roller or
wooden float. Remove air pockets
and other foreign particles from
below the sheets.
The sheets must overlap 2” (50.8
mm) at joints/transitions. Leave
these overlapping areas free of any
thinset and use tape to keep them
folded upward and/or clean. Once
the thinset has cured, apply wedi
®
Sealant 620 as a full bed onto the
lower mat’s seam connection area
and press the top overlap flap into
the wedi
®
Sealant 620.
Spread all the wedi
®
Sealant 620
flat using a putty knife. Cross joints
should be avoided.
In complete wet rooms, wedi
recommends to flash Subliner Dry
up the wall by 2” (50.8 mm) where it
is still invisible behind the
baseboard tile or wood
applications.
Start setting tile.
