Quicseal 119

QUICSEAL 119 – Aquapoxy Epoxy Membrane for Negative Pressure Applications

Product Description:

QUICSEAL 119 is a two-component, water-based epoxy polyamide membrane/barrier coating designed for use in negative water pressure applications. It serves as a waterproof and vapor barrier in various applications, including preventing rising damp in floors, acting as a barrier/sealing coat over freshly laid or damp concrete, resisting negative hydrostatic pressure in below-grade surfaces, and serving as a waterproofing barrier in tanking applications, including potable water containment.

Advantages:

• Withstands 250kPa hydrostatic pressure (25 meters head of water).
• Can be applied to damp surfaces (in saturated surface dry condition).
• Can be applied to freshly laid hardened (green) concrete.
• Versatile in use, compatible with various finishing paints.
• Excellent adhesion to most substrates, including brick, masonry, concrete, stone, and timber.
• Environmentally friendly, safe to use in sensitive locations.
• Easy cleanup using water, non-flammable, and negligible odor.
• Prevents rising damp and the formation of efflorescence.

Application Instructions:

Surface Preparation:

• All surfaces must be structurally sound.
• Remove existing coatings, adhesives, efflorescence, etc.
• Surfaces should be cleaned from dirt, grease, oil, and other contaminants.
• Concrete floors should be sandblasted to remove surface laitance.
• Fill holes or cracks with QUICSEAL 119 epoxy mortar.
• Prime with 10% diluted QUICSEAL 119 or use a slurry bonding coat.

Priming:

• If applied to dry concrete, dampen the surface with water before priming with diluted QUICSEAL 119.
• Achieve a dry film thickness (D.F.T.) of 300 microns for optimum performance.

Mixing & Installation:

• Stir Components A & B individually, then mix together in a 1:1 ratio.
• Apply QUICSEAL 119 onto the prepared surface at a spread rate of 0.3 liters per m2 per coat.
• Embed QUICSEAL Fabric into wet coating using a steel roller.
• Allow 4–5 hours before applying the second coat.

Coverage and Thickness:

• Apply at a rate of 0.66 ltr/m2 in 2 coats to achieve a minimum DFT of 300 microns.
