ARDEX ARDICOAT™ PLUS
Two component cement-based acrylic waterproofing compound
- Highly flexible to bridge hairline cracks
- Reduces chloride penetration by 90%
- Low VOC’s – Solvent-free
Information ARDEX ARDICOAT™ PLUS
ARDEX ARDICOAT PLUS is a two-component system consisting of a liquid acrylic emulsion and a blended cement powder that produce an easy to apply waterproof coating for all types of concrete and masonry on horizontal or vertical surfaces above, on and below grade. Typical applications include foundations, block wall, balconies, parapet wall, planter boxes, non-potable water tanks and fountains.
Key Features
- Portland cement-based, acrylic-modified, fiber-reinforced waterproofing membrane
- Fiber reinforcement enhanced strength
- Highly flexible to bridge hairline cracks
- Reduces chloride penetration by 90%
- Low VOC’s – Solvent-free
- Trowel or spray apply on horizontal and vertical surfaces
- Suitable for institutional, commercial and residential applications
- Breathable membrane
