DESCRIPTION
ALCO Foundation Coating
is a non-fibered, solvent based coating made up of refined asphalt and
solvent hydrocarbons. It gives an effective dampproofing protection to
exterior surfaces below grade, where hydrostatic pressure is not a factor.
USE
Ideal for
reducing dampness and moisture infiltration through foundation walls,
footings, retaining walls, tanks, culverts and bridge abutments.
Installation of protection board is recommended before backfilling to protect
dampproofing application.
ADVANTAGES
»
Easy application » Ready to use » Fast and economical way to protect concrete and
masonry foundations from moisture penetration
PREPARATION
The surface being covered must be clean, dry and
free from oil, form release agents and any foreign matter such as dust,
dirt, etc. Be sure all voids, cracks and rod holes are repaired with
fabric membrane. This material will not span large cracks. Use ALCO
Tri-County Trowel-On or ALCO 24/7 Flashing Cement and a fabric membrane
where applicable. Any repairs should be made before application.
APPLICATION
BRUSH:
Use a soft bristle brush
SPRAY: Use Graco 9:1 ratio pump or equal, capable of delivering 3 - 5
gallons per minute and a pole gun with a 3/32" tip. A 3/4" ID
material hose and a 1/2" ID air hose from the pump to the gun is preferred for most applications.
COLD WEATHER APPLICATION: For best results, material should be stored in a
warm warehouse and applied at a temperature of 40° F. or above.
