Penetrating waterproofing · multi-substrate
Penetrates 2-3 mm into the concrete surface and cross-links densely, curing porcelain-like at the surface. Unlike film-forming waterproofing it does not peel — so peeling that leads to leaking never happens.
Penetrating versus surface film: different mechanism, different result
A low-viscosity two-component system penetrates the capillaries of the concrete and cross-links and cures porcelain-like within the top 2-3 mm. The waterproof layer is part of the substrate itself, so delamination between layers is not a failure mode.

Where Waterproof Series is used
Concrete element reinforcement · Anti-seepage sealing for terrazzo / stone / ceramic and similar high-traffic areas, where film durability and cleaning tolerance matter most.
- Penetrates 2-3 mm into the substrate
- Surface cures into a porcelain waterproof layer
- 4H hardness, extreme abrasion resistance
- 3000 h water resistance
- 4000 h ageing resistance
Full specification
Where to use it, where not to
Suitable for
- Concrete element reinforcement
- Anti-seepage sealing for terrazzo / stone / ceramic
- Concrete colour-corrective coating
- Bathroom / basement waterproofing
- Garage floor protection
- Swimming pool (as part of a system)
Not suitable for
- Through-cracks without structural repair
- Areas with ongoing leakage where the pressure source has not been eliminated
Substrate → mixing → coating → curing
Substrate requirements
Application steps
- Mix parts A and B in the stated ratio and stir until uniform with no colour streaks
- Apply two coats by brush or roller; recoat after the first is touch-dry
- Cure to specification; avoid direct sun and strong wind that dry the film too fast
- The water-ponding test may only be carried out after curing is complete
Different from conventional coating systems
| Film formation | Water evaporation, particle coalescence | A/B cross-linking cure |
| Film structure | Thermoplastic, softens with heat | Cross-linked, dense, porcelain-like |
| Pencil Hardness | Typical product level | 4H◊ |
