Surface preparation
Optimum performance is achieved by using the right combination of products, surface preparation and application procedures. The surface to be treated must be dry, sound and prepared prior to application.
Ensure that all the laitance has been removed from the surface with a standard cement residue remover.
Repair all active cracks with ARCAROOF/ARCAMESH (or eventually ARCADECK + ARCAMESH) before treating. In presence of large cracks over a large surface area, contact our technical services.
Use ARCAFIX, a water resistant binding material, to reinforce crumbling cement and masonry substrates before applying ARCADECK.
Tiling should be rubbed raw through abrasion or sanding before application.
Wait 28 days before painting on a new fresh cement block. Eliminate any cement film or laitance with an acid wash before applying.

Application
Apply a primer coat (50% ARCADECK, 50% water) to the substrate. Let dry 1 to 2 hours.
Apply a 1st coat of undiluted ARCADECK - 0.750 L/m2 Let dry 24 hours.
Apply a 2nd coat of undiluted ARCADECK - 0.750 L /m2
Note: 1.5 L per M2 should be used. If you are under these amounts, an additional coat should be applied.
* Do not cover ARCADECK with gravel.
