Used to provide a long-lasting waterproof membrane on roofs and terraces with 0% slope, ARCATHANE is a liquid, elastic modified polyurethane membrane based on innovative technology - long-chain polyurethane macromolecules are incorporated in a water medium forming stable dispersions. ARCATHANE offers the high level properties of solvent based products in an ecological, consumer and evironmentally friendly, water-based, low VOC, no ADR transport product.

When waterproofing a roof or roof terrace having a minimum slope of 3%, ARCAROOF can be used.

 

PRINCIPAL USES

• waterproof flat roofs and roof terraces having 0% slope
• balconies 0% slope
• terraces 0% slope
• decks and wet areas (under tile)
• protection of polyrethane foam insulation
• waterproof and protect concrete constructions, drywall, cement boards, wood, metal, etc

 

Instructions for use

 

ARCATHANE POLYURETHANE WATERPROOF MEMBRANE

 

	Application Conditions Do not apply in temperatures <5°C or >80°C, if wind, rain, freezing.   Surface Preparation Optimum performance is achieved by using the right combination of products, surface preparation and application procedures. Careful attention to the preparation of the surface is essential: Surfaces to be coated must be dry, clean, sound and free of all contaminants, loose particles, dirt and dust. The humidity of the substrate must not exceed 8%. Scrape and brush off all moss. The surface must be disinfected with a fungicidal product such as ARCAMOSS. Wait 24 to 48 hours before applying ARCATHANE to a treated surface. New concrete surfaces must have been left to dry at least 28 days before applying the ARCATHANE. Old surfaces must be levelled out before application (cracks and irregularities filled in with a polyurethane mastic). Careful sealing of existing cracks and joints before the application is extremely important for long lasting waterproofing results. Fill all prepared cracks and joints with a polyurethane sealant. Let dry min 48 hours.   Application Tools Apply with a paint brush or roller. Application on flat smooth surface requiring no reinforcement mesh: 1st coat: Dilute the product with 5 to 10% water and apply. This % will depend on the porosity of your surface. Let dry 24 to 36 hours. 2nd coat: Apply a coat of undiluted product (as you would a paint). Let dry.   Application over repaired joints, cracks or weak spots requiring the use of the reinforcement mesh: Repaired joints, cracks or weak spots such as protruding pipes, internal angles, chimney flashings etc. must be reinforced with ARCAMESH. 1st coat: Apply the 1st coat ARCATHANE, immediately embed the ARCAMESH (pressing the mesh firmly into the wet coat smoothing out any air bubbles with a dry roller or trowel) and apply a 2nd coat: to firmly embed the mesh and saturate the surface «wet on wet». Let dry 24 to 36 hours. 3rd coat: Apply a coat of undiluted product (as you would a paint). Let dry..   Storage Can be stored in dry and cool rooms for up to 9 months. Protect the material against moisture and direct sunlight. Storage temperature: 5-30oC. Products should remain in their original, unopened containers, bearing the manufacturers name, product designation, batch number and application precaution labels.
