Application

Product application:

  • Purpose: Create an airtight seal across masonry surfaces, preventing uncontrolled air leakage and ensuring continuity of the building’s airtightness layer.
  • Substrates: Suitable for brick, blockwork, stone, mortar joints, and other porous mineral surfaces.
  • Typical areas of use:
    • Junctions between brick/block walls and windows, doors, or structural elements.
    • Gaps, cracks, and imperfections in masonry walls.
    • Service penetrations and junctions between dissimilar materials where airtightness is required.
    • Integration with airtight membranes, tapes, and liquid-applied coatings.

Preparation:

  • Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, laitance, grease, or loose particles.
  • Remove friable material and brush down surface prior to application.
  • Prime highly absorbent surfaces with compatible Intelligent Membranes primer if required.

Application method:

  • Apply using a stiff brush to work product into joints, cracks, and surface texture.
  • Ensure continuous coverage with no pinholes or gaps.
  • Apply at a wet film thickness of approximately 1–2 mm.
  • For wider gaps, embed reinforcing fleece or apply in multiple coats.

Conditions:

  • Ambient and substrate temperature: Minimum +5°C during application and curing.
  • Protect from rain and frost until fully cured.
  • Allow product to cure before overcoating with membranes, renders, or finishes.

Clean-up:

  • Clean tools with water immediately after use.
