Proteus Hot Melt® System - Monolithic Structural Waterproofing

Pro-Prime® Bitumen.

Guidance for specification option:

Pro-Prime® bitumen is a low viscosity, high penetration, cold-applied bituminous solution designed to prime and seal porous roof surfaces before the application of bituminous materials. Proteus Pro-Prime® Bitumen seals porous substrates and promotes the adhesion of bituminous waterproofing systems and sheet coverings.
