How to use Sika Proof Liquid Water-Proofer:

• SikaProof should be dispensed into the mixture with the gauging water.
• Cement mortar mixes must be proportioned as fit for purpose to ensure durability in terms of density and strength.
• Protect all mortars etc from premature drying.
• Careful surface preparation is essential to achieve a durable bond to the substrate.
• Ensure the substrate is sound, clean and free of dirt, dust and grease.
• Remove all cracked, loose and flaking render, plaster and paint.
• For porous substrates first pre-wet and prime with a bonding slurry consisting of cement and SikaBond SBR+.
• Apply mortar directly working wet-on-wet
