Dr. Fixit Chemical

Product Details:

Dr. Fixit Waterproofing Chemical is specially formulated integral liquid waterproofing compound composed of surface active plasticising agents, polymers & additives. It is used as an additive for cement concrete, mortar & plasters. It makes concrete cohesive and prevents segregation.

Areas of Application

Waterproofing of concrete and sand-cement mortars used in

• Basements,
• Roof slabs and screeds,
• Water tanks & water retaining structures,
• External plastering,
• Bathrooms and balconies,
• Sumps and drains

Features-

• Corrosion resistant - Makes concrete more cohesive, hence protects steel better against corrosion
• Compatibility – Being a liquid, easily dispersible & compatible with concrete/mortar mixes.
• Permeability – It reduces the permeability of water into concrete.
• Strength – The setting time and compressive strength of the concrete remains within the specification limits.
• Shrinkage – Reduces shrinkage crack development in plaster & concrete.
• Workability – Improves workability of freshly mixed cement concrete.
• Durability – Increases durability by improving waterproofing of concrete.

Method of Application -

• Charge cement & aggregates to concrete mixer as per the mix design, mix in dry state for 1–2 minutes.
• Start addition of 75–80% mixing water & mix for 2-3 minutes.
• Dr. Fixit Pidiproof LW+ is added as per the recommended dosage into the remaining mixing / gauging water, then add to concrete mixer & mix for another 2 minutes.
• Place the concrete or apply plaster, as needed.
• Cure the applied mortar or concrete as per good construction practices

Precautions & Limitations -

• Do not add Dr. Fixit Pidiproof LW+ directly to dry cement & aggregate mix.

Product Details:

Dr. Fixit Raincoat Cool is a heat reducing & ‘Energy Saving’ acrylic waterproofing coating. It is composed of specially selected reflective additives, light fast & weather durable pigments & graded inert fillers. It is a solar reflective coating on exterior walls which helps in reduction of enery usages by less heat transfer into buildings & keeps the interiors cool . The coating serve the dual purpose of thermal reduction & with additional waterproofing protection.

Areas of Application -

• All types of exterior masonry surfaces, concrete, cement sand renderings, etc.

• Solar Reflective - Re-radiates most of solar heat back into atmosphere, thus lowers the surface
• temperature.
• Durability - Provides long time protection to building that are endangered due to thermal degradation
• Waterproofing - Excellent waterproofing increases the durability of structure
• Shades – Available in wide range of pastel & selective dark shades
• Elastomeric - High elasticity withstand stress caused by thermal expansion & contraction.
• Microbial resistance - Resistance to fungus and algae growth, hence maintains the aesthetic of buildings.
• Eco friendly -Non Toxic water based system
• Energy Saving – Low heat transfer into building hence reduction in electrical consumption
• Ready to use – No dilution is required.
• Substrate temperature reduction up to 8ºC.

Method of Application -

• Surface Preparation: on Cementitious Surfaces
• All new cement-sand renderings /concrete surfaces should be allowed to age 6 to 8 weeks before surface coating.
• Surface for treatment must be thoroughly cleaned of all laitance, loose material, oil, grease, etc. by
• mechanical means such as wire brushing & shot blasting. Finally vacuum cleaning of all loose solids and
• liquids can be done, if required.
• All surface cracks up to 5 mm width should be filled up with Dr. Fixit Crack-X.
• Cracks more than 5 mm and all separation gaps should be filled up with Dr. Fixit Pidicrete URP modified mortar or as specified.

Priming -

• Attain SSD condition before priming, Prime with Dr. Fixit Primeseal (2 part primer : 1 part water)
• Apply with brush or roller.

Application -

• Use Dr. Fixit Raincoat Coool directly from the container. Stir contents well before use.
• Apply 2 coats of Dr. Fixit Raincoat Coool without any dilution by brush or roller at an interval of 5-6 hours.
• For enhanced protection, apply additional coat of Dr. Fixit Raincoat Coool on rain lashing walls, chajjas and parapet walls.
• Allow the coated surface to air cure fully for 7 days

Precautions & Limitations -

• Do not dilute.
• Always to be kept as final coat. i.e. No overcoating on Dr. Fixit Raincoat Coool.
