If the surface is dusty, it should be primed with a coat of

Nitoproof 10, diluted with an equal quantity of cool, clean
water and allowed to dry.
Standards compliance
Application
Nitoproof 10 complies with concrete curing requirements of

ASTM C309-93 when applied at a rate of 2m2 per litre and to
BS6949:1991 requirements for bituminous coating.
Nitoproof 10 may be applied by brush, broom or squeegee.
Description
It is recommended that one or two coats should be applied

depending on the degree of protection required. Allow a
minimum of 2 hours between coats.
Nitoproof 10 is a brown/black liquid blend of selected

bitumens emulsified with water to give an easily applied
protective coating.
Where the Nitoproof 10 is to take a screed, the second coat

should be blinded with clean, dry sharp sand as soon as
applied. The excess sand should be brushed off when the
coating has dried.
Specification
Cleaning
Concrete surfaces shall be waterproofed with Nitoproof 10,

a bitumen emulsion protective coating. It shall be applied at
a rate of 2 m 2 per litre, and thus act as a combined
waterproofing and curing agent in accordance with ASTM
C309.
Nitoproof 10 should be removed from tools and equipment
