This document provides information on AquaArm Tufcrete, a single component acrylic-based waterproofing and bonding agent for concrete and masonry. It improves tensile and flexural strength when used as a cement modifier. It can be used for minor waterproofing of surfaces like terraces, toilets, and tanks, and as a bonding agent for new and old concrete/mortar. The product comes packaged in 20-200 liter containers and has a shelf life of 12 months. It is applied in one or two coats depending on the surface and provides waterproofing and improved bonding.

It is an acrylic polymer, used as a cement modifier when applied provides good bond with masonry/ cement and thus improves the tensile and flexural strength properties of the mortar
Uses Features and Benefits
Minor Waterproofing of small terraces, Adhesion strength to the base concrete surface Toilets, chajjas, masonry surfaces, residential is distinctly improved, water tanks etc. The tensile and flexural strength increases in As a bonding agent for old and new concrete / Comparison to the reference mix mortar, mortar, useful as an additive for making repair Excellent bond to stone work plaster Compatible mortars/concretes. with all common hydraulic cements. Economical to use.
Application Method
Surface Preparation: As Bonding Agent: The substrate must be sound, surface must be CLEAN and permit a good surface adhesion so that the material Clean the surface thoroughly of its loose concrete, dust can bond well into the concrete. Horizontal areas should etc. and prewet with water to an SSD (Saturated have a rough surface. Smooth surfaces must be Surface Dry) condition. Ensure that there is no standing mechanically abraded in order to achieve good Bonding. water. Brush apply a single coat over the clean surface, Clean the surface to remove all loose particles. Repair to allow this coat to become tacky and then apply fresh be done for all cracks, honeycombs & Blemishes from concrete/mortar. If bond coat is dried, apply another to the concrete surface. Crack & wall Joints to be treat with ensure effective bonding. Proper Aso-Joint Tapes to be fix with flexible AquaArm TG/UM.
Mixing Instructions and Application:
Mix AquaArm Tufcrete as per the ratio mention in
the dosages.
Application:
As Waterproof Coating: The Surface should be properly prepared and avoid of any impurities. The surface should be pre-wetted and no dry areas lefts. Then Apply 1st coat and allow it to dry for approximately 5 hours. Apply 2nd coat and allow it to air cure for at least 3 days. Protect the coating with a mortar screed of 15-25mm thick from damage. Plaster over Vertical surfaces shall be done when the 2nd coat is tacky to ensure better bond with the surface.
