Asian Paints Damp Proof Xtreme Salt Shield

Product description

Leakproofs by Betterwork specifies and applies Asian Paints Damp Proof Xtreme Salt Shield as part of a complete waterproofing system. A material on its own does not stop a leak — what stops it is the right material chosen for the right defect, on a surface that has been properly prepared. That is why we deep-scan before we specify.

Where Asian Paints Damp Proof Xtreme Salt Shield is used

This product is specified for terrace, walls, damp walls.

• Walls and terraces where efflorescence keeps returning
• Buildings on saline groundwater with rising damp
• Coastal elevations carrying airborne chlorides
• Surfaces where previous coatings blew off from behind

Suitable substrates: RCC, Plaster, Masonry.

How it is applied

Applied over a substrate from which salt-contaminated plaster has been removed and which has been allowed to dry. Coating over active salt bloom without removing the contaminated layer first will fail regardless of how salt-resistant the product is.

Preparation is the part that decides whether the system lasts. Loose material and failed old coatings are removed, cracks are cut and filled, and the surface is cleaned and brought to the moisture condition the product requires before anything is applied. Skipping that stage is the single most common reason waterproofing fails in its first season, whichever brand is on the tin.

Key properties
