Super Latex Plus

Premium SBR based polymer for repair & waterproofing

Super Latex Plus is Styrene‐Butadiene Latex based liquid for high performance waterproofing & multi– purpose repair work.

Application Areas

	As waterproof repair plaster

	As bond coating – Concrete to concrete, plaster to plaster & over brickwork

	As crack repair – Plaster cracks around or more than 5 mm, in gaps between RCC structures & masonry

	As coating for Corrosion Prevention of rebars.

Features & Benefits

	Usability - Easy to use, non–toxic & slightly plasticizing mortar.

	Cost‐effectiveness – Rebound loss is minimum, when used as bonding agent.

	Permeability – Prevents seepage & dampness.

	Chemical Resistance – Reduces susceptibility to acids & greases.

	Bonding – Shows good bonding with concrete, brick & stones etc.

	Strength – Increases mechanical strength of mortar & hence inhibits cracking.

	Durability – Improves surface hardening & provides durability.

	Anti‐efflorescence effect – Provides minor protection against saltpetre action.

Method of Application

Surface Preparation

	Surface to be treated must be thoroughly cleaned from all kind of laitance, oils, grease etc.

	Mechanical means such as shot blasting, wire brushing can be used followed by vacuum cleaning of all loose materials.

	Make sure that the surface is damp but touch dry – before application.

Curing

3–5 days with wet cloth or water spray.

Usage Precautions

	Do not dilute beyond recommendation

	To be applied over damp substrate but in a tack free condition

	Waterproof coats with Super Latex Plus must be protected with palsters/screeds

	Not recommended for use in very critical concrete repairs While applying as a bond coat,

	if it becomes dry, re–apply to reach a tacky state for overlaying of concrete/mortar.

Application Areas	Mix Ratio Super Latex Plus : Water : (Cement)	Application Method
As Waterproofing Slurry: Residential water tanks \| Terraces \| DPC \| Chajjas \| Bathrooms As Bond Coat: Concrete to concrete \| Plaster to plaster \| For plaster over brickwork	1 : 4 : (6 to 8)	As Waterproofing Slurry: Brush apply the 1st coat \| While 1st coat is dry, apply 2nd coat (generally give 4–6 hrs between 2 coats) \| Overlay the 2nd coat with screed/plaster for finish/protection. As Bond Coat: Brush apply the 1st coat \| When the coat is tacky, apply the concrete/plaster as per requirement \| Do not add liquid ( Super Latex Plus : Water = 1 : 4) to the dry cement \| Mix 1 kg. of Super Latex Plus with pr-measured water for 50 kgs. of cement \| Use this mix to add to the recommended dry plaster mix \| Plaster mixes to be made as per the requirement \| Keep water:cement ratio as per the requirement, but not more than 0.45.
As Waterproof Repair Plaster As Crack Repair Plaster: Plaster cracks around or more than 5 mm \| In gaps between RCC structures & masonry	1 : 4 to 6 : (As required)	For Waterproof Repair Plaster: For better application apply a bond coat with Super Latex Plus as suggested earlier \| 2nd/final layer of plaster must not be mixed with the Super Latex Plus \| Add Cementmix Plus to the second coat plaster \| Scratch the 1st coat surface for effective bond with the 2nd coat. For Crack Repair: Clean the cracked area properly from all loose impurities \| Wet the crack completely with water \| Apply a single bond coat made as per the mixing ratio mentioned earlier \| Prepare the crack repair plaster as per the ratio mentioned along side \| Fill the crack with the above prepared mortar \| Compact it into the crack fully & finish to level with trowel.
As Coating for Corrosion Prevention of rebars	1 : 4 : (7)	Rusted rebars must be thoroughly worn out, mechanically \| Brush apply a single coat of prepared mix over the rebars \| Apply concrete/mortar when the coat is tacky.
For Efflorescence-free Plaster	1 : 4 : (7)	Brush apply the 1st coat on brick \| Apply 2nd coat after 1st one is dry \| Apply plaster when the 2nd coat is tacky.

Health & Safety Precautions

	Avoid prolonged skin contact

	Cementitious mortars & slurries mixed with Super Latex Plus, may release alkali which can be harmful to skin and eye. Hence, necessary precautions should be taken along with respiratory protective equipment

	Avoid contact with foodstuff & utensils

	In case of eye/mouth contamination, wash thoroughly with plenty of clean water immediately and seek medical advice

	Keep out of childrens' reach.
