AQUASHIELD
FX is specially formulated to provide high water vapour permeability
with very high resistance to re-emulsification upon long term contact
with water.
USES
- General waterproofing.
- Used on a wide variety of surfaces including concrete, brick,
bitumen & mastic asphalt membranes, asbestos cement, slates,
tiles, lead copper, zinc, corrugated iron and similar surfaces.

or with an open weave glass mesh.
- Also used to weatherproof exposed insulation, when used with a
reinforcing fabric, as above.
OUTSTANDING FEATURES
- Fibred extra flexibility
- Micro porous - breathes to stop blistering v No
re-emulsification in water
- Jointless finish
- Ease of application
- Non toxic, odour & taint free v High temperature stability.
- Solvent free (environment friendly)
INSTALLATION APPLICATION
The surface must be clean, free of dirt, dust and debris, grease
or oil. Over concrete, metal or brittle asphalt surfaces, prime with
BITUFAST before applying ELASTIFLASH. It does not require any heating
or thinning. It can be applied by trowel or putty knife.
DESCRIPTION
AQUASHIELD
FX heavy duty general purpose emulsion coating is a brush applied,
jointless bitumen compound. It is clay stabilized and reinforced with
non-asbestos fiber. It is used wherever extra flexibility and
stability are required.
