The Evercryl by Everbuild is one of the sought-after products on the market. It delivers one of the best waterproofing coats available, instantly activating as soon as it's applied to the surface.

- Concrete

Preparation
Before commencing the application, you must check the surface. You must remove contaminants on the surface, including impurities such as dirt, dust, grease, organic growth and debris. You can remove this from the surface using a stiff bristle brush, and organic growth can be eliminated using a dedicated cleaner. Any rust on surfaces needs to be treated as well; this is achieved using a rust-inhibitive primer. All non-bituminous, porous or friable surfaces should be primed before application to allow the Evercryl to adhere correctly. Finally, any severe damage to tiles, slates, sheets or other forms of covering must be replaced. The Everycryl can fill small cracks and damages; however, it's not capable of fixing broken tiles.
