Sika MaxMix Waterproofer - 1 Litre

Uses

The MaxMix Waterproofer by Sika is the ultimate admixture to enhance workability and water resistance in screeds, pointing and rendering. Sika scientists brewed this product with added air-entraining composite, increasing workability and reducing shrinkage, cracks, crazing, and mild frost damage caused during the curing process. It achieves its water resistance through its pore-blocking additives, which reduce water absorption and the chance of efflorescence. Areas of applications this product has been used in include;

• Tank and pool linings
• External rendering
• External pointing
• Structures below ground level
• Areas likely to experience dampness

Application

1. Shake the bottle thoroughly before use
2. Push the lid downwards and twist it anti-clockwise to remove it
3. Squeeze the sides to fill the measuring cup to the required dosage (20-40ml per 50kg of cement)
4. Add the MaxMix directly to a 10-litre bucket of water and stir it well
5. Dry mix your other ingredients and add the water/MaxMix solution until you achieve the desired consistency.
6. Remember to put the cap on the bottle after use.
