SC 200 EASY FLEX

High-performance and highly elastic, two-component, waterproofing cement based mortar

Highly elastic, two-component, waterproofing cement based mortar with excellent workability and ease of application. It is applied by roller. Suitable for applications in showers, terraces, swimming pools, water tanks. It develops high resistance to UV radiation and can therefore be exposed in roofs without traffic. Minimum required application thickness 2mm. SC 200 EASY FLEX has the ability to bridge cracks up to 2 mm in concrete or cement plasters.

Description

  • SC 200 EASY FLEX two component cement-based waterproofing mortar is suitable for waterproofing and protecting in:
    • concrete surfaces and cement mortars such as terraces, terraces and surfaces exposed to weathering
    • ground masonry such as foundations, basements, varnishes, etc.
    • existing coatings, such as tiles and natural stones
    • swimming pools, balconies and bathrooms before tile application
    • masonry materials such as gypsum boards, cement boards, etc.
    • crack bridges up to 2 mm
  • Form:
    • component Α΄: powder
    • component Β': liquid
  • Application thickness: Total thickness at least 2mm, 1mm per layer
  • POT life: ≈ 60 – 90 minutes /20°C
  • Walkability: after 2 - 5 hours
  • Application temperature: from +8°C up to +35°C

Substrate preparation:

The application surface must be clean and solid, without cracks, free of dust, laitance, form release agents, oil, paint and rust. Carbonized and degraded concrete should be removed till we obtain a solid and healthy substrate. If required repair by using RUST CONVERTER, NOVAFER and RC 340. Existing cracks on the substrate should be bonded by using the two component epoxy adhesive EPO FLUID. In applications where we have constant water infiltration from exterior (negative pressure) seal all the leakages with the cement based fast setting waterproofing product SC FAST. Always saturate the substrate with water and remove any excess in order that the substrate will be saturated but the surface will be free of standing water.

Existing flooring and / or wall coverings such as ceramic tiles, granite slabs, marbles, mosaics, etc. must be securely attached to the substrate and free of any residues that might affect adhesion. If necessary, clean the surface according to the type of pollutant with ALCALINE CLEANER or ACID CLEAN and rinse with clean water. For additional information, refer to the relative Technical Data Sheets of the products.

Preparation of the mix:

In a clean container pour component B (liquid 10 kg) and then slowly add component A (powder 20 kg) while stirring. Stir by means of an electrical mixer in low rpm (500 rpm) for 3-5 minutes until a perfectly smooth and homogeneous mix free of lumps is obtained. For small quantities mixing can be done also by hand. The mix is ready for use. Under normal conditions the mix should be applied within 60-90 minutes. After this period do not try to mix it again with water. Low temperatures extend the life of the mortar while, on the contrary, high temperatures drastically reduces pot life and workability.

Application:

Application should be made in two or more layers with a total thickness of at least 2 mm. Apply a first layer with a flat brush or roller on the properly prepared surface. Apply the second coat when the first one has hardened enough. For better thickness control, it is recommended to incorporate a
suitable alkaline fiberglass mesh such as NOVAMIX FIBERGLASS NET on the first layer of the mortar while it is still fresh and smooth the surface with a metallic spatula. In any case the application should overlap the entire surface with a uniform thickness coat. In all critical areas, such as a floor joint with walls and vertical construction elements, the sealing zone must be reinforced
using a suitable fiberglass mesh. After application, SC 200 EASY FLEX should be left to cure in a relatively humid environment. Protect the fresh mortar from rain, frost and fast drying by suitable means
.

Recommendations:

  • Apply only upon structurally stable and well-prepared substrate
  • Avoid application under direct sun exposure or/and strong wind
  • Do not add cement, gypsum, lime or other materials that might affect the properties of the mortar
  • Do not apply upon PVC and bitumen membranes and in general materials which polymerize in the long run
  • Do not apply in ambient temperatures less than +8°C and higher than +35°C
  • Protect the application surface from rain or frost the first 24 hours
  • Do not apply in swimming pools without covering with tiles or appropriate coatings
  • Bonding tiles should be done with cement-based adhesives categorized as C2
  • For incorporating fiberglass mesh the thickness of the first layer must be 1mm
  • Do not exceed the maximum thickness per layer
  • Do not apply in total thickness less than 2 mm
  • Do not wet between the layers
  • It is recommended that the application be made by a professional

Cleaning:

Due to the increased adhesion of SC 200 EASY FLEX, it is recommended to clean tools before the material starts to set. Once the material has dried, cleaning can be done only by mechanical means.
