Product Description
Sovereign Aqua-Chek is a new, state of the art water based water repellent for masonry substrates.
A blend of alkylpolysiloxane in an aqueous dispersion of hydrophobic substances. Aqua-Chek can be used on a wide variety of porous building materials to impart water repellence. It is resistant to alkaline attack making it particularly suitable for use on fresh concrete, but has little effect on the water vapour permeability of substrates, thus allowing the wall to breathe.
Sovereign Aqua-Chek has the following advantages over conventional solvent based water repellents:
- Contains no solvent.
- Pronounced beading effect lasts much longer (years, not months).
- Virtually no change in surface appearance. Solvent based products can darken masonry considerably.
Aqua-Chek is a milky white emulsion, but dries clear on masonry.
Form Supplied: Liquid concentrate
Packaging: 5 litres – dilutes with water to make 15 litres ready for use
Coverage Rate: Typically 22m² per 15 litres of diluted product (2 coat application), depending on porosity of substrate
Colour Range: Dries clear
Shelf Life: 12 months unopened. Store between 5°C and 30°C
