A plasticising and waterproofing additive for mortar, pebble dashing and external renders. Improves the workability of sand/cement without the addition of lime. Once cured the mix has a much reduced porosity thus extending service life. Reduces suction in layers of render, keeping the topcoat workable for longer.
 
Form Supplied: Liquid concentrate
 
Packaging: 5 litres and 25 litres liquid concentrate
 
Application Rate: 1 part concentrate to 30 parts of gauging water. See technical data sheet if more than one additive is being used
 
Colour Range: Pink viscous liquid
 
Contains: Blend of silicate and fatty acid
 
Shelf Life: 12 months unopened. Store between 5°C and 30°C
 
Sovereign Waterproofer gives excellent workability to both mortars and renders. Once cured the cement mix will have a much reduced porosity leading to an extended service life. 
 
When building up layers of render the addition of Sovereign Waterproofer will reduce the suction of the initial coat reducing the likelihood of the top coat cracking due to flash drying. This is particularly useful when pebble dashing as the surface remains “wetter” for longer allowing more time for the aggregate to be placed. 
 
Waterproofer can be used with other admixtures, e.g. rapid hardeners, but they should always be added separately, not together. The dilution factors should be adjusted where necessary.
