Instructions

  • Preparation : Prepare the surface thoroughly by cleaning, washing and removing dust, dirt, oil, grease and loose particles.In existing old terraces with brickbat coba or screeds, the substrate must be checked for its soundness.
    Damaged or hollow portions, sharp edges, etc. must be cut and removed till the mother slab.
    The slab should be recoated with slurry of CHEMAX Hydroseal WH and cement in 1:1 proportion.
    After drying, the brick bat coba in that portion should be reinstated by mixing CHEMAX Hydroseal WH in the base slurry as well as while doing the top coba. In other areas, where the coba is sound, the surface cracks must be filled with Crack-X or polymer-modified mortar in case cracks are wider than 5 mm.
    Cracks less than 2 mm, should be cleaned free of dust with a vacuum cleaner.
    Apply CHEMAX Primecoat in the crack and let it dry. Then pour CX COOL-N-COOL HR into these cracks and wait for it to dry.
    Ensure that the roof slope of a minimum of 1 in 100, is already provided. Bitumen based waterproofing treatments if existing, must be completely removed by mechanical scarification or by any other effective mechanical means.
  • Application : Dilute 2 parts of CHEMAX Primecoat with 1 one part of water. This dilution will cover 7 to 8 sq.mt. Allow it to dry for 6 to 8 hrs.
    Apply the first coat of CX COOL-N-COOL HR without any dilution at the rate of 2 m2 per liter and allow it to dry before taking up the second and third coats, the rate of application being the same.
    In larger roofs, an open woven glass fiber mesh of 2.5 mm x 2.5 mm must be sandwiched between the first and second coat.
    While the 1st coat is still wet, place the fiber mesh on it. After the coat dries, start applying the 2nd coat of CX COOL-N-COOL HR. This improves the performance of the coating dramatically, to take care of all movements in cracks and cold joints in the substrate caused by variations of high and low temperatures.
    This reinforcement with fiber mesh shall be extended up to the drip mould over the angle fillets.Drying time between coats will be 6 to 8 hrs. Allow the system to air cure for 7 days minimum.
    A total thickness of 1 to 1.2 mm must be achieved when CX COOL-N-COOL HR is dry.
  • MAINTENANCE & RECOATING OF CX COOL-N-COOL HR : Over a period of time or some years, if CX COOL-N-COOL HR has developed cracks on exposure to weathering or extreme temperature variations, it is extremely easy to recoat over it again, with only one coat of application of CX COOL-N-COOL HR. Cracks if any, can be treated by placing a fiber mesh over a recoat, while it is still wet. After this dries, it would need an additional coat over the mesh to strengthen the area. In rest of the area where there are no cracks or damage on the surface, you can just go in for only one coat of CX COOL-N-COOL HR, after properly sanding the surface
