dry conditions and out of direct sunlight.
5. INSTALLATION
Preparation
• Surface must be clean, dry, hard and free from dirt, loose
particles, wax, sealers, curing compounds, grease, paint,
efflorescence, and any foreign materials that will inhibit
adhesion.
• Walls must be plumb and true with square corners, free of
movement, and structurally rigid and sound enough to
support the veneer finish.
• Poured concrete or concrete masonry unit (CMU) walls must
be fully cured (28 days).
Notify the architect or other designated authority in writing of
any defects or conditions that prevent a satisfactory veneer
stone installation.
In case of truing or leveling the work of others on concrete
surfaces, use a concrete repair product like Vinyl Cement Patch.
Note: It is the responsibility of the installer/applicator to ensure the
suitability of the product for its intended use.
Mixing
No mixing is required. Gently stir to re-blend if needed, prior to
application.
Application
• Apply Moisture Barrier only to surfaces that are frost free and
between 40F°-90°F (4°C-32°C) within 24 hours of application
and 72 hours thereafter.
 Do not apply in direct sunlight on hot, windy days, or when
rain is expected within 24 hours.
 Color will be purple when applied, dries to dark brown, with
no visible purple color. Manufactured color and cure color
may vary.
Pre-treating of corners
1. Using a paint brush fill corners and all cracks or wall/floor
intersections that are greater in width than 1/32” (1 mm) and
smaller in width than ⅛ ” (3 mm). Allow to dry.
2. Apply a second coat of the Moisture Barrier and allow to dry.
Wall Application
1. Trowel, brush, roll, or spray two coats of Moisture Barrier. For
trowel application, use a 3/16 in.x¼ in. (5x6 mm) V-notch
trowel spread the material with the trowel at a 45° angle,
then flatten the ridges. Roller should be ⅜ in. (9.5 mm) rough
textured, apply a continuous even film, overlapping strokes.
For spray application, use an airless sprayer with 1900-2300
psi, a flow rate of 1.0-1.5 gpm, and a tip orifice size of 0.125
-0.129. Apply a continuous film with overlapping spray.
2. After allowing the first coat to completely dry, apply a second
coat at right angles to each other to assure any pin holes are
completely filled. Apply to a minimum total thickness of 30
wet mil thickness, approximately 15 mil per coating. Check
the mil thickness periodically during the application with a mil
gauge to assure complete coverage and that the thickness is
minimum 30 wet mils.
3. Drying time will take approximately 1-1½ hours but may
vary due to the environmental conditions. Color will be purple
when applied, dries to dark brown with no visible purple
color. Manufactured color and cure color may vary. Additional
coats of Moisture Barrier can be applied if necessary.
4. Do not bridge over existing expansion or control joints.
Note: Moisture Barrier is not designed for use as a wear surface.
The stone veneer should be installed within 24 hours after the
second coat of Moisture Barrier has dried.
