Verify substrate is free of bond-inhibiting or bond-breaking materials such as curing
compounds and dust.
Repair all cracks and seal surface from running water and contaminants prior to
application
Do not apply over unprimed galvanized steel.
Contact Technical Services for applications where the product will be exposed to
chlorinated water.
Suitable Substrate
► Sound, Stable Concrete ► Woods and Plastic
► Tiles ► Bricks
► All Metals ► Glass
► Exterior Grade plywood, shiplap, tongue and groove.
► Veneer, plastic laminate, Glue-laminate Wood.
► Masonry Block free from dirt (Parged where required by local codes)
► Foamglas® Block
Consult Inflow Solutions LLC Technical Services Department for installation recommendations
regarding any substrates and conditions not listed.
Substrate Preparation
All substrates must be structurally sound, dry, solid and stable. The surface shall be
clean of dirt, oil, and grease and free of loose impediments.
The surface may be damp (not wet). However any running water must be sealed or
contained through relief pipes that are commonly used in grouting work.
Mechanically clean the area to be sealed (use a stiff wire brush or equivalent)
Complete structural repairs to substrate prior to application of the Rubberseal™ Roll-On
or Trowel.
When applying over existing installations of Rubberseal™ Spray Grade, thoroughly
wash the area of application with fresh water, and wipe dry before applying the material.
Mixing
Rubberseal™ Roll Grade must be thoroughly mixed using a paddle mixer at SLOW (approx.
100 RPM) speed. Caution: Mixing at medium or high speed may cause separation of the polymer, creating
small chunks of material in the product. Mix for 5 minutes prior to installation, until material is entirely
homogenous (any film will return to solution with mixing).
If material sits more than 3 hours, remix for 5 minutes. Do not add water, solvents, or any other
materials to the product.
*****Rubberseal™ Trowel Grade does not require mixing prior to use.*****
Note: Choose all appropriate safety equipment before use. Refer to MSDS for more information.
PRODUCT APPLICATION
Roll Application – Rubberseal™ Roll Grade may be applied using a standard 3/8” (8mm) nap
roller with standard cage in small areas. When applying over large areas, ensure that a dual
mount caged roller is used. Roll material onto concrete and spread evenly to achieve a thorough
depth and film consistency of at least 15 mil WFT (wet film thickness) on the first coat.
Once dry, apply additional coats to realize > 30 mil DFT (dry film thickness) for damp-proofing
applications, and >60 mils DFT for waterproofing applications. Damp-proofing applications, and
>60 mils DFT for waterproofing applications. Ensure no voids are present in the application.
