Description
Dr. Fixit Pidiproof LW+ is specially formulated integral liquid waterproofing compound composed of surface active plasticising agents, polymers & additives. It is used as an additive for cement concrete, mortar & plasters. It makes concrete cohesive and prevents segregation.

Standard Compliance/Specification:
Meets the requirements of IS : 2645-2003 and IS: 9103-2000 standards

Areas of Application:
Waterproofing of concrete and sand-cement mortars used in

• Basements
• Roof slabs and screeds
• Water tanks & water retaining structures
• External plastering
• Bathrooms and balconies
• Sumps and drains

Features & Benefits:

• Corrosion resistant - Makes concrete more cohesive, hence protects steel better against corrosion
• Compatibility – Being a liquid, easily dispersible & compatible with concrete/mortar mixes.
• Permeability – It reduces the permeability of water into concrete.
• Strength – The setting time and compressive strength of the concrete remains within the specification limits.
• Shrinkage – Reduces shrinkage crack development in plaster & concrete.
• Workability – Improves workability of freshly mixed cement concrete.
• Durability – Increases durability by improving waterproofing of concrete.

Method of Application:

• Charge cement & aggregates to concrete mixer as per the mix design, mix in dry state for 1–2 minutes.
• Start addition of 75–80% mixing water & mix for 2-3 minutes.
• Dr. Fixit Pidiproof LW+ is added as per the recommended dosage into the remaining mixing / gauging water,
• then add to concrete mixer & mix for another 2 minutes.
• Place the concrete or apply plaster, as needed.
• Cure the applied mortar or concrete as per good construction practices.

Precautions & Limitations:

• Do not add Dr. Fixit Pidiproof LW+ directly to dry cement & aggregate mix.
• Maintain water-cement ratio as low as possible.
• Do not increase the dosage of Dr. Fixit Pidiproof LW+ than the recommendation

Acrylic elastomeric exterior waterproof decorative coating for exterior walls

• High performance waterproof coating for all types of externally plastered & concrete walls, especially for the rain lashed walls. Unlike ordinary exterior paints, it provides dual benefit of aesthetics with waterproofing property to external walls.

Dr. Fixit Raincoat is composed of high quality acrylic emulsion polymer, light fast & weather durable pigments, properly selected & graded fine fillers, many additives & water as a medium. It is used as a waterproofing & protective coating for exterior walls of the buildings because it forms higher film thickness, has excellent flexibility, breathing properties, water resistance, crack-bridging ability, weathering durability and an excellent resistance to the growth of microorganisms.

Areas of Application:

• All types of exterior masonry surfaces, concrete, cement sand renderings, etc.
• Applicable on asbestos sheets.

Features & Benefits

• Film thickness - Higher film thickness provides resistance to the movements of structures, gives crack bridging ability & waterproofing properties.
• Flexibility - Flexible and covers hairline cracks(upto 0.5 mm) effectively so that no ingress of water.
• Toughness - Tough films withstands wind driven rain.
• Elasticity - High elasticity easily withstands stress caused by thermal expansion & contraction (>100% elongation at 110-120 micron DFT).
• Ready to use – No dilution is required hence ensures desired film thickness built-up without affecting the performance. } Microbial resistance – Resistance to fungus and algae hence maintains the aesthetic value.
• UV resistant – Resistance to UV (Sun light) hence coating has longer life.
• Dirt pick up – Very low dirt pick up & can be cleaned easily hence maintains the aesthetics.
• Breathability - Permeable to water vapour.
• Ease of application – User friendly, easily applicable by brush, roller or spray.
• Toxicity - It is Non-toxic
