All surfaces must be structurally sound, clean, dry, and free from anything that would prevent proper adhesion. Cracks, joints, voids, etc. (1/8” or larger) should be pre-filled with a suitable patching material such as a high-quality wood filler, concrete patch material or Liquid Rubber Sealant & Adhesive (or equivalent).

Concrete should be cured for at least 28 days.

Be sure to perform a moisture test prior to application.

Liquid Rubber 3-Course-Method: For all cracks less than 3mm (1/8’’), cold-joints, non- monolithic inside/outside corners, pipes, wall/slab, wall/footing and wall/wall junctures apply a thick 6’’ wide coat and embed 4’’ wide Geo-Textile reinforcement fabric followed by a second coat (known as the 3 Course Method). For all cracks greater than 3mm (1/8’’) fill with backer rod, spray foam, expansion joint caulking or patching materials prior to 3 Course Method. Ensure the surface is smooth and flush and that patching materials have cured as per manufacturers recommendation prior to application of your Liquid Rubber Solution.

Tape-off, block-off, or otherwise mask area’s that are not to receive Foundation Sealant. Remove tape while Sealant is still wet.

Inspect for pinholes, blisters, voids, thin spots or other defects. Repair as necessary. Allow 48 hours to dry before backfilling. It is recommended to apply protection board or drainage board to protect your coating from other trades and work, during backfill, and from thermal expansion and contraction during its life.
