POOL SHELL - PRIMARY - WATERPROOFING
Basecrete Intercept is a highly penetrating, highly viscous concrete densifier, to be used as the Pool Shell, Primary, Waterproofing. Upon application, BC Intercept penetrates deeply into the concrete matrix, on a molecular level, searching and filling out all the voids that exist within any concrete structure. BC Intercept bonds with the free Calcium and Lime within the concrete, transforming itself into a dense waterproof barrier of colloidal silicate gel. It is important to note that the concrete remains able to “breathe” allowing vapors from within the concrete to escape.
APPLICATION:
- Each 5 Gallon Pail covers 500-700 sqft pending the porosity of the concrete.
- Apply Basecrete Intercept with a low-pressure pump-type sprayer.
- Apply two coats in quick succession removing excess material immediately.
- Do NOT allow excess material to dry on the surface.
***Use with Basecrete Waterproofing Bondcoat for a complete waterproofing system in swimming pools, spas, fountains, and other wet area applications***
