two-component flexible sealing slurry

Product Description lump free mixed BETEC FLEX with cei-

BETEC FLEX is a 2-component flexible
sealing slurry consisting of the fluid
component A (polymer dispersion, mi-
xing fluid) and of the powder compo-
nent B. BETEC FLEX is supplied in de-
fined proportioned packs easy to mix.
BETEC FLEX seals reliably hence
especially suitable for coating interior
and exterior areas against water and
dampness. BETEC FLEX is easy to mix
and apply to horizontal and vertical
areas. BETEC FLEX is light grey co-
loured; but can be dyed with alkaliresis-
tant fulltone and toning colours. BETEC
FLEX is non-corrosive as it is free of
Chlorides and rust developing additives.
After hardening this material is extreme-
ly flexible and highly abrasion resistant,
bridging drying shrinkage and hair-line
cracks. Due to a perfect blend of com-
ponents BETEC FLEX ensures high
bond to practically all surfaces, good
for coatings of workshops, industrial
floors, parking areas, walkways,
stairs, balconies and garages,
for sealing of floors and walls, pat-
ching of retaining walls, concrete
constructions, cantilever slabs of
bridges and warehouses.
ling brush, paint brush, plastic trowel,
rubber squeegee, roller or by spraying
onto the clean substrate well saturated
with water. For coating floors use BE-
TEC FLEX in liquid consistency (add
component A completely). First layer is
applied by trowel or roller, second one
by squeegee and spike roller for level-
ling. Vertical application is by ceiling/
brush or tooth trowel and smoothing
trowel.
Apply BETEC FLEX sealing texture in 2
coats of maximum 1-2,5 mm each.
Second layer can be applied as soon
as the first is walkable, however not
later than after 3 days. Final layer thick-
ness should not exceed 2-5 mm.
Hardening time at + 20 C:
walkable after approx. 16 hours
slightly mechanically loadable af-
ter approx. 3 days
fully loadable after approx. 7 days
Clean tools with water before BE-
TEC FLEX hardens

Specifications for using

permeability to water vapour as well as
excellent resistance to frost and deicing
salts, it resists high pressure water and
engine oil. BETEC FLEX is due it time-
saving application very economical.
Fields of application
BETEC FLEX is especially suitable
for waterproofing coatings of damp
rooms, shafts, tanks, sinks and water
reservoirs,
Mix component A + B only. Do not add
water. Pour approx. 3/4N/mm of com-
ponent A in a plastic container and add
component B (grey powder) slowly and
gradually during stirring at low speed.
Mix until a homogenous and lump free
material is achieved. Part of component
A or also the rest can be added as nee-
ded for desired consistency. Apply BE-
TEC FLEX on matt damp substrate on-
ly. Remove excess water and puddles
prior to application. Break edges in line
and prepare roundedge. Please consult
us in case or large repairs. Do not apply
BETEC FLEX below + 5 C or above
+ 30 C ambient, project and material
temperature. Apply homogenous and
