Aquaban 100F is a two component flexible cementitious coating and reactive waterproofing for concrete or masonry surfaces, interior or exterior, above or below grade. AQUABAN 100F penetrates surface pores and interacts with free lime to create an integral mechanical and chemical bond and a dense waterproof coating. Once applied, its unique chemical action forms insoluble complex polysilicates from the soluble salts found in cementitious materials. As this integral bonding takes place within the pores of the substrate, a waterproof shield is formed which seals the inner structure of the treated surface. The dense flexible plaster like coating remaining on the surface of the substrate acts as an additional water barrier. AQUABAN 100F prevents intrusion of water, yet allows entrapped moisture to be released.

Limitations
  • AQUABAN 100F, as a flexible waterproof coating, can bridge all shrinkage and non-moving cracks less than 0.5 mm. Any flowing water present must be stopped before applying AQUABAN 100F.
  • For best results use AQUABAN 200 (see separate data sheet). AQUABAN 100F will not bridge dynamic cracks.
Coverage

22.7kg. (50lbs.) unit covers approximately 10 sq. m. (100 sq.ft.), giving an approximately 1.5 mm (1/16") thick coat. Actual thickness will vary due to the porosity of the surface.

Applications & Uses
  • Saturate masonry surface with water immediately prior to application. Using masonry or other large stiff bristle brush, apply aquaban 100f by working material into surface pores at the uniform rate of 100 sq.Ft. Per 50lb. Bag. Product must be worked into surface pores for proper result. If material becomes too thick for efficient application, add up to 1 liter water, 0.5 liter at a time, to 22.7kg. Of mixture to restore creamy texture.
  • Proper aquaban 100f treatment requires a minimum 1 coat application at the rate of 100 sq.Ft. Per unit. Two coat application at the rate of 200 sq.Ft. Per unit is recommended. Second coat may be applied after first coat has set, (usually about 90 minutes). Be sure to wet surface prior to second coat. If unusually great hydrostatic pressure and seepage exists, or is anticipated, the application of a third coat may be required.
  • Surface preparation - surface must be free of dirt, previously applied paints or sealers, and any loose material. Wire brushing, sandblasting or acid washing may be required. If acid washing occurs, surface must be repeatedly flushed with water to remove all trace of acid. Patch, repair and level extremely rough surfaces using masonry mortar or speedcrete with aquaban 300 additive (see separate data sheet). Important: surface must be wet prior to and during application. Keep surface moist following the application by mist spraying water or covering it with plastic sheet if necessary.
  • Mixing - mix 6 liters of clean water and 2 liters of aquaban 100f part 2 in a suitable clean container. Slowly add the part 1 powder to the mixture of part 2 and water in the container and mix thoroughly to achieve a creamy slurry. Material must be applied within one hour of mixing.
  • Guarantee - aquaban 100f is guaranteed to stop water seepage when mixed and applied according to directions on a properly prepared surface, except when leaks are due to a cracking of the substrate material itself. This guarantee is for a period of 2 years from the date of purchase, or the material will be replaced. This warranty is in lieu of any and all warranties expressed or implied. Pennkote assumes no liability for incidental or consequential damage due to defective material. Pennkote products, when applied in accordance with manufacturers instructions, will give years of satisfactory service. The user shall determine the suitability of this product for his intended use.
  • Maintenance - aquaban 100f coatings are virtually maintentance free and non-staining. Surfaces may be cleaned with detergents and water.

Technical Details & Test Data

Performance Data
  • To achieve the desired waterproofing properties, AQUABAN 100F is applied to clean, dampened concrete or masonry surfaces, as follows:-
  • Exterior Applications: AQUABAN 100F, applied in 2 coats to the face exposed to water penetration (positive side), will effectively prevent passage of water under maximum 0.077 MPa pressure (11 psi). AQUABAN 100F, applied in 3 coats, will prevent passage of water up to 0.3 Mpa (44 psi).
  • Interior Applications: AQUABAN 100F, applied in 2 coats to the face opposite possible water penetration (negative side), will effectively prevent passage of water under maximum 0.026 MPa pressure (3.5 psi). AQUABAN 100F applied in 3 coats will effectively prevent passage of water up to 0.154 MPa (22 psi).
