What is Liquid Rubber?• An asphalt emulsion coating
engineered to provide exceptional adhesive, elastic & waterproof properties.
• Spray or brush applied at ambient temperature.
• Cures into a seamless membrane – Waterproofing ability– Corrosion resistance– Chemical resistance – Encapsulation.

Liquid Rubber ideal to waterproof Retaining Walls
• Quick application
• Excellent flexibility for structural movement
• Flexibility allows bridge small hairline cracks
• Extreme adhesion to the substrate
• No Flames, Torches or Fumes
• Environmentally Friendly – no VOCs

Waterproof Preparation
• Aim is have substrate smooth, dry and free of contaminants.
• May require primers/patch work ensure surface as monolithic as possible.
• However difficult to fill all surface defects.
• Unfortunately many of these defects only show after waterproof membrane application.
