Vetoproof UM765

All surfaces to be applied with Vetoproof UM765 must be clean and have an open capillary system. Eliminate laitance, dirt, grease, and other loose materials using high-pressure water jetting or wet sandblasting. Defective concretes such as cracks and honeycombs have to be chased out and repaired before the application.

Priming is not usually required on good quality concrete substrates; however, for highly porous or absorbent concrete, use Vetoseal XX777-50.

Apply Vetoproof UM765 by brush, trowel, or a gaged spreader at a thickness of 0.5mm. Use glass fiber scrim and joint tapes on corners and critical areas for reinforcement of the membrane.

Tiling over Vetoproof UM765 is possible; in such cases, spray sharp sand over Vetoproof UM765 while still wet, 24 hours later, remove all excess sand, and use a suitable tile adhesive from Saveto Tiling Systems Product Range to bond the tiles directly over the membrane.

Allow Vetoproof UM765 to cure for a minimum of 24 hours before placing protection. Protect the membrane with a cementitious screed or protection boards where damage to the membrane is possible.

Note: Vetoproof UM765 is not resistant to UV light.

Clean all tools employed to apply Vetoproof UM765 with Vetonit Solvent XX400 before it hardens; otherwise, mechanical means are needed.
