Description

Elastocolor Waterproof is a flexible, protective paint for outdoor applications made from acrylic resin in water dispersion and is perfectly compatible as a coloured finishing coat with Mapelastic, Mapelastic Smart and Triblock Finish. Elastocolor Waterproof may be used as the final finishing coat wherever a highly waterresistant paint is required after waterproofing surfaces with cementitious waterproofing products. Elastocolor Waterproof offers excellent resistance to all types of climatic conditions, aggression from smog and sunlight and forms a hard-wearing, protective layer on substrates which resists the rigours of time. Elastocolor Waterproof protects the substrate and gives it a highly attractive, even smooth finish. The product is available in 6 standard colours. Further colours may also be created according to individual samples by using the ColorMap® automatic colouring system.

Applications

• Painting general cementitious substrates to form a protective coat resistant to contact with water.
• Painting vertical surfaces or special architectural elements (such as domed roofs, elements particularly exposed, covering for parapets on balconies, terraces, etc.) after applying Mapelastic or Mapelastic Smart to waterproof and protect them from rainwater.
• Painting horizontal concrete surfaces not used for foot traffic, such as flat roofs or guttering, after applying Mapelastic or Mapelastic Smart.
• Painting swimming pools after applying Triblock Finish and Mapecoat I 600 W when the internal surfaces are not to be tiled.

Uses

Painting indoor and outdoor structures where the substrate needs to be covered with a flexible protective coating suitable for direct contact with water. Protecting horizontal concrete surfaces not used for foot traffic against contact with rainwater, such as flat roofs waterproofed with Mapelastic or Mapelastic Smart. Elastocolor Waterproof improves resistance to chemicals and acid rain and, if suitably coloured, reduces the absorption of sun rays and, therefore, over-heating of the surface. Painting architectural elements waterproofed with Mapelastic or Mapelastic Smart to provide sufficient protection against the sun, acid rain and atmospheric agents in general. Finishing off the internal surfaces of water tanks and swimming pools waterproofed with Triblock Finish and Mapecoat I 600 W where the skimming layer needs to be covered with a compatible, flexible finishing coating in permanent contact with water.
