Application
ACTECH AT-988-CWP is designed to be used in conjunction with a below screed waterproofing system such as AT-929 SPU or AT-906 WPU.
Once the waterproofing system is applied to the substrate and has been allowed to cure, a cement screed is then laid to fall. Allow screed to dry for a minimum of 48 hours (in an aerated room) and then apply the AT-988 CWP.
As an anti-efflorescent membrane over cement screeds to internal wet areas that are to be covered by tiling system laid on screeds to fall to AS 3958.1.2 such as bathrooms, laundries etc.
As an anti-efflorescent membrane to external balconies, patios and podium levels that are to be covered by tiling on screeds to fall to AS 3958.1.
As a hydrostatic moisture barrier to the negative side such as basements, detention tanks etc.
