  • When using Fescon WS waterproofing compound, the substrate’s relative humidity must be < 90%, with Fescoseal A+B waterproofing compound < 95%

Mixing

  • Concrete and cement-based levelling compounds: 1 part of primer and 3 parts of water
  • Substrates that do not tolerate moisture, such as gypsum boards on floors and wood substrates: Not to be thinned.
  • Mix the product before use by turning the package avoid shaking.

Application

  • The primer is spread thinly using a brush. Fescon primer must not be applied so much that it creates puddles.
  • The primer must be dry before the waterproofing compound or leveling compound is spread (1–4 hours, depending on the conditions).
  • Highly absorbent substrates (such as in-situ cast concrete floors or renovated floors) are primed twice. The first layer with a ratio of 1:5 (1 part primer, 5 parts water), and the second layer with a ratio of 1:3.
  • Wash tools and equipment with water immediately.

Other points to note
