A two-component, solvent free, pure epoxy resin, used as a moisture vapour barrier on cement-based substrates containing high residual moisture.
- For professional use
- Low viscosity product with high penetration capacity in the porosity of the substrate
- Because of the absence of solvents, and very low odour it can be used in inhabited environments (e.g. hospitals, schools, offices, etc)
- Coverage: Approx 5m² per 1kg
- Shelf life: 24 months

Mixing
- The components should not be mixed until the application is ready to start and should be applied as soon as mixing is completed
- The two components are supplied in pre-measured ratios:
- Part A: 3 parts by weight
- Part B: 1 part by weight
- Mix the two components completely and accurately with a low speed mixer until a uniform mix is obtained
Application
Power Floated and New Substrates:
- The substrate should be abraded by mechanical means to remove any curing agents or contamination, to assist penetration and adhesion of the membrane
- The area should then be thoroughly vacuumed to remove all dust and debris
- Apply the first coat of Mapeproof ESM ensuring it is well worked into the substrate and that complete coverage of the area is achieved at a maximum rate of 20m² per 4kg unit (depends on the porosity of the sub-floor) and allow to cure (approx 5 hours)
- Apply the second coat of Mapeproof ESM at right angles to the first coat, again ensuring complete coverage
- When the second coat has cured, a coat of Eco Prim T Plus or Eco Prim Grip primer should then be applied within maximum 24 hours (primer drying times vary with ambient conditions i.e. temperature and humidity)
- The levelling compounds should be applied within 24 hours of the primer application
Sand/Cement and Existing Substrates:
- All existing materials, adhesives, laitance and contamination should be removed prior to preparation work commencing
- Any cracks in the substrate should be filled with Eporip
- Where the substrate has a textured or profiled finish, Latexplan Trade levelling compound should be applied to provide a level surface for the membrane to be applied onto
- Apply the first coat of Mapeproof ESM ensuring it is well worked into the substrate and that complete coverage of the area is achieved at a maximum rate of 20 m² per 4 kg unit (depends on the porosity of the sub-floor) and allow to cure (approx 5 hours)
- Apply the second coat of Mapeproof ESM at right angles to the first coat, again ensuring complete coverage
- When the second coat has cured, a coat of Eco Prim T Plus or Eco Prim Grip primer should then be applied within maximum 24 hours. (primer drying times vary with ambient conditions i.e. temperature and humidity)
- The levelling compound should be applied within 24 hours of the primer application
- If required, the second coat of Mapeproof ESM can be blinded with sharp sand (when still fresh), which removes the need for a primer
- It is essential that pinhole free coatings be achieved
Underfloor Heating:
- The screed must be allowed to cure for a minimum 28 day period
- The underfloor heating must be commissioned prior to the installation commencing; it should be turned on to +5°C and the temperature increased by +5°C per day up to a maximum +27°C, run at this temperature for several days then cooled down and switched off for at least 48 hours
- Up to a level of 97% RH, 2 coats of Mapeproof ESM should be applied
- The heating must then remain off for a further 48 hours (minimum) after completion of the installation, and when turned back on run at a maximum temperature of +27°C in accordance with BS 8203 and BS 5325
Cleaning:
- Mapeproof ESM can be cleaned from tools and clothing with ethyl alcohol while the product is still fresh
