The coverage rate for this product is 2.1kg per m² per mm.

This product can be applied by either brush, trowel or spray, and requires part water to be mixed mechanically using a forced action mixer or clean bucket, using a power drill and plaster paddle stirrer (max 500 rpm).

Pour the required amount of mix ratio water into a mixing bucket, add the Sika Damp Proof Slurry slowly, under continual mixing, until achieivng a uniform lump free consistency (approx 3mins).

Slurry application is then applied in even layers by a flat fibre brush on vertical surfaces, or a rubber squeegee or brush for horizontal surfaces.

A tooth trowel should be applied for Mortar application.

Wet Spray Equipment can also be used for a first coat, before a smooth second coat applied by either brush or trowel.

For over painting, a test area is required to check compatibility and adhesion.

Full preparation and application information can be found in the technical datasheet. 

This product can be applied to a damp wall assuming it is clean, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet. 

The technical data sheets can be found in the data sheets tab on the product page.

Thank you for the enquiry, please can you provide more information to [email protected] so we can assist with a recommendation.

The slurry is certified for below ground works, it will still allow the wall to breathe and can be used in external environments.

The slurry should always be applied to the base substrate if possible, in general, it can be applied to a stone surface however certain natural stones can cause poor adhesion so a small test is always worthwhile.

Mortar joints should be sound and flush with the stone and the stone surface as even as possible, a very irregular surface would need addressing first.

 When back filling care should be taken not to damage the slurry surface.

This can be used to water proof interior or exterior concrete, renders, brickwork and blockwork structures.

After application plaster board and or timber battens can be bonded to the wall, or finishing plaster applied.

It is not recommended to use gypsum based plasters.

Thank you for the enquiry, we have contacted you directly for more information to assist you further.

As long as the walls are of sufficient strength then this should be ok.

At the time of writing the data sheet states;

SUBSTRATE QUALITY / PRE-TREATMENT

The substrate must be structurally sound and free of all traces of contaminants, loose and friable particles, cement laitance, oils and grease etc. The concrete “pull off” (tensile adhesive) strength must be > 1.0 N/mm2.

To our knowledge Sika have nothing in their range which is reddish brown and a damp proof slurry.

They have;

• Sika Damp-proofing Slurry (Grey)
• SikaTop Seal 107 (Grey)
• Sikalastic 1K (Grey) 

The only other thing that may have been used would be a red/brown sharp sand with Portland cement mixed with Sika 1 Waterproofer Liquid Admixture that will be reddish brown but that will be site batched and not a pre-bagged product.

Although Sika Damp-proofing Slurry can be used on the shed floor to stop damp rising through the slab, we would recommend a protective screed on top, as the Sika Damp-proofing Slurry is a thin coating (2-4mm) that could be damaged if heavy machinery (lawnmowers, etc) are thrown on top. For the protective screed we would recommend SikaScreed HardTop 60 is used at 8mm thickness.

Yes, as long as it is non-gypsum based.
