Liquid Waterproofing

Overview

Liquid waterproofing is the process of making a surface or object water resistant in given conditions by applying a liquid coating to it. The liquid coatings, whether single-or multiple-component, are easy to apply and provide long-lasting protection to metals, wood, concrete and other surfaces.

Liquid waterproofing involves the application of a monolithic, fully bonded, liquid-based coating to the substrate. The coating cures to form a rubber-like elastomeric waterproof membrane, capable of stretching and returning to its original shape without damage. Such coating systems are usually reinforced with secondary materials such as glass-reinforced plastic to provide additional tensile strength.
