Directions for Use

Preparation of Substrate:

Application surface must be dry and clean. Remove materials which may prevent bonding, such as dust, oil, rust and loose pieces. Pores and cracks should be filled with BATIMIX Mortar 605 or BATIMIX Mortar 622. To ensure strong adherence, avoid dust. To improve durability, metallic surfaces must be undercoated with BATIMIX Bituminous Coating 710-SP.

Application Method:

BATIMIX Bituminous Coating 720-WM is a ready-to-use material, that is cold applied. After mixing it well, it is applied with a trowel, bitumen brush or spray gun. It dries within 4-5 hours depending on weather conditions. It should not be applied in rainy days or at temperatures lower than +5 °C. A second layer is applied after the first layer is completely dry. For applications that require higher durability against water pressure, or on cracked surfaces, it must be reinforced with fiber glass, polyester felt, reinforcing fabric etc.

A screed material obtained by mixing BATIMIX Bituminous Coating 720-WM with sieved fine sand and cement is applied with a trowel to smooth out and level the surface, or to provide a protective coat over insulation.

Consumption:

Approximately 0,80 – 1,0 kg/m2 for each layer. It is recommended that at least 2 layers be applied.
