Dr. Fixit Flexi PU 278
Introduction
In the world of construction and infrastructure maintenance, waterproofing isn’t just a protective
measure—it’s a necessity.
Whether you're dealing with rooftops, podiums, terraces, or industrial surfaces, ensuring long-lasting water
resistance is
critical to the life and durability of any structure. That’s where Dr. Fixit Flexi PU 278 comes in—a
solvent-based,
single-component polyurethane waterproofing membrane that offers powerful, flexible, and seamless protection.
Features
- • Seamless Waterproofing: Once applied, it forms a continuous, elastic membrane
without joints
or overlaps, ensuring superior water resistance even in the most vulnerable areas.
- • Superior Flexibility & Crack-Bridging: The polyurethane composition allows it
to stretch
and move with the substrate. It bridges hairline cracks, making it ideal for areas prone to thermal
movement or
structural shifts.
- • Resistant to Water, Frost & Chemicals: Flexi PU 278 can withstand standing
water, freezing
temperatures, and exposure to a variety of industrial chemicals, making it suitable for both residential
and
industrial settings.
- • Easy Application: It can be applied using a roller, brush, or airless spray
depending on the
surface area and accessibility, making it convenient for small patches as well as large-scale surfaces.
- • Long-Lasting Performance: It offers high mechanical strength and excellent
adhesion to concrete
and other construction materials, resulting in a durable waterproof barrier that lasts for years.
Step-by-Step Application Method
- • Surface Preparation: Clean the surface thoroughly to remove dust, dirt, grease,
loose
particles, oil, laitance, or contaminants. Ensure the surface is dry, structurally sound, and moisture
content is
below 5%. Repair cracks or voids with suitable filler.
- • Primer Application: Apply a recommended Dr. Fixit polyurethane primer using a
brush or roller
and allow it to dry completely (6–8 hours) before the main application.
- • Product Mixing: Dr. Fixit Flexi PU 278 is a single-component, ready-to-use
product. Stir gently
with a mechanical stirrer for 2–3 minutes. Do not dilute.
- • First Coat Application: Apply evenly using a roller, brush, or airless spray at
the recommended
thickness ensuring a pinhole-free finish.
- • Drying Time: Allow the first coat to cure for 8–12 hours until tack-free before
applying the
next coat.
- • Second Coat Application: Apply perpendicular to the first coat to ensure complete
coverage
and uniform thickness.
- • Final Curing & Protection: Allow curing for 24–48 hours before foot traffic
or overlaying
with screed or tiles. Apply UV-resistant topcoat for exposed areas if required.
Health & Safety
- • Always wear protective gloves, goggles, long-sleeved clothing, and respiratory protection if
ventilation is
inadequate.
- • Ensure proper ventilation in enclosed areas using exhaust fans or air movers.
- • In case of eye contact, rinse with clean water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention
if required.
- • In case of skin contact, wash thoroughly with soap and water. Do not use solvents.
- • Keep away from open flames as the product is solvent-based and flammable. Store safely away from
children.
