Krystal Coat
Krystal Coat is one-component crystalline waterproofing slurry that is specially designed to permanently waterproof both old and new concrete. It is modified with specially selected aggregates and active chemicals. It lowers the permeability of concrete and is used as a surface applied waterproofing membranes for improved durability and longevity of concrete. It works by penetrating the concrete pore and capillary voids and reacts with the available moisture and free lime to form a non-soluble crystalline structure within the network. When Krystal coat is mixed with water, the slurry formed can be applied by brush or spray and provides a waterproof layer that inhibit the penetration of water to all types of concrete structures.
