Wet Room Waterproofing
Newton 801 FlexProof-X1 is a highly advanced single component liquid waterproofing material, which forms an elastomeric polymer membrane that is splash proof in minutes and capable of handling severe building movements and deformations.
Newton 801 FlexProof-X1 is quite unique with amazing characteristics allowing it to be used without a primer, without mixing and in weather conditions that preclude the use of alternatives.
When applied by trowel to wet-room walls 801 FlexProof-X1 provides a continuous highly flexible membrane ready for the tiled finish.
Key Benefits
• No mixing required – simply open the packaging and use.
• No primer required – saving on primer and labour costs.
• Single coat application.
• 100% waterproof, but allows vapour diffusion.
• Very flexible – Resistant to movement and fissures in substrates.
• Excellent adhesion to suitable substrates.
• Resistant to temperature variations maintaining its characteristics between -40ºC & 90ºC.
Suitable Substrate
• Concrete and masonry walls.
• Insulated boards.
• Plywood.
