Thanks to its thixotropy, it is easily applied to vertical, cured and sloping surfaces. The product has additionally the following properties:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Forms a continuous, elastic, waterproof and vapor-permeable membrane, without seams or joints.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Features excellent adhesion to various substrates, like concrete, cement mortars, metal, wood and most waterproofing membranes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Applicable even to irregular substrates.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is suitable for waterproofing:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sloping roofs, flat roofs and balconies, as exposed waterproofing membrane.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Gypsum and cement boards.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Under tile layers in bathroom, kitchens, balconies and flat roofs, as long as quartz sand is broadcast on its last layer.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Under thermal insulation boards on flat roofs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In construction works, such as highways, bridge decks, tunnels, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Substrate Preparation<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">In general, the substrate must be dry (moisture content &lt; 4 %) and free of grease, loose particles, dust, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">1.1. Concrete surfaces<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Any existing cavities in concrete should be repaired in advance. Severe cracks on the substrate must be primed locally and after 2-3 hours (depending the weather conditions) must be sealed with polyurethane sealants FLEX PU-30 S or FLEX PU-50 S. Concrete and other porous surfaces with moisture content &lt; 4 %, should be treated with the primer PRIMER-PU 100, at a consumption of approx. 200 g\/m2. Surfaces with moisture content &gt; 4% should be primed with the special two component polyurethane primer PRIMER-PU 140, at a consumption of 100-250 g\/m2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">1.2 Smooth-Non-absorbent surfaces<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Smooth and non-absorbent surfaces, as well as surfaces with bituminous membranes or other old waterproofing layers, must be primed with the water-based epoxy primer EPOXYPRIMER-500, thinned with water up to 30% by weight. The product is applied by brush or roller in one coat. Depending on the weather conditions, ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is applied within 24-48 hours from priming, as soon as the moisture content falls below 4 %.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Application-Consumption<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Before application, it is recommended to slightly stir ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO, until it becomes homogeneous. Excessive stirring should be avoided though, in order to prevent air entrapment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">a) Total waterproofing of the surface<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is applied by brush or roller in 2 layers. The first layer is applied 2-3 hours after priming and while PRIMER-PU 100 is still tacky. The second layer should be applied crosswise after 8-24 hours, depending on the weather conditions. In case of dense, multiple cracks all over the surface, it is strongly recommended to fully reinforce ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO membrane with 100 cm wide polyester fleece strips (60 g\/m2). These placed strips must overlap by 5-10 cm. In that case, 2-3 hours after priming, the first layer of ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is applied, in order to cover the reinforcement (to a width of 100 cm), and while still fresh, a strip of polyester fleece is embedded. The same application process is followed in the remaining surface. Then, two extra layers of ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO are applied on the entire surface.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">b) Local waterproofing of cracks<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">In this case, the primer is applied on the substrate only along the cracks, to a width of 10-12 cm. Two-three hours after priming, the first ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO layer is applied and while still fresh, a 10 cm wide polyester fleece strip (60 g\/m2) is embedded lengthwise. Two extra ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO layers are applied along the cracks, completely covering the reinforcement.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">c) Waterproofing under tiles<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is applied by brush or roller in 2 layers. ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO should be locally reinforced along joints and wall-floor junctions, by embedding a 10 cm wide polyester fleece strip (60 g\/m2) on its first layer, while it is still fresh. Then, two extra ISOFLEX-PI 500 THIXO layers are applied along the cracks, completely covering the reinforcement. After applying the final layer and while this is still fresh, quartz sand must be broadcast. The quartz sand must be completely dry. Consumption of quartz sand: approx. 3 kg\/m2. After 24 hours, any loose grains should be removed with a high suction vacuum cleaner.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"standard-arrow bullet-top\"><ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In case of application by spray, as well as at temperatures of less than 10oC, it may be dilted, only with the special solvent SM-28, up to 10%.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is not suitable for contact with chemically treated water of swimming pools.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Temperature during the application and hardening of the product should be between +5oC and +35oC.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"standard-arrow bullet-top\"><ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Substrate temperature must be at least 3oC above the dew point, in order to avoid the risk of vapor condensation.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Unsealed containers must be used as soon as they are opened and cannot be restored.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is intended for professional use only.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"aio-icon-component    style_1\"><div id=\"Info-box-wrap-4270\" class=\"aio-icon-box default-icon\" style=\"\"  ><div class=\"aio-icon-default\"><div class=\"ult-just-icon-wrapper  \"><div class=\"align-icon\" style=\"text-align:center;\">\n<div class=\"aio-icon-img \" style=\"font-size:65px;display:inline-block;\" >\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-icon\" alt=\"null\" src=\"https:\/\/aedcolor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-2.png\"\/>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"aio-icon-header\" ><h3 class=\"aio-icon-title ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='#Info-box-wrap-4270 .aio-icon-title'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"\",\"line-height\":\"\"}'  style=\"\">Surface: Concrete, wood, metal<\/h3><\/div> <!-- header --><\/div> <!-- aio-icon-box --><\/div> <!-- aio-icon-component -->[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"aio-icon-component    style_1\"><div id=\"Info-box-wrap-3660\" class=\"aio-icon-box default-icon\" style=\"\"  ><div class=\"aio-icon-default\"><div class=\"ult-just-icon-wrapper  \"><div class=\"align-icon\" style=\"text-align:center;\">\n<div class=\"aio-icon-img \" style=\"font-size:65px;display:inline-block;\" >\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-icon\" alt=\"null\" src=\"https:\/\/aedcolor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-1-1.png\"\/>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"aio-icon-header\" ><h3 class=\"aio-icon-title ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='#Info-box-wrap-3660 .aio-icon-title'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"\",\"line-height\":\"\"}'  style=\"\">Application: Brush or roller <\/h3><\/div> <!-- header --><\/div> <!-- aio-icon-box --><\/div> <!-- aio-icon-component -->[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO &#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|font_size:50|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8158&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]ISOFLEX-PU 500 THIXO is a one-component, thixotropic, polyurethane, liquid waterproofing membrane for vertical, curved and sloping surfaces.
