Intelligent Membranes Waterproof Blue is designed for contractors and DIY professionals looking for a high-performance, seamless liquid membrane to replace traditional plastic DPCs and DPMs. It offers a robust, airtight, and watertight barrier for floors, walls, and wet rooms, effectively preventing moisture and radon gas ingress. While it provides superior crack-bridging and ease of application, users should note that the drying time can vary based on ambient humidity and temperature, requiring careful planning for multi-coat applications.

Yes, it is highly suitable for wet rooms and bathrooms as it creates a waterproof barrier behind tiling.

Yes, it provides an effective barrier against radon gas transmission, making it suitable for buildings in areas with known radon risks.
The product is designed to be blue, which helps in identifying any areas that have been missed during the application process.
While the surface can be slightly damp, it should not be soaking wet or showing signs of standing water. Ensure the surface is generally dry for the best bond.
It is primarily designed to be a DPM layer, usually followed by tiling or screeding. Consult specific adhesive manufacturer guidelines if bonding directly to the membrane.
High humidity or low temperatures significantly slow down the curing process. Use a dehumidifier or improve ventilation in the room.
Ensure the surface was completely cleaned of dust and oils before application. If the surface is dusty, apply a suitable stabilizing primer first.
Apply an additional coat, ensuring that you overlap strokes properly to maintain a uniform thickness across the entire area.
Before application, ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of loose debris, dust, or oily residues. Use a stiff brush to remove any contaminants. If the surface is highly porous, a primer may be required to ensure maximum adhesion. Apply the product using a standard medium-pile roller or a high-quality brush. For most applications, two coats are recommended to ensure full coverage and the required dry film thickness. Once applied, clean all tools immediately with warm water before the product cures. Store the container in a cool, dry place and ensure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent the liquid from drying out in the bucket.
