Graphenstone StopWater Premium
Graphenstone StopWater Premium is a temporary anti-humidity treatment which allows for the application of paint on surfaces with humidity.
Best Uses
Graphenstone StopWater Premium is ideal as a temporary moisture retaining paint for basements walls, ceilings and any internal walls that suffer from humidity. It works by penetrating the substrate while not forming an impermeable layer or altering the substrate's breathability. StopWater also acts as a consolidator of mineral substrates. The product degrades as a result of the high pH of Graphenstone coatings.
Features
- Retains moisture
- Temporary barrier. Progressive degradation
- Consolidates mineral substrates
- Allows mineral paint application
- Allows correct drying for lime-based paints
- Increases solution durability
- Suitable for use on both interiors and exteriors
Preparation
Firstly, we highly recommend locating and repairing the primary source of the damp to help ensure a lasting solution. Next you will need to prepare the surface. The substrate must be dry, firm, well adhered, even, and free of any impurities that could hinder the perfect bonding of the product. Ensure that any organic growth and/or other impurities are removed by thorough cleaning, using specific products for this purpose, such as Centrecoat GS36 Fungicidal Wash.
If the substrate is not well adhered, remove the non-adherent areas by scraping and brushing. If the substrate has any salt deposits, brush and apply Graphenstone Neutralysal Premium.
Application
Shake and dilute 1:1 with water to ensure a good mix, and apply in one even coat.
