Overview waterproofing " water stop " brand GLIMS and IVSIL , application features

direct contact with liquids detrimental effect on any material - it is an axiom.Therefore, in the construction (repairs, restoration) high quality waterproofing of structural elements 'object' - one of the most important process steps.The market is filled with different types of products that can be used as protection against moisture.

Not so long ago, a trend clearly the aspirations of our fellow citizens to the selection of "goods" from domestic producers.The reasons are simple - many of "our" materials for waterproofing on the quality of imported virtually the same, but what is important - there are much cheaper.

In this article we consider the products for waterproofing under the brand "water stop" (VodoStop).In a short time, these waterproofing compounds were able to gain prestige like professional builders, as well as from private developers.

Brand "GLIMS»

What is it?The basis of dry mixes data is cement.Solutions (gray) can be used for surface finishing, both inside and outside the premises."GLIMS" is something of a cross between the plaster and surface waterproofing, as layer after curing acquires sufficient rigidity.

Product Features

• low elastic modulus, so to cover elements subjected to dynamic loads, should be used with caution;
• increased adhesion "GLIMS" allows qualitatively protect any basis, regardless of the material (stone, w / w, brick);
• resistance to aggressive media and low temperatures.It can be applied in the range from -55 to 70 ° C;
• high strength of the applied layer (compression) - 80 kgf / cm² (after final drying);
• technology allows work to finish not only dry but also wet basis;hydrohead: direct pressure - 7, the opposite - 2 (atm).

consider the specifics of the use of this material:

Substrate preparation

order to ensure better coupling it with a waterproofing after the "cleansing" of the surface is primed.To dry it is recommended to use a part of "Glims®Grunt" wet - "Glims®Gidroplomba" (a dry mixture is rubbed into the base).

Preparation

solution for better mixing and prevent the formation of lumps, it is desirable to use a mixer.By the way, it costs about 185 rubles.

possible and to make their own attachment to e-mail / drills of thick wire (for example, "butterfly").

Finish

composition is applied with a spatula or brush.This is done in several approaches: the first layer (no more than 1.5 mm) - after drying (overnight) second - 24 hours (if necessary) the third.Laying each subsequent layer is perpendicular to the previous one.

At the time of manufacture of works the temperature in the room or on the street should not be below +5 ° C.When finishing underground parts of structures (foundations), tanks (pools) and so the minimum number of layers of waterproofing - 3.

shelf life of the product - not more than a year.

Price

on sale "VodoStop GLIMS" comes in bags of 20 kg (790 rubles) or plastic buckets to 4 kg (from 245 rubles).

Brand "IVSIL»

What is it?Unlike the mixture of water stop "GLIMS" that are present in the composition polymer additives.Therefore, this brand belongs to the "waterproofing Obmazochnaya" category.Key Features are similar to the above-described material, therefore it is necessary to dwell on some of the differences.

Product Features

• some elasticity layer, which allows the waterproofing in those places where there is a risk of deformation of the substrate.For example, for sealing joints (seams) that can "walk" when the temperature jumps;
• excellent for processing already plastered surfaces and ties;
• basis, intended for laying "IVSIL" mixture should be stiff enough.

specific application

Before starting work, the foundation necessarily moistened.trim feature is that the next layer is placed "on-wet".In other words, previous drying is not necessary to wait, but it significantly reduces the time to waterproofing.But the further finishing is possible not earlier than in a day or two (depending on the temperature and quality of ventilation in the place of work).

Shelf life "VodoStop Ivsil» - not more than six months.

Price

• 20 kg (paper packaging) from 510 rubles;
• 5 kg (bag) - 155 rubles.
