NEW FUTURA-5 is an Acrylic based highly elastomeric waterproof coating. After drying it forms a film of exceptional strength and flexibility that prevents peeling, fungi / algae growth, future cracks and water seepage. New Futura-5 bridges bigger cracks effectively and it is ultra voilet resistant.

Features / Advantages

  • Possess elongation properties to bridge existing cracks (upt 0.5mm) and prevents future cracks with abosolute finality.
  • Remarkable elasticity and resilience for substrate’s thermal expansion and contraction.
  • Optimised rheology for high film build
  • Breathability for preventing moisture in walls and roofs (MICROPOROUS).
  • Can be applied on damp surfaces.
  • Excellent alkali resistance
  • Resistance to chalking & flaking
  • UV resistant for outstanding durability
  • Available in 120+ attractive shades.


Direction for use


Adequate surface preparation as given below is a must for product performance.

Surface preparation

Futura Sealer Coat is a must on masonry surface to ensure maximum penetration & adhesion to substrate.

New Masonary

New Futura-5 should not be applied to concrete & other surfaces less than 7 days old. Ideally concrete should be allowed to cure for 28 days before application. Power wash to ensure no underbound cement remains on the surface. Allow surface to dry. Apply Futura Sealer Coat at a spread rate of 100-150 sq.ft. per ltre. per coat depending on the porosity of the concrete. Allow 2-4 hrs. to dry, if possible wait 24 hours before application.

Existing Masonary
Power wash to remove all loosely adhered coatings & other contaminants. Fill existing cracks with Paintex (Acrylic Latex Caulk) paintable sealant. Apply Futura Sealer Coat at a spread rate of 150-200 sq.ft. per ltr. per coat depending on the porosity of the concrete.

Application of futura-5
New Futura-5 can be applied by airless spray, roller or brush. Coating can be diluted with water. After thinning with 10-20% water, apply first coat at a spread rate of 8-8.5sq.mt.per ltr. per coat. Allow to dry for 4 hours.(preferably 24 hrs.) Apply 2nd coat at a spread rate of 8.5-9 sq.mt. per ltr. per coat after thinning with 10-20% water.

For New Constructions
Use Futura Sealer+ 50% diluted Futura-5 as primer coat & then 2 coats of New
Futura-5
.

For slopping roofs
Reinforce New Futura-5 by incorporating a polyester mat of min. thickness of 70gsm as a part of Sandwich Membrane System. Lay this mat on the first wet coat before application of subsequent coats. System comprises of primer +1 coat of New Futura-5 + polyester mat + 2coats of New Futura-5.

Application

New Futura-5 is applicable for
  • Exterior RCC surface
  • Masonry walls or facades
  • Stone walls
  • Asbestos
  • China mosaic tiles
  • Sloping roofs.

Precautions

1. Use of Futura Sealer Coat is a must
2. Do not dilute Futura Sealer
3. Do not overthin New Futura-5 (not exceeding 20% water)
4. For better performance, fill the existing cracks with Sealant
5. The substrate should be free from chalking, dust, grease, loose paint, fungus &     algae.


Warranty
