Description

Polycolor Aqualock (Interior Waterproofing) is a waterproof, permeable and breathable paint designed for damp walls, ideal for interior and ceiling type walls. A great solution to dampness and efflorescence challenges. It also blocks external water penetration and is resistant to mold and fungal growth.

Surface Preparation

1. Assess the Wall Condition

  • Identify the source of moisture (e.g. rising damp, leaks) and fix it first.
  • Aqualock can manage moisture, but cannot stop active water ingress like leaking pipes or
    unsealed cracks.

 

2. Clean the Surface

  • Remove all loose paint, dust, dirt, grease, or biological growth (algae, mold, mildew).
  • Use a biocide wash or fungicidal treatment if mold or mildew is present.
  • If efflorescence (white salt deposits) is visible, brush it off with a stiff brush or sponge using
    warm water and allow to dry.

 

3. Repair Damages

  • Fill any cracks, holes, or degraded areas with a compatible repair mortar or filler.
  • For large or structural cracks, use a flexible filler or cementitious repair compound.

 

4. Assess Porosity & Surface Type

  • Highly absorbent or powdery surfaces (e.g. old plaster, sandstone) should be stabilized using a
    primer.
  • On very smooth surfaces, lightly sand or etch to promote adhesion.

 

5. Damp Tolerance

  • Surface can be slightly damp—no need to wait for it to dry completely.
  • But no standing water or active seepage should be present.

 

6. Primer

  • Apply 1 coat of Polycolor Elastomeric Wall Primer

 

7. Mask & Protect

  • Mask nearby surfaces (windows, trim, floors).
  • Protect from rain or direct water contact during and just after application.
