TECH-DRY EARTHAID is designed as a water-repellent admixture for Tech-Dry earth render systems or other polymer render systems. EARTHAID contains reactive silane/siloxanes, which can react with earth render ingredients to impart durable water resistance to the entire body of the earth render against weathering.   The resultant earth renders exhibits good surface beading and low water absorption.   EARTHAID also provides early water repellency to prevent wash-down due to rain or dew contacting the render before cure.   Water penetration through earth renders will be significantly reduced. EARTHAID is added at a concentration of up to 4% by weight to the earth render. The resultant earth render exhibits excellent surface beading (as shown in Figure 1) resulting in very low water absorption of the earth render. The water resistance is developed very quickly, preventing wash-down due to rain or dew contacting the render surface before cure. The water absorption through the render can be reduced by up to 95%. As earth render varies, it is always recommended that a test must be carried out prior to application to find the suitability of this product for the purpose. Sizes 5L and 20L Containers  Application:   Admixture Dosage:   To be used in conjunction with TECH-DRY EARTH BONDING EMULSION in the Tech-Dry Earth Render System. Water Based Please note: If selecting Local Pickup. Our yard is located at 244 Payneham Road, PAYNEHAM, SA 5070.

TECH-DRY MUD BRICK WATER REPELLENT is a solvent-based sealer designed to penetrate into the first few millimetres of the capillaries of mud brick/earth structures and render the substrate water-repellent. This water-repellent zone reduces the absorption of water by up to 90%.  It also reduces efflorescence or other water-borne staining materials, which are responsible for the bulk of the deterioration in earth-building materials. MUD BRICK WATER REPELLENT is a non-film-forming sealer, which provides long-lasting protection against weathering without peeling or blistering. The treatment will not significantly change the appearance of the substrates and the vapour permeability. However, a slight darkening of the surface may occur for some substrates. MUD BRICK WATER REPELLENT Is also suitable as a water-repellent sealer for other substrates, including stabilised earth/rammed earth, natural stones, concrete masonry, bricks, and tiles & grout. Features Penetrates into substrate surface. Permanently bonds to the substrate with no peel or blister. UV, alkali stable and durable formulation. Reduces water penetration, efflorescence and water-borne staining. Does not significantly change the surface appearance and vapour permeability. Easy application and cost-effective. Sizes 5L and 20L Containers Application: Brush | Roller | Spray  Coverage:    1 – 10m2 per litre per coat depending on the permeability of the surface. Solvent Based Please note: If selecting Local Pickup.
