Roof Shield

Dubond's Roof Shield is a heavy duty terrace waterproofing system, composed of specially developed highly elastic & resilient acrylic polymers, properly selected & graded fillers, lightfast & weather durable pigments, micro-fibres, additives & best quality fungicidal in water medium. it is used as a liquid applied waterproofing membrane for all types of building terraces. Dubond's Roof Shield is a three-layer system with coats in different colours ensuring proper build-up of the thickness, making it a reliable waterproofing system.

  • Water proofing – tough & elastic films provides excellent W/p
  • Film thickness – provides higher dry film thickness of 1 to 1.25 mm in three coat application.
  • Crack bridging – Bridges cracks upto 2 mm width.
  • Application advantage – No need to remove existing BB coba, plaster, concrete surface.
  • Strength - Higher tensile strength, tear resistance & bond strength with cementitious substrates.
  • Resilience – forms highly elastic & resilient coating so helps to withstand the structural movements.
  • Durability – Resistant to uv & weather conditions.
  • Abrasion resistant – No additional protective coating is required for roof subjected to foot traffic.
  • Ease of application – can by applied by brush & roller easily.
  • Light weight – does not add extra weight over the roof.
  • Non-toxic – eco friendly
  • Breathability – it is Breathable.
  • Building roofs / terraces – flat & slope.
  • Over existing cementitious waterproofing treatments like brick-bat coba, concrete screeds, acrylic coatings, etc.
  • Apply one coat of Dubond's Hydro Prime without any dilution at the rate of 10-12 m per litre. allow it to dry for 2-3 hours.
  • 2 Apply the first coat of Dubond's Roof shield at the rate of 2 m per litre and allow it to dry before taking up the second and third coats,the rate of application being the same.
  • The sequence of colours viz-a-viz, green or terracota grey can be decided depending on the desired top coat colour.
  • In case only two colours are being used, ensure that the colour of the first and the third coat are the same. this would
  • ensure correct consumption of material that will deliver a total Dft of 1 mm.
  • Drying time between coats will be 6 to 8 hours.
  • Ensure that the primer and the 3 coats of Dubond's Roof Shield totally achieve a minimum thickness of 1 mm Dft.
  • allow the system to air cure for 7 days minimum.
