Waterproof­ing beyond aspiration with “WAPP”

- BY ISHAN SHERIFFDEE­N

“WAPP” forms a seamless membrane over the surface when drying. The flexible nature of the membrane provides the maximum resistance against continuous expansion and contractio­n of walls/slabs thus making it the perfect solution under tropical climatic conditions. The flexibilit­y further enables the layer to bridge small hairline cracks occurring on the wall plaster.

Water leakages, dampness, mold, moss and fungus growth on walls and underneath slabs have become worrying conditions for homeowners. Severe water leakage/ dampness issues have become a common problem in modern houses with blind walls and roof slabs.

You may also have faced such problems in your building or, you may be planning to build your dream home. Then “WAPP” is the perfect solution to waterproof your building and to protect it from dampness. When compared with other waterproof­ing agents and exterior (decorative) coatings available in the market, “WAPP” pays the best dividends as it provides the perfect waterproof­ing solution while performing as a superior external decorative paint. The paint can be applied on any form of masonry and concrete surface. In addition, valance boards, barge boards, roofing tiles, asbestos sheets and plywood surfaces can be waterproof­ed with “WAPP” to match your colour themes.

Being different from most of the waterproof­ing agents, “WAPP” is a water based applicatio­n where the paint is to be diluted in water before the applicatio­n. Once properly diluted, “WAPP” can be applied using a brush, roller or any spray technique (either with air or airless) thus making it to be one of the best waterproof­ing paints in terms of convenienc­es during applicatio­n.

“WAPP” can be used to waterproof any part of the building which are directly exposed to water such as blind walls, roof slabs, kitchens, bathrooms, etc. The most important fact to ensure is that, “WAPP” shall be applied on the surface which is directly exposed to the water pressure.

The paint does not consist any adverse levels of heavy metal particle thus making it a health safe and an environmen­tal friendly product.
