LEAKSEAL for mass concrete

and other general types of concrete works

The proportions recommended for such types of work are four parts of cores aggregate two
parts of the aggregate and part of waterproofed cement. Care should be taken to select clean
and added aggregates.
LEAKSEAL (Waterproofing compound for cement)
Directions:
LEAKSEAL waterproofing compound is most modern waterproofing compound, use in the
construction of all concrete structure which need to be waterproofed. Two percent of the
compound by weight should be mixed with cement to obtain water repellent properties. This
carton contains 1 kilo of LEAKSEAL which is sufficient for one bag of cement weighting 1
cwt or 50,8 kilos. LEAKSEAL should first be added to the Portland cement, mixed thoroughly
and passed through a fine sieve to ensure even distribution of LEAKSEAL throughout the
cement.
LEAKSEAL for tiling work
It is advisable to have bedding one part of cement waterproofed with LEAKSEAL to three parts
of clean sand, about thick to avoid moisture coming through the joints of the tiles.
LEAKSEAL rendering for underground cellars, tanks, reservoirs, sewers, etc.
LEAKSEAL should first be added to be Portland cement, mixed thoroughly and passed through
a fine sieve. One part of this mixture is than added to two and half parts of clean, sharp and
LEAKSEAL renderings to prevent dampness:
For such work three costs are recommended, each coat being 3/8 thick one part of cement
waterproofing which LEAKSEAL should be mixed two to two and half parts of clean sharp and
well graded sand.
LEAKSEAL for base coats and coloured renderings:
Leak seal is of particular value in producing water repellent coating, on which to apply
coloured renderings. The coating is made up of 3 parts of clean sharp sand and to one part
cement (Leak seal added). Such backings which are non absorbent are essential to avoid
considerable variation in the colour and texture of the finishing coat.
