Brushbond Ti Flexicoat Nitoproof 600 PF system

Nitoproof 600PF is a single component pitch free liquid polyurethane. It cures by reaction with atmospheric
moisture to form a tough, elastomeric, waterproof membrane. Nitoproof 600PF is designed for use on
horizontal and vertical surfaces, covered by a protective screed or render.

Elastomeric acrylic polymer-based solar reflective and insulating coating. Nitoproof 600PF can be applied by brush, squeegee or roller. It is applied at a minimum wet film thickness of
1.5mm in 2 coats.
Brushbond Ti Flexicoat is a water-based white
coloured emulsion comprising of acrylic polymers
and specially designed hollow “microspheres”,
less than 100 microns in diameter with non-
conductive properties. These microspheres
collectively acts as thermal insulation blanket
covering the structure effectively reflecting
solar radiation back into the atmosphere. This
results in impressive temperature reduction
behind the substrate by a min. of 10 oC.
This system also has certain waterproofing
properties and is able to bridge hairline cracks
caused by thermal movements.

Application Areas include: Concrete roofs, metal

and retaining heat in colder climates, minimising air conditioning or heating costs. In hot climates green roofing
also helps in cooling surrounding areas, but in any area the installation of a green roof may also reduce the Waterproofing
