DAVIES ® MORTAFLEX ®
DV - MTF

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION ® ®
DAVIES MORTAFLEX is a modified acrylic water-based polymer developed to improve the performance
of cement mortar or concrete. The resulting cement compound exhibits excellent adhesion, water
resistance and mechanical strength not found in ordinary cement-water mixture.

DAVIES ® MORTAFLEX ® transforms cement into a tough but flexible coating perfect for waterproofing. It
is highly resistant to water penetration on landscape flat decks and wind driven rain on exterior walls.

RECOMMENDED USE Firewalls, Decks, Basements, Planters, Bathrooms and Underlayer as water barriers

MAIN FEATURES • Water Based low odor, non-toxic and environmental friendly
• Water Resistant resists water seepage; suitable for positive water pressure on exterior
and interior vertical walls
• Flexible greatly reduces concrete chipping with excellent crack bridging properties
even for thin mortar finishes
• Fire Retardant delays the spread of fire when used as cementitious coating on wood
and light building materials
• Excellent Adhesion provides superior bond strength to concrete, metal, wood, bricks and
insulation foams

Surface Preparation
• Surface should be clean, dry, free from oil, grease, dust, dirt, loose materials and other contaminants.
• Remove dirt, dust, loose or excess grit or mortar with stiff brush and clean surface by high pressure water hosing.
• The loosening or fallen of concrete have to be removed and the large holes, cracks should be repaired first.

Mixing
• Sieve separately the sand and cement to eliminate lumps and mix thoroughly.
• While mixing DAVIES® MORTAFLEX®, add the cement/sand mixture and continue mixing for 3-5 minutes
until the desired consistency is obtained (refer to Product Preparation Table on DAVIES® MORTAFLEX®
cement/sand mixing ratio). DO NOT add water.

Mix Application
• Wet masonry surfaces with water thoroughly.
• Refer to Product Preparation Table on DAVIES® MORTAFLEX® Cement/Sand Mixture for the correct
application method.
• For maximum durability, paint application is recommended. Cure the applied DAVIES® MORTAFLEX®
for 3 days before the desired painting system.

DAVIES ® MORTAFLEX ® Cementitious Waterproofing Membrane is highly recommended for the exterior face
(positive side) to prevent moisture infiltration to the substrate from the exterior environment. It is not recommended
for the interior face of the structure (negative side). DAVIES ® MORTAFLEX ® Cementitious Waterproofing
Membrane has crack bridging property which can conceal hairline cracks not more than 2mm thick and progressive
structural cracks. All structural cracks must be repaired prior to waterproofing application. Use the required sealants
and structural bonding agents.
