Typical Installations

  1. Clean the concrete surface using a stiff brush or with high pressure air to remove any loose dirt and debris. Remove any exposed high or sharp points on the concrete surface, which may prevent the J-Seal® CJ-212 membrane from adhering fully to the surface or from being punctured. Any major holes or voids in the concrete surface should be filled with an application of a cement mortar in order to level the surface to the same level as the current concrete surface where the membrane is to be applied.
  2. Apply one layer of CJ-200-15 Adhesive Primer onto a clean, dry, concrete surface, using a roller, brush or sprayer. Allow the CJ-200-15 Adhesive Primer to become tacky (approximate drying time is 10-20 minutes @ 30°C and depending upon the current ambient temperature) before installing the J-Seal® CJ-212 membrane. The dosage rate should be at approximately 5-7 m² per litre depending upon the concrete surface condition and porosity. A thorough, even and uniform coverage of the Primer/Adhesive should be applied.
  3. To apply J-Seal® CJ-212 membrane to the joint, remove the release paper from the adhesive side of the membrane and apply the membrane onto the primed surface with the butyl section being applied directly on to the concrete primed surface. Continue around the joint by removing the release paper as the J-Seal® CJ-212 membrane is unrolled.
  4. Press the entire surface of J-Seal® CJ-212 membrane firmly into place using a medium or hard surface roller or by hand, to ensure full bonding of the membrane is achieved and to make sure that all air pockets are removed. Around edges, corners and difficult locations that cannot be applied with a roller, use a firm hand or finger pressure to apply the membrane.
  5. Where joining two sections, or where two ends meet together, provide an overlap of approximately 50mm and firmly press the overlapping strip onto the end of the underlying membrane to seal the joint.
