TRI-COUNTY TROWEL-ON

DESCRIPTION
ALCO Tri-County Trowel-On is a heavy bodied, non-asbestos fiber filled, solvent based dampproofing that can be troweled to exterior surfaces of concrete or masonry walls below grade.

USE
Ideal when maximum dampproofing is needed for reducing dampness and moisture infiltration through foundation walls, footings, retaining walls, tanks, culverts, and bridge abutments.

ADVANTAGES
· Easy application – Use Standard Trowel
· Ready to use
· Fast and economical way to protect concrete and masonry foundations from moisture penetration

PREPARATION
The surface being coated must be clean, dry and free from oil, form release agents and any foreign matter such as dust, dirt, etc. Be sure all voids, cracks and rod holes are repaired with ALCO 24/7 Flashing Cement and a fabric membrane, when needed. This material will span small hairline cracks, but all voids and crevices must be repaired before application. Large voids and crevices in concrete should be filled with mortar cement and allowed to cure completely.

APPLICATION
With a standard trowel, apply at the rate of 1/8” film or 12.25 SF/Gallon. If two coats are needed and a fabric membrane is used, imbed fabric membrane into mastic, overlapping edges 3 – 4 inches and press firmly in place. Let first coat cure before applying second coat.

COLD WEATHER APPLICATION:  For best coverage results, material should be stored in a warm warehouse and applied at the temperature of 40° F. or above.
