PLUGGING INSTRUCTIONS

Concrete Waterproofing Xypex Patch'n Plug 15

1. Concrete waterproofing. Preparation

Rout out crack or hole by chiseling or chipping to a minimum depth of one inch (25 mm). Form a square or dovetail shaped space (do not use a “V” cut). Flush away all loose materials and dirt from the cavity with water and a stiff brush.

2. Concrete waterproofing. Mixing

Add 1 part water to 3.5 parts Patch’n Plug by volume and mix to the consistency of a stiff putty. Do not mix more than can be used in 3 minutes. For best results, water temperature should be approximately 60ºF - 70ºF (15ºC - 20ºC).

3. Concrete waterproofing. Tamponade

3. Plugging form plug with gloved hand. Place plug into cavity pressing firmly until plug is hard. When sealing cracks, begin at the highest point and work down. Where there is a high water pressure flow, form mastic with rubber gloves and wait until it is almost hard before bring it into the water flow, then press down firmly until mastic it has hardened completely (3 min.).

Concrete waterproofing. Sealing against high water flow

NOTE: Where there is a high volume of water flow due to extreme hydrostatic pressure, follow these steps: With a concrete chisel and hammer (or chipping gun), cut open a cavity at the point of greatest water flow.

a) Place a stiff section of hose or pipe into the cavity and secure in place with Patch’n Plug to force water through the hose. This relieves the pressure so that the area can be patched. Allow a minimum of 24 hours for hardening.

b) Remove bleeder hose and plug remaining hole. If necessary, reduce water flow by inserting steel wool or wooden plug in the remaining hole before patching.
