Nitocote Wallguard

Nitocote Wallguard is water based polymer coating composed of high quality acrylic polymer, with weather resistant pigments, properly selected & graded fine fillers.
It is used as a waterproofing & decorative coating for protection of exterior walls of the buildings from heavy wind driven rain.

Uses

Nitocote Wallguard provides acrylic elastomeric coating with inherent crack-bridging ability. Typical applications include :

  • Provides a high quality effective waterproofing cum decorative coating for exterior wall.
  • Prevents dampness of external wall subjected to severe weather in coastal environment
  • Ideally suitable or coating on all type of external masonry surfaces, concrete, cement sand renderings etc

Advantages

  • Ready to use - Dilution is not required
  • UV stability - Resistance to UV rays
  • Breathability - Allow internal moisture to escape.
  • Anti dirt - low dirt pick up & can be cleaned easily.
  • Microbial Resistance - Resistance to Algae, Fungi and bacterial attack
  • Ease of application - User friendly product, easily applicable by brush, roller or spray.
  • High build film - Higher film thickness provides tough waterproof membrane ensuring no ingress of water withstanding wind driven rain.
  • Highly flexible - Accommodates movement in the structure covers hairline cracks (upto 0.5 mm)
  • Elongation - Easily accomodates movement of thermal expansion & contraction. 100% elongation at 110-120 micron Dft crack bridging in excess of 0.5 mm
