Precautions to be Observed During Application

In hot weather, or windy and very sunny days, it is recommended to spray the surface with water to prevent rapid evaporation of mixing water. Before allowing drinking water to come into contact with Planiseal 88, make sure it has completely set by keeping to the recommended waiting times. Then thoroughly clean all the surfaces and remove all the water used for cleaning before filling.

Cleaning

Planiseal 88 Waterproofing Mortar can be removed from tools with water before it hardens. Once hardened, cleaning becomes difficult and can be carried out only by mechanical means.
