Limitations of Use

• SikaTile®-111 Rapid Proof is not designed for exposed UV stable
  application and should be not left exposed for longer than 30 days.
• To minimise the chance of damage, apply tile or stone coverings as soon
  as possible to prevent the membrane from being damaged.
• SikaTile®-111 Rapid Proof is designed for under tile and stone
  applications.
• Do not apply if rain or bad weather is imminent.
• Ensure SikaTile®-111 Rapid Proof is applied at the recommended coverage
  rates.
• Do not allow SikaTile®-111 Rapid Proof to freeze.
• Timber and particleboard flooring shall be overlaid with a suitable
  fibre cement sheeting or reinforced screed.
• SikaTile®-111 Rapid Proof is not designed for submerged applications
  such as pools and spas.
• Refer to specific priming instructions for all applications.

 

Priming

• Porous substrates
  SikaTile® 010 Secure Prime
• Non Porous substrates ie PVC puddle flanges and metal grates
  SikaTile® 015 Prep n Prime
• Epoxy Primer / Vapour Barrier
  Sikalastic® Moisture Seal or SikaFloor® 158 Fast Barrier

Refer to the specific primer product data sheet for complete instructions.

 

Mixing

• Stir the membrane with a paddle prior to use.

 

Application

• SikaTile®-111 Rapid Proof shall be applied in a minimum 2 coat
  application allowing to dry between coats.
• Apply the SikaTile®-111 Rapid Proof at a wet film thickness of 0.75
  Litre per M2 per coat to reach a dry film thickness on minimum 1.0mm.
• Periodical checking of application thickness is recommended to ensure
  dry film thickness are achieved.
• Allow membrane to dry for 2.5 – 3 hours after final coat before tiling.
• Protect the membrane from water ingress and damage prior to tiling.

 

Flood Testing

• Should flood testing be required refer to the below instructions.
• Allow membrane to dry for a minimum 24 hours at 23°C & 50% relative
  humidity. Additional drying time will be needed in climates below these specified
  temperatures.
• Fill the area with cool or cold water only minimum depth 25mm, maximum
  depth 65mm
• Flood test time shall be a maximum of 1 hour.
• Release water after 1 hour and inspect for defects and repair if
  required.
• Allow to dry prior to tiling.

Should a longer flood testing be required please contact Sika for instructions.
