Your average printer paper is 3.5 to 4mil thick, and the average coat of Dura-Rubber applied is about 3-5 mil with a maximum of 10mil per coat.
*Coverage Per Gallon Dura-Rubber:
o 5mil = 260sf
o 10mil =130sf
o 20mil = 65sf
o 30mil = 43sf
o 40mil = 32sf
*No matter how thick of a coat you apply a minimum of two coats is always required.
Primer coverage is 300sf per gallon.
Minimum coverages for Dura-Rubber.
Swimming pools and ponds:
o Waterproofing 20mil
o Color Coat 10mil
Concrete floor or patio:
o Waterproofing 20mil
o Color Coat 15mil
Roofs:
o Flat 20-30mil
o Metal 10mil
o Color Coat 5-10mil on metal.
Plywood Aquariums:
20mil
Most basic applications that do not require heavy durability and water saturation can be applied at about 10mil. Keep in mind the thicker the coat, the more durable it will be.
Suggested Dry Times
o 45°F-60°F/50% Relative Humidity – Outdoors – 12 hours per coat
o 65°F-75°F – Indoors – 2-3 hours per coat-1-2
o 60°F+/50% Relative Humidity - Outdoors – 1-2 hours per coat
o 60°F+/50% Relative Humidity - In shade – 2-3 hours per coat
Once dry, the Dura-Rubber can be exposed to light to moderate traffic and water. (Not Submerged in water)
Cure time (This is different from dry time) is 5-7 days. This is required when submerged in water like a pool or pond and exposed to heavy chemicals.
Reinforcement fabric:
Reinforcement Fabric is required when waterproofing on all 90-degree corners, seams, penetrations, and transitions of dissimilar materials. There is we carry a 6” wide material for this application. More Here
It can also be used for improving durability, buildup of material and for excessive cracks or seams.
With fabric you can get a 30mil+ coat with a two-step application. More Here
