Xypex® Products
Megamix Series
Description
Xypex Megamix I is a thin parge coat for the waterproofing and resurfacing
of vertical masonry or concrete surfaces, as a cap coat for Xypex Concentrate, or as
an architectural rendering. Megamix I is a unique blend of Portland cement, treated
silica sand, fibers and proprietary chemicals. It is mixed with Xycrylic Admix to
produce enhanced bond. Megamix I is applied by brush or trowel up to a thickness of
3/8 in. (10 mm). The high performance characteristic of Megamix I are enhanced by
Xypex’s unique crystalline waterproofing and protection technology.
Note: For patching or resurfacing deteriorated concrete, requiring a thicker
parge coat, (between 3/8 in. and 2 in. or 10 mm to 50 mm), see the information below
for Xypex Megamix II.
Recommended for:
- Waterproof coating for vertical concrete block surfaces and cast-in-place concrete walls
- A secondary or cap coat for Xypex Concentrate applications to porous masonry surfaces
- Lining for swimming pools, tunnels and tanks
Advantages
- Excellent adhesion and bond to concrete substrates
- Easy to apply
