NXT AquaGuard
Exterior Grade Waterproofing Membrane
NXT AquaGuard is an exterior grade, 100% waterproofing membrane design for application on the external surface to protect against water ingress and weathering. Based on a hybrid technology, NXT AquaGuard can be used on vertical and horizontal surfaces as a high strength weatherproof protective membrane with high build elastomeric functionality for general roofing substrates. NXT AquaGuard provides an excellent flexible protective coating to roofs with good anti-carbonation properties, breathability, and resistance to varying climatic conditions.
NuTech’s proprietary resin technology provides a hard yet flexible surface with nano-technology for added water breading and contamination resistance for the life of the coating. Unlike conventional elastomeric roof coatings, NuTech’s NXT AquaGuard will stay cleaner for longer and remain 100% waterproof under seasonal ponding water conditions.
Application and Features
NXT AquaGuard requires two coats to ensure that the surface is 100% waterproof. Before application, the surface must be cleaned and dried, and joints should be re-enforced using Poly Fabric. The entire surface should then be primed with a suitable primer.
Two coats of NXT AquaGard should be applied using a brush, roller, or airless spray unit with a 20-30 thou tip. Allow 4 hours drying time between coats, and up to 72 hours for a weatherproof finish.
NXT AquaGuard is not designed for use as an exposed membrane under vehicular or heavy foot traffic. For roof applications, NXT AquaGuard is to be applied to surfaces with appropriate falls and drainage. NXT AquaGuard is not designed to be immersed or applied to subterranean areas. Product in a wet state will clean up with water. Once the product has dried it will need mechanical means or solvents to remove.
