Application Guide

  • Ensure that you have the appropriate tools and a sufficient amount of ARDEX 8+9™ Rapid Waterproofing and Crack Isolation Compound

Coverage (2 coats)

  • Drywall – 100 sq.ft
  • Concrete – 70 sq.ft
  • ARDEX 8+9 requires a solid substrate that is clean, dry, and free of oils, grease, wax, latex compounds, curing compounds, dust, and all foreign matter. Do not install below 50°F (10°C) surface temperature
  • MIX 1 – Caulking Consistency - Mix a small amount of ARDEX 8+9™ to a lump-free caulk-like consistency for filling holes, gaps, and joints. Always pour liquid into the mixing container first and then the powder. Working time is approximately 45 minutes at 70°F/21°C.
  • Crack Isolation - Use MIX 1 to fill around floor or wall penetrations, corner and floor/wall joints, and dormant cracks up 1/8” before installing ARDEX SK MESH™. The unused portion of the trowel grade MIX 1 the mixture can be blended back with the balance of the remaining powder and liquid for use in the next step, MIX 2
  • MIX 2 – Paint-able Consistency - Mix ARDEX 9 (powder) with one unit of ARDEX 8 (liquid). Mix with an ARDEX T-2 Ring Paddle and a low-speed drill for best results. Always pour liquid into the mixing container first and then the powder. Mix thoroughly to obtain a lump-free, pour-able mixture. Coat the entire area evenly with a paint roller or brush and allow thorough drying (30 to 45 minutes). A second layer is required to obtain a waterproof membrane and must be applied at a 90° angle to the first coat
  • Tiles can be fixed onto the second coat of ARDEX 8+9™ after one hour at 70°F/21°C. Use ARDEX MICROTEC™ Thin Set Mortars ARDEX X 77™ and ARDEX X 32™( for stone), ARDEX X 5™ or ARDEX X 4™ directly onto ARDEX 8+9™, all of which are suitable for porcelain, non-porous, and glass mosaic tiles. ARDEX X 4 is suitable for tiles for internal applications only

Ardex Water Proofing

Finding Ardex locally has been beyond challenging especially after my local store switched to another brand of setting material. The Ardex 8+9 is a great waterproofing system. It mixes up well, goes on smooth andis a solid waterproof surface that is ready for tile. Thanks Contractors Direct always offering the best products
