Nitoproof 600 Standard is a single component, liquid applied elastomeric waterproofing membrane. It can be used for waterproofing foundations, basements, tunnels, floors, decks, roofs, and other structures. It has excellent elasticity, adhesion, and impermeability to water. It provides a flexible, resilient barrier over a wide temperature range and resists chemicals, weathering, and damage. The membrane is applied by roller, squeegee, or spray in two coats at a minimum thickness of 1.3mm to form a waterproof and vaporproof barrier.
