Dr. Fixit Raincoat is composed of high quality acrylic emulsion polymer, light fast, weather durable pigments, properly selected, graded fine fillers, additives and biocides. It is used as a waterproofing and protective coating for exterior walls of the buildings because it forms higher film thickness, has excellent flexibility, breathing properties, water resistance, crack-bridging ability, weathering durability and an excellent resistance to the growth of microorganisms.

Areas of Application:

• All types of exterior masonry surfaces, concrete, cement sand renderings, etc.
• Applicable on asbestos sheets.

Features and Benefits:

• Waterproofing - Higher film thickness provides crack bridging ability, waterproofing properties and resistance to cracking.
• Flexibility - Flexible and covers hairline cracks(up to 0.5 mm) effectively, thus prevents ingress of water.
• Toughness - Tough film withstands wind driven rain.
• Elastomeric - High elasticity easily withstands stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction
• Ready to use - No dilution is required
• Microbial resistance - Resistance to fungus and algae hence maintains the aesthetic value.
• UV resistant - Resistance to UV hence coating has longer life.
• Low dirt pick up - Very low dirt pick up and can be cleaned easily hence maintains the aesthetics.
• Breathability - Permeable to water vapour.
• Ease of application - User friendly, easily applicable by brush, roller or spray.
• Non toxic - It is Eco friendly
