7.1 Best Practices & Disclaimers

As a post e-trained applicator, educated in the Hulk Systems, we would expect you never to compromise the quality of a client’s waterproofing by performing application under any of the following conditions:

DO NOT apply in freezing conditions if layer of frost is present on application surface and appropriate cold weather equipment modifications are not in place. 

DO NOT apply if rain, or heavy moisture is imminent. You want a minimum of 4 hours dry time before introduction of water. 

DO NOT thin liquid materials unless instructed in technical documents, this application guide or other product specification documents. 

ENSURE any debris, dust, oil, or any other irregularity that could affect adhesion has been removed. 

ENSURE any forms or curing agents have been removed and that concrete has cured. Minimum concrete curing period for liquid is 48-72 hours. For applications requiring HULK dimples membranes, a minimum cure of 10-14 days is required. 

ENSURE there is a minimum of 24 hours between removal of forms and application of waterproofing system. 

ENSURE all seams, holes and cracks are treated in accordance with the systems below.

ENSURE any curing agents used by the concrete contractor are compatible with HULK Systems products. 

RECOMMENDED by the manufacturer to always do an adhesion test before proceeding with application. 

ALWAYS apply the products to the correct thickness outlined in this application guide, technical and other product specification documents. 

ALWAYS mix HULK: WP prior to use.
