Vetoseal XX772 is a solvent-based silane-siloxane penetrating hydrophobic water repellent. It penetrates the cementitious or stone substrates, reacts, and works by increasing the surface tension of water to slide away from the surface. Vetoseal XX772 allows the substrate to breathe by allowing water vapor to escape the substrate and drastically reducing water absorption and resisting the ingress of chloride ions.
1. Water Pressure Testing: Vetoseal XX772 cannot undergo high-water pressure testing. Instead, it is recommended to apply it manually or using a garden spray for testing purposes.
2. Factors Affecting Performance: The performance of Vetoseal XX772 may be influenced by the following factors:
3. Waterproofing Capability: It’s important to note that Vetoseal XX772 is not a waterproofing membrane designed to withstand hydrostatic pressure. As such, it is recommended for applications where hydrostatic pressure is not a concern.
