CICO TAPECRETE P-151, Waterproofing Solution for roofs, basements, and exteriors to protect concrete.

About CICO TAPECRETE P-151, Waterproofing Solution for roofs, basements, and exteriors to protect concrete.

 91 000 74051 CICO Tapecrete P-151 An acrylic-based polymer-modified cementitious coating supplied as a liquid polymer. It is designed to be mixed with cement and sand to create a flexible, durable, and waterproof slurry for surface treatment, protection, and repair of concrete and masonry.
Primary Function: To enhance the properties of cement, overcoming its shortcomings like poor adhesion, low flexural strength, and fragility. When mixed with cement, it forms a composite coating that provides excellent waterproofing, bond strength, and chemical resistance.
Key Features & Benefits (from TDS):Flexible & Waterproof: Creates a tough, flexible, and seamless waterproofing membrane.Excellent Adhesion: Bonds strongly to most building materials (concrete, masonry).Vapour Permeable: Allows trapped moisture to escape, preventing blistering and peeling.Chemically Resistant: Unaffected by UV light, mild acids, strong alkalis, and continuous wet conditions.Durable & Safe: Non-flammable, non-toxic, and its properties improve with age.Easy Application: Can be applied by brush on horizontal and vertical surfaces.
Packaging: Available in HDPE containers of 0.5 kg, 1 kg, 5 kg, 10 kg, 20 kg, 50 kg, 100 kg, and 200 kg.
Q1: How do I mix TAPECRETE P151?A: The standard mixing ratio for a coating slurry is:For Coating: 1 kg TAPECRETE P151 : 2 kg Cement (by weight). Mix thoroughly to a smooth, homogeneous slurry.For Filler (to fill depressions): 0.50 kg TAPECRETE P151 : 1 kg Cement : 1.5 kg Silica Sand.Q2: What is the application process?A:Surface Prep: Clean the surface thoroughly (scarify, grind, or water blast). Remove all dust and loose material.Pre-wet: The concrete surface must be thoroughly pre-wetted. Before application, remove standing water so the surface is only damp.Apply: Apply the mixed slurry by brush. Two or more coats are recommended.Drying: Allow the first coat to air dry for 5-6 hours before applying the next coat.Curing: After the final coat, allow 2-6 hours of air drying, then apply moist curing by spraying water for the next 24 hours.Q3: What is the coverage area?A: For a two-coat system on concrete:You will need 0.75 kg of Cement and 0.375 kg of TAPECRETE P151 polymer per square meter.Q4: What is the shelf life and how should it be stored?A: Store in a sealed container in a dry, cool place (5C to 30C). Do not allow it to freeze. The typical shelf life is 12 months from the date of manufacture under these conditions.Q5: Can it be used without cement?A: No. The TDS explicitly states: "CICO TAPECRETE P151 should not be used without addition of cement." It is a polymer additive, not a standalone product.Q6: Is it safe for potable water tanks?A: The datasheet states it is highly durable in continuous wet conditions and is non-toxic. However, for potable water tanks, always check for specific local potable water certifications before use.Q7: What is the full cure time?A: The product reaches full cure in 14 days. It can be submerged in water after 2 days of air drying following the 24-hour moist curing period.Q8: What is the bond strength?A: It develops excellent bond strength. The typical 14-day bond strength is a minimum of 2.0 N/mm (or concrete failure, meaning the concrete itself fails before the bond does).

Advanced Waterproofing Technology

CICO TAPECRETE P-151 uses an innovative blend of acrylic polymer and Portland cement to deliver superior waterproofing for concrete surfaces. The dual-component system forms a tough, elastic coating that bridges cracks, resists UV light, and adheres strongly to masonry. Its chemical composition makes it especially effective for roofs, terraces, basements, and water-retaining structures. This product not only prevents water ingress but also extends the lifespan of concrete by protecting it from environmental stressors.


Easy Application and Versatile Use

Designed as a brushable slurry, CICO TAPECRETE P-151 is simple to mix and apply. The recommended powder-to-polymer ratio ensures optimal performance, while coverage rates make it cost-efficient. Suitable for roofs, sunken slabs, swimming pools, and more, this system adheres seamlessly to various substrates. The initial set occurs within 3-4 hours, with full curing achieved in 7 days, making it a practical option for both rapid repairs and large-scale waterproofing projects.
