Raincheck ECO Water Seal

Good afternoon,

Thank you for your question.

Raincheck® ECO Water Seal surface water repellent for masonry. It can be used on old and new buildings to protect brick, stone and concrete façades from penetrating damp.

The product is designed for use on vertical surfaces and is not suitable for use on floors - it is not a trafficable coating and will break down.

We would suggest this product is not suitable for your intended/proposed application.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Good Morning

Thank you for your enquiry.

As Raincheck ECO Water Seal is a water repellent as opposed to a waterproofer, we cannot recommend that this product is used for this type of application.

Apologies that I can be of no further assistance in this instance, however if you do have further questions please contact us on 01403 210204 or via email at [email protected].

Kind regards

Good afternoon,

Thank you for your enquiry.

Raincheck® ECO Water Seal should not be applied to a wall below the line of a physical or chemical DPC. These areas often contain high concentrations of salts that can become trapped when a product with high vapour permeability allows moisture to evaporate from the wall. This process is called crypto-efflorescence and can lead to spalled brickwork.

If a finish is required below the DPC line and the existing render or surface coating has been removed, Drybase® TS-PLUS Tanking Slurry can be applied. The dense nature of the slurry reduces the risk of crypto-efflorescence and prevents DPC bridging.

I hope this helps and if you have any further questions, please let us know.

Kind regards,

Good Morning

Thank you for your question regarding this product.

Raincheck ECO Water Seal should not be applied over sealed or painted surfaces. This is because the product needs to be able to penetrate the substrate.

If you have any further questions, please let us know

Good Morning Dawn

Thank you so much for your enquiry.

In answer to your question, yes you can paint over Raincheck ECO Water Seal with a Masonry Paint, however this must be done 3-10 days after the application of the water seal. After this time the water repellent effect of Raincheck Eco would prevent the paint from adhering correctly.

If you have any further questions please feel free to contact us directly.

Yours sincerely

Good afternoon Steve

Thank you for your enquiry.

Raincheck Eco Waterseal is a product designed to be exclusively used on external walls.

The product has not been tested for internal application and we would therefore advise against it.

Please contact us directly if you are looking to get further advice.

Good afternoon Clive,

Thank you for your enquiry.

As this product is a surface coating only, it would typically need to be reapplied every 1-2 years.

We would advise you to keep an eye on the surface beading and use this as an indication of when the product would need to be reapplied.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
