The material is applied in individual troweled layers, which forms, successively, an elastic latex waterproof membrane, an integral waterproof base turned up at walls and equipment pads, and a durable finished floor.
MiraFlex BRF components are all combinations of liquid rubber latex polymers incorporating dehydrating powders, vulcanizers and special aggregates. The waterproof membrane and waterproof base are reinforced with a polypropylene mesh fabric. Topmost applications consist of a pigmented acrylic coating.
The product is designed for application over concrete or masonry surfaces, new or existing. Separate specifications are available for wood or plywood surfaces - consult Crossfield Products Corp. MiraFlex BRF components are entirely water-based and contain no hydrocarbon solvents. They have no toxic odor during application, are not flammable, and are environmentally safe.
The approximate thickness of MiraFlex BRF is 3/16" (4.7 mm). It is available in a range of 15 standard colors. Request Crossfield Products Corp. Design Guide 6 ("Design Ideas for Waterproofing a Mechanical Equipment Room") for detailing information
