Key Benefits:

• Rising Damp Protection: Forms an effective chemical barrier to prevent moisture from rising through walls, protecting against damp and associated damage.
• Long-Lasting Results: The advanced formulation provides durable protection for years, preventing damp from returning and maintaining the structural integrity of the property.
• Easy Application: Supplied in a 380ml cartridge for easy use with standard applicator guns, allowing for precise injection into pre-drilled holes in masonry.
• Quick and Clean Treatment: The cream-based formula is non-messy, quick to inject, and requires no special preparation, minimizing disruption during application.
• Safe and Environmentally Friendly: Solvent-free and non-toxic, ensuring it’s safe for indoor use with no harmful fumes.

Applications and Use Cases:

• Rising Damp Treatment: Perfect for treating rising damp in both internal and external walls, stopping moisture from damaging brick, stone, and masonry.
• Residential and Commercial: Suitable for use in a wide range of building types, including homes, offices, basements, and historic structures prone to rising damp.
• Preventative and Remedial Use: Ideal for both new and existing buildings, whether as a preventative measure or for addressing existing damp issues.

Compatibility Information:

• Surface Compatibility: Effective on a wide range of masonry surfaces, including brick, stone, and concrete. Works well with most building materials used in damp-prone areas.
• Not Recommended For: Areas with severe structural damage where additional repairs are needed prior to damp treatment.

Performance Metrics:

• Coverage: A single 380ml cartridge typically treats up to 10 linear meters of a single course of 9-inch thick wall, though coverage may vary depending on the thickness and condition of the wall.
• Drying Time: The Ultracure 380 cream cures within 48 hours, and full damp-proofing protection is achieved within 6-8 weeks as walls gradually dry out.

Instructions for Use:

1. Preparation: Drill 12mm diameter holes at regular intervals (typically 120mm apart) along the mortar course, about 150mm above ground level or as specified in the building assessment.
2. Application: Insert the Wykamol Ultracure 380 cartridge into a standard applicator gun. Inject the cream into the pre-drilled holes until they are filled with the product.
3. Finishing: After injection, seal the holes with an appropriate filler or mortar. Over time, the cream will spread and form a damp-proof barrier.

Usage Tips:

• Optimal Placement: Ensure holes are drilled evenly along the mortar line to allow even distribution of the cream for maximum effectiveness.
• Preparation: Remove any loose debris or dust from the drilled holes before injecting the cream to ensure proper adhesion and absorption.

Safety Precautions:

• Protective Equipment: Wear gloves and safety glasses during application to avoid contact with skin and eyes.
• Ventilation: Use in a well-ventilated area, especially in enclosed spaces such as basements.
