Description
Tamoseal Foundation Coating is a cement-based waterproofing material specifically designed to waterproof the exterior surface of below grade concrete and masonry. When properly applied, this formulation becomes an integral part of the wall, filling and sealing the pores and voids in the surface, while remaining breathable. Tamoseal is normally applied to the positive side, but may be applied to the negative side when hydrostatic pressures are low and aesthetics are not important.

Coverage
- Block Walls: Normal waterproofing conditions - 2 coats of Tamoseal Foundation Coating at a rate of 2 lb/yd² (1.08 kg/m²) per coat.
- Concrete Foundations: Normal waterproofing conditions - one coat at a minimum of 2 lb/yd² (1.08 kg/m²) using Akkro-7T/water mixing liquid blend.
- Walls: Severe water pressure - a base coat at 2 lb/yd² (1.08 kg/m²) and trowel on finish coat at a rate of 1 lb/yd² (.54 kg/m²).
- Trowel Applications: Add 25 lb (11.3 kg) clean silica sand to each 50 lb (22.7 kg) of Tamoseal Foundation Coating and use the Akkro-7T/water mixing liquid blend.
- Parge Coating Masonry Units: Mix 25 lb (11.3 kg) of clean silica sand to each bag of Tamoseal Foundation Coating and apply uniformly. Upon completion of the parge coat, apply a coat of Tamoseal Foundation Coating at a rate of 2 lb/yd² (1.08 kg/m²).
Note: Coverage rates are approximate and will depend on the texture and porosity of the substrate.
