WETSUIT® PRODUCTS

The WetSuit® System consists of a range of environmentally friendly solutions used throughout the building envelope that meet specific roofing, waterproofing, and air vapour barrier requirements. All of our fluid applied, seamless membranes are water based, cold applied, Coal/Tar Free, has no VOCs, are Class A fire rated, and have  self extinguishing capabilities. 

 The WetSuit® system includes

• WetSuit® 2 PARTs Instant Set liquid applied membrane
• WetSuit® 1 PART Self-leveling liquid applied membrane
• WetSuit® UNDERCOVER pre-strip joints, penetration, or details
• WetSuit® TROWEL and FIBER TROWEL for Patching details
• WetSuit® PRIME MATE Water-Based primer

The WetSuit® liquid membrane is a fully self adhered, cold spray applied, self flashing membrane with a wide variety of uses for virtually all above and below grade applications. It can be sprayed to any millimetre thickness in a single pass, thus creating a truly custom and precise membrane, allowing unparalleled architectural freedom and ease of application. Spraying system & coating covered by US Pat. No. 8,919,278, US Pat. No. 8,940,382 and patent pending.

Unrivaled Quality & Versatility

FM testing has qualified WetSuit® in a class of its own. It is one of a select few materials on the market with a Class A fire rating, severe hail resistance, 2124% elongation, and a wind uplift of Class 1-990! WetSuit® is proven as a viable air and vapor barrier, and with very low perms, the WetSuit® can be employed not only in belowgrade  applications and roofing but in between as a seamless, fluid applied vapour barrier.

The Healthier and Safer Coating Alternative

The water-based, no VOC, low pressure, cold spray applied,  non flammable features of The WetSuit® eliminate job hazards such as torches, solvents, and heavy equipment.

Time and Money Saving

Because WetSuit® is so lightweight and with excellent adhesion to most surfaces, the need to tear off existing roofs is most often  eliminated, greatly reducing installation costs and environmental  impact. Surface preparation is generally limited to pressure washing the  old roof to provide a clean surface for WetSuit® to adhere to. Utilising only one applicator, WetSuit® can be installed at a fast and  efficient rate of 1500 sq ft per hour, reducing crew size and job time.

The WetSuit® 1 PART is a water based, medium viscosity, self leveling  liquid applied membrane that can be sprayed, brushed, or roll applied  up to 80 mils wet vertically. WetSuit® 1 PART is used in roofing,  waterproofing, and air vapor barrier applications. For roofing, WetSuit® 1 PART is ideal for standing seam metal, aged SPF, wood, and concrete. Our reinforcement fabric, Invisilink™, is  frequently embedded into WetSuit® 1 PART during the preparatory phase by  application to existing seams and joints, or to create a fully reinforced membrane. WetSuit® 1 PART is primarily used as a stand-alone membrane or as counter-flashing to WetSuit® 2 PARTs.

The WetSuit® UNDERCOVER is a water based, medium viscosity,  self leveling membrane that can be sprayed, brushed, or roll applied up to 80 mils wet vertically. UNDERCOVER is used exclusively under, or between, the WetSuit® products. WetSuit® UNDERCOVER exhibits a tenacious adhesion to most substrates  and is primarily used as a detailed product in conjunction with  Invisilink™ fabric to detail penetrations, pre strip in joints, edging,  or cant strips, or self-level areas prior to WetSuit® 2 PARTs application.

 WetSuit® TROWEL is a high viscosity, water-based coating specifically  designed as a roofing and waterproofing patch. Applied by trowel or  brush, it is ideal for sealing leaky roof penetrations, ducting,  flashings, cracks, joints, and tears. WetSuit® TROWEL is ideal on EPDM, TPO, asphalt, wood, metal, concrete and foam. Additionally, WetSuit®  TROWEL can be used as a waterproofing adhesive for setting tile and  stone and is a very efficient product for preparation to fill cracks,  and voids and as a boot for small penetrations. 

 WetSuit® TROWEL has been reinforced with fiberglass strands which cures into a high tensile strength, minimum elongation roofing, and  waterproofing patch. Trowel, brush, or hand applied, it works perfectly for detailing high movement areas such as penetrations and joints. 

WetSuit® PRIME MATE is a high-quality, plasticiser-free,  single-component, water-based, acrylic primer for spray brush or roller  application. It is designed to provide both excellent adhesion as well  as plasticiser migration resistance. It is formulated to block  plasticiser migration from PVC membranes that can cause unsightly  discoloration and premature failure of elastomeric coating systems. It has excellent adhesion to most single ply surfaces including PVC,  Hypalon and aged TPO. It has the unique ability to “breath”, providing a completely  watertight membrane while allowing trapped moisture to escape.
