03. Application System & Protocol
1
Surface Preparation

Remove all dust, dirt, oil, and loose debris. Surface must be completely dry before application. Substrate must be sloped at a minimum gradient of 2%.

2
Undercoat Layer (Optional)

Apply three (3) coats of GURTEX® SG368 undercoat by brush, roller, or spray. Allow them to dry completely.

3
Topcoat Layer Application

Apply the 1st and 2nd coats of SG168 using slow, smooth, crisscross overlapping strokes. Allow 4 hours minimum drying time between coats at 25°C.

4
Final Build

Build up layers until the total thickness of the coating reaches 0.5 - 1 mm. Do not apply excessively thick layers, as this may cause cracking.

04. Cautions & Limitations
Ponding Water Restriction

This membrane system is not suitable for areas subjected to long-term ponding or standing water. Adequate surface drainage slope is mandatory.

Foot Traffic Restriction

This product is not designed to withstand heavy foot traffic or mechanical wear. Application must be limited to sloped, non-traffic exterior surfaces.

Environmental Constraints

Do not apply when substrate temperature exceeds 40°C. If relative humidity exceeds 80%, the standard curing time will be extended by approximately 3 days.
