• If there are cracks or other damages on the surface, they must be previously repaired with Teknorep repair compounds.
• You should also determine the water pressure. Teknomer 200 EX W-Blue is resistant to positive water pressure. If the water pressure is negative, do not use this waterproofing.
• Sharp corners and edges must be sealed with a thick repair compound Teknorep 300.
• On the surface that will be laid with tiles, you should work out every corner with the help of Teknomer pah bandi tape.
