ADVANTAGES
-Significantly lowers the temperature of the coated surface, significantly reducing heat penetrating into the room and improving living comfort -Reduces the energy consumption required for cooling the environment -Excellent resistance to UV radiation -Excellent adhesion to the surfaces -Protects surfaces from high temperature fluctuations by reducing expansion/contraction of materials in favour of increased durability -Excellent elasticity -Quick and easy to apply
MAINTENANCE
In order to maintain the aesthetic and functional quality of the coating, if necessary, repaint the surfaces after they have been thoroughly cleaned and the product applied according to the application methods indicated in the previous chapter.
PREPARING THE PRODUCT
AQUASCUD REFLEX is ready to use, simply mix the product before use with a drill mixer at low speed. Depending on the absorption of the substrate, environmental conditions and the application tool, the product can be diluted with up to 5% water by mixing with a drill mixer at low speed.

PREPARATION AND APPLICATION
CURING
If ambient conditions are suitable (temperature +20°C; relative humidity 60%), wait at least 12 hours after application before treading carefully on the treated surface.
PRODUCT APPLICATION
Coating for the waterproof thermal reflective finishing of flat, sloping, curved or complex shaped roofs, new or existing. On surfaces such as:
-Tiles, roof tiles, drainage channels and gutter -Polymer-modified two-component liquid coatings -Waterproofing of screeds and cement floors in general -Cured bitumen sheeting, galvanised sheet metal, fibreglass and fibre cement
APPLICATION
Apply AQUASCUD REFLEX in two coats by BRUSH, VOLTECO ROLLER or airless machine, with an interval between coats of at least 12 hours and for a total thickness of at least 0.5-0.6 mm, taking care to remove any dust and dirt that may settle on the first coat before applying the second. Further coats can be applied in the same way. In the case of micro-cracked substrates, insert the XNET mesh in a first abundant coat of AQUASCUD REFLEX and cover with a second coat after 12 hours. Protect it from rain for at least 12 hours
PREPARATION OF SURFACE PREPARING THE SURFACES
Thoroughly clean the surfaces by brushing or low-pressure washing to remove all traces of dust, dirt, salt deposits, efflorescence and loose parts. In the case of bituminous substrates, however, the surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned and degreased with pressurised water. For application on old, dusty screeds, use PROFIX 30 in advance (see relevant data sheet). Guard all elements of discontinuity, joints between horizontal and vertical surfaces with a suitable Volteco sealing system. In the case of structural expansion joints, please contact Volteco's Technical Service.
WARNINGS - IMPORTANT NOTES
Do not apply the product in strong sunlight. Do not store the product in direct sunlight before application. If AQUASCUD REFLEX is applied in unsuitable weather conditions, the curing times will be affected, thereby compromising the achievement of optimal aesthetics and performance characteristics.
The substrate must be dry and free of surface condensation; in the case of a concrete substrate, a relative surface humidity of no more than 3% (measured with a Storch-type electrical hygrometer) is permissible. Wait at least 15 days for the substrate to cure in case of application on traditional screeds that have just been made.
Ensure the presence of adequate slopes and rainwater collection-disposal systems. In the case of pressure washing, wait until the substrate is completely dry. For applications on bituminous sheaths, check that they have cured for at least 6 months, in any case wait until the surface has completely oxidised. Then carry out preliminary product adhesion tests in order to verify the adequate consistency of the base coat and adhesion to it.
If the existing sheath is defective, it should be repaired before the product is applied.Direct application on bituminous membranes may result in alterations to the original colour of AQUASCUD REFLEX due to bitumen migration phenomena. In the case of applications on walkable surfaces, foot traffic may be light and occasional. The preparation and installation data refer to normal environmental conditions (temperature +20°C; relative humidity 60%). Clean tools with water while the product is still fresh.
