Drybase Liquid-Applied DPM Black 1 l

Just put a small 7ft x 6ft uPVC on the back of the bungalow, there was already a patio area with slabs over a hard core/cement base so rather than digging out foundations the porch sits over the slabs. To seal any damp that might come up through the slabs I did some research about damp proof course products and went for Drybase as it was available in an easy to apply liquid with a brush or roller, I used a brush. It also dries very quickly and has hardly any odour. I liked the fact it not only protects against damp but also various harmful gases. I cleaned the slabs before application and although 2 coats are recommended to be on the safe side and to fill in the tiny gaps between the slabs I put 4 coats on. Criss crossing coats. It took about 6hours altogether from application to completion. I'm very pleased with the finish, it feels warm to the touch, the gaps are sealed between the slabs and where the bottom of the walls join the floor. The temperature outside when I did it was around 20C. I laid the vinyl flooring the next morning and an outdoor rug just protect the vinyl a bit. It really is brilliant stuff. In fact it's so good I've used some of it to repaint the top of my large air source heat pump, because the window installers had scratched the paint off when fitting a new kitchen window and I didn't want the AHP cover to rust. In fact I've only just painted the AHP top cover and it's just 10C outside maybe a bit less, and the Drybase still took less than an hour to dry between coats. It's not meant to be used in this way, but seeing as I'd bought a 5L can and only used about 1L I thought I might as well use some of it up. I believe from memory the shelf life once opened is about 2years if kept sealed and in a dark cool shed or outbuilding. I read that the life of the product used on the actual floor is about 2-3yrs so I'll give the porch floor another 4 coats in 2 years time whether it needs it or not. So yes I'd recommend this product, the hardest thing was getting the lid off and putting it back on again. Oh and it goes a looooong way, so I'd recommend getting a 1L tin to start, because that's all I used and ended up with 3/4 of a tin left over. And if you do need to get a second tin 2 x 1L tins are only £40 so cheap enough for a professional finish!

The Drybase Liquid Damp Proof Membrane is an outstanding product that truly lives up to its promises. I recently used this on a problem area in my home, where dampness had been an ongoing issue, and the results were impressive. Applying the paint was straightforward. The consistency is just right—not too thick, so it spreads easily, but not too thin either, ensuring solid coverage. The 1-litre can be enough to cover a decent-sized area, and the white colour provided a clean, bright finish. It dried quickly and left a smooth, even layer that looked great. What really impressed me was how effectively this paint sealed the walls and floors, creating a reliable barrier against moisture. Since applying it, I’ve noticed a significant reduction in dampness, and my walls have stayed dry even during wet weather. It's clear that this product is doing its job perfectly. If you're dealing with damp issues in your home, I highly recommend the Drybase Liquid Damp Proof Membrane. It’s a quality waterproofing solution that provides both peace of mind and a professional finish. I'll definitely be using it again for any future projects!

We had some bridging over the dpc from our porch into the hallway. After some re-plumbing, I used this to try and seal the wall to prevent water getting in. So far so good. Very easy to put on, the people complain it is too thin either have no idea what they are on about or bought a different product to me! Worth the money for small damp issues. Just follow the instructions

Works amazing does have strong smell, tells you how to use on tub and goes on easy enough.

Spent ages looking for good sealant for walls and floor on my bay window to make sure totally waterproof. This definitely was a good buy, not as thick as expected but spreads well and easy to paint. Need to change the stroke angle on each çoat and then forms a good barrier. Feels like flexible plastic coat. I used their outside water seal as well, both are excellent water resistant products. More expensive but value for money as only need to do one time and lasts years. Nice was the white colour.

A little bit hard to review at the moment, I have an internal conservatory double door that leads from the kitchen into the conservatory which years ago must of been a wall as the conservatory was added on after the house was built. I took up the old lino since having a new kitchen fitted as you could feel loose concrete under that part of the door, The lino was mouldy underneath and I first thought it was due to the bathroom flooding above before we moved in and that the room wasn't dried out properly. I removed all the old broken concrete and left to air dry for 2 weeks. I laid some concrete based levelling compound to fill in the divets and to make it nice and flush. All bone dry, Nearly 2 weeks later I noticed damp patches coming up through the new concrete I laid which eliminated the old bathroom flood cause. I read a review on here that someone with an old cottage has the same issue so I got this stuff. It goes on really easy just like emulsion, It's important to paint the first coat in one direction then once dry paint in the other direction ( up down then left and right). So far the floor is totally sealed and feels bone dry. I like how it's so easy to clean from a brush it cleans easier than standard emulsion water based paint. My new floor won't be going down yet probably not until September/October so I will come back and say if this has worked. My only concern is where will the damp go? Will it travel and affect somewhere else? We'll see. Update: 12/8/2020, Dropping to 3 stars: The pros - I keep getting these small patches coming through parts of a painted wall it maybe salts but not 100% sure it's not sopping wet or anything as i drilled a bit of the wall out and it seemed dry and no matter what paint I used they kept appearing so this stuff has blocked them, All the other products like damp seal etc the patches have always appeared after a week but not with this stuff. Con: So my damp patch concrete floor is sealed with maybe 6 coats, I can see when I lift up the old lino there are bubbles appearing and there is slight wet on top of the membrane, I'm not sure if it's condensation or if the water is some way getting through the membrane and the rest of the surrounding area is bone dry. When I applied the surface was dried out with a mini heater and before I put lino back down the 6 thick coats of this stuff was bone dry too. I may have to just live with that little damp patch as I can't be paying thousands for things to be ripped out etc

This was very poorly packaged in an oversize box with no protective padding. The lid has obviously dislodged causing it to leak. I received the same product only yesterday (i needed 2) it was in an inner box and very well packaged. So im disappointed with this delivery. Overall its a very good product and would highly reccomend it. 4 stars for product minus 1 for packagaging.

Weißes flüssiges EPDM gibts noch nicht so lange in Doofland. Bislang habe ich das Zeug immer sehr teuer aus den USA georderet um damit mein US Wohnmobildach zu erneuern. In Amiland ist das ja Gang und Gäbe und hat sich dort millionenfach im Campersektor bewährt. Nun fand ich kürzlich dieses Produkt hier in Amazon und war vom Preis überrascht. Probiere ich doch mal, dachte ich. Und ich kann nur sagen - nichts falsch gemacht. Das EPDM ist sicher kein Deutsches Produkt wie das Label auf dem Behältnis ausweist. Kann mir ja auch egal sein. Es funktioniert fabelhaft. Zwar wird darauf verwiesen, das bei einer Neubeschichtung mindestens zwei Durchgänge erforderlich sind, aber ich machs lieber drei oder viermal mit entsprechenden Trocknungsphasen von 24 Std. Es haftet jedenfalls (auf meinen Händen) unglaublich. Mit Wasser wäscht sich da nichts ab wenns erstmal ( nach ca 30 Minuten) angetrocknet ist. Handschuhe bei der Verarbeitung wirklich von Vorteil. Schönes sonniges Wetter- auch auf absehbare Zeit - ebenfalls. Mit einem Eimer (5 Liter) habe ich mein derzeitiges Womo Projekt ( 25qm Dachfläche) einwandfrei rollernd beschichten können. Ein begehbares,genietetes Aludach (wie bei meinem LKW) ist damit wesendlich leiser, rutschfester, leichter zu reinigen und schlichtweg dicht. Auch wenn das Zeug aus der Bausparte kommt und nicht explizit für Camper angeboten wird - EPDM ist EPDM - und ein weißes Womodach hält Hitze fern. Aus der Erfahrung hält sowas locker 10 Jahre und braucht dann nur nachgestrichen zu werden. Ich empfehle es hiermit ohne Einschränkungen. Deshalb fünf Sterne.

Used this in a bare concrete floor that was showing signs of moisture rising when it was covered with lino type flooring. The photo shows before and after one coat. I just had enough for another coat but it could do with another even though it suggests 2. Maybe I could have applied it a bit thicker but I'm not complaining about it. Up to now it appears to have a tacky feel to it even after 6 days. So it won't give a finished floor. Great stuff though and I recommend it!

Couché qui s efface aux intempéries

3 dagen op rij zouden ze zogezegd leveren, dan zonder reden bestelling gecancelled, ze kwamen of met een excuus dat ik maar een afhaalpunt had moeten selecteren ipv. mijn eigen woning... Ook iets dat de regio niet bereikbaar zou zijn (wat compleet verzonnen was, er was geen enkel excuus). De verzonnen excuses maken het nog een stuk erger.

Great product. Will. Definitely re purchase. Easy to apply and foes the job perfectly!
