wedi 520 is waterproof and frost-resistant, for universal indoor and outdoor use on walls and floors in both humid and wet areas, such as balconies, wash rooms, as well as in toilet and shower facilities. wedi 520 is ageing-resistant, not susceptible to environmental influences. It is also suitable for crack-bridging, provides good protection in the case of subsequent surface cracking.
Application:
- At the beginning of the installation of a wedi Shower Tray Sealing Set, mark the shower tray to indicate the height difference between the subfloor and the tile surface – for this, take the height of the floor tile and the tile adhesive into an account. Apply the butyl strip part of the sealing corners to the outer edges of the tray under the mark.
- Apply the 520 sealant to the back of the sealing corners, then apply the sealing tape with a 50mm overlap to the corners. Press firmly together and continue applying the butyl strip part of the sealing tape around the tray, under the mark.
- Apply wedi 520 sealant to the adjacent surfaces. Fold the tape into the 520 sealant, then apply another layer of sealant on top, ensuring to fully embed the tape.
- Now fold the sealing corners into the 520 sealant, and apply another layer of sealant on top, ensuring to fully embed the corners as well.
