Blanke Aqua Shield Inside Corner

Blanke Aqua Shield Inside Corner

Blanke AQUA SHIELD is a thin waterproofing fabric that can be applied with thin-set mortar to most surfaces that are dry, flat, and structurally sound. Tile can be installed immediately on fabric without the cure time required for liquid-applied products. In addition to waterproofing, the Blanke AQUA SHIELD forms a vapor barrier making it ideal for steam rooms and saunas. A wide range of convenient accessories is available such as the Blanke AQUA CORN-I and CORN-A for corners, BLANKE AQUA SA, a self-adhesive tape for a quick, convenient taping of seams, and the BLANKE AQUA SEAL, a waterproof polymer adhesive for sealing seams and preformed corners.
