For critical detailing, Silcor LM PU Sealant is used to form bond breaker fillets in internal corners and around penetrations, ensuring flexibility at stress points. Once cured, the membrane's protection strategy depends on the final finish: it can be covered by screeds with a tie coat (using an additional layer of Silcor 575 LB and blinded with aggregate), protected by Protectoboard or Rapid-Drain for backfilled or unbonded screed applications, or exposed to UV and light foot traffic when overcoated with Silcor Top Coat 75.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n  \u003csection class=\"product-content-section\" aria-labelledby=\"decision-heading\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 id=\"decision-heading\"\u003eChoose this when\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n        \u003cstrong\u003eWhen you need a single membrane for both concealed and exposed horizontal waterproofing.\u003c\/strong\u003e Silcor 575 LB provides the flexibility to perform in both scenarios with the appropriate top coat.\n      \u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n        \u003cstrong\u003eWhen dealing with balconies, roof decks, podiums, or internal wet area floors.\u003c\/strong\u003e Its semi self-levelling properties ensure a smooth, continuous finish on horizontal substrates.\n      \u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n        \u003cstrong\u003eWhen high movement capability is critical.\u003c\/strong\u003e Its \u0026gt;800% elongation bridges non-structural cracks and accommodates typical structural movements.\n      \u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n        \u003cstrong\u003eWhen compliance with Australian waterproofing standards for Class III membranes is required.\u003c\/strong\u003e Silcor 575 LB is certified to AS 4654.1 and AS\/NZS 4858.\n      \u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n  \u003csection class=\"product-content-section\" aria-labelledby=\"limitations-heading\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 id=\"limitations-heading\"\u003eDon't use this when\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n        \u003cstrong\u003eNot for: heavy duty foot or vehicle traffic.\u003c\/strong\u003e Even with Silcor Top Coat 75, this membrane system is not designed for high-impact or vehicular loads.

Silcor 575 LB is specifically formulated for horizontal substrates, offering semi self-levelling properties that result in a smooth finish. This makes it ideal for areas like balconies and podiums where a high-quality aesthetic is desired, and crucially, it can be exposed to UV and light foot traffic when overcoated with Silcor Top Coat 75. In contrast, Silcor 560 HB Low VOC is a thixotropic (non-sag) membrane. This characteristic makes it more suited for vertical applications and detailing, but it must always be concealed as it is not UV stable. Choose Silcor 575 LB when your project requires a seamless, self-levelling horizontal membrane that offers the option of an exposed finish; opt for Silcor 560 HB Low VOC when a non-sag, concealed membrane is needed for vertical or detailed work.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/section\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"GCP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46073736364224,"sku":"SILCOR575\/22","price":316.77,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0507\/3630\/0224\/files\/silcor-575-waterproofing-membrane-balconies-adheseal.png?v=1763712020"},{"product_id":"fatrafol-804-unreinforced-waterproofing-membrane","title":"Fatrafol 804 Unreinforced Waterproofing Membrane","description":"\u003cp\u003eFatrafol 804 is a high-quality, unreinforced PVC (PVP-P based) waterproofing membrane designed for use as a component within Fatrafol reinforced roofing systems.
