Substrate guide
Proper surface preparation ensures the Wondercap RetroFit Kit achieves a secure, watertight seal around existing pipe penetrations.
Concrete
Surface prep: Ensure the concrete surface around the pipe is clean, dry, and free from loose debris, dust, or oils. Any rough edges should be smoothed to allow a flush fit.
Primer: Not required for this application.
Ceramic tiles
Surface prep: The tiled surface must be clean, dry, and structurally sound around the penetration. Remove any grout residue or loose tile fragments that might interfere with the seal.
Primer: Not required for this application.
Waterproof membranes
Surface prep: The membrane surface must be clean, dry, and intact around the pipe. Ensure no punctures or damage to the membrane that could compromise the seal.
Primer: Not required for this application.
