Project Conditions1. All surfaces to which the Aussie Membrane

500 is applied to must be sound and stable, with an even finish and free from dust, loose debris, grease, curing agents, etc. .

2. The Aussie Membrane 500 may be applied to damp but not waterlogged surfaces (Green Concrete)

5. Protect adjacent surfaces which could be damaged during the application procedure.

6. This system must not be used to cover Expansion Joints.

System ApplicationRead the AVM System 500 Installation Instructions Prior to Installation. Application instructions vary based on application surfaces. Following are common (Generic) application procedures only. For specific application procedures, download the appropriate installation instructions.

Preparation1. Make sure surface is even without holes,

gaps, etc. Make sure substrate has no cracks larger than 1/16" wide. Pay special attention to shrinkage cracks between the blocks and the mortar at the block’s joints.

2. If necessary, apply a thin slurry coat using AVM Crete 6200.

3. Apply a 4"x4" mortar cant at 45° at the cold joints. (Where the block meets the footings)

4. Priming is highly recommended! Especially if surfaces are old, dusty or very dense (such as solid concrete) Always use AVM Primer 500 when installing over horizontal surfaces. Apply Primer using roller, brush or sprayer.

Membrane InstallationRoller/Brush: Apply a liberal coat of the Aussie Membrane 500 to all surfaces. (Roll up and down) Allow to cure until dry to the touch. Apply a second coat of the Aussie Membrane 500 going side to side. Allow to dry to the touch. Check for pinholes and proper thickness using a mil gauge. Make sure it=s a minimum 60 mils at all places when completely dry and 90 mils if still wet. Full cure is typically achieved after 24 hours. Drying times may vary based on temperature, humidity and other factors. Applying a third coat is highly recommended.

Spray: Mix contents in bucket with drill and paddle for 30 - 60 seconds. Product will thin out significantly. (The thinning does not affect performance) Do NOT add water! Use an airless sprayer to apply. Apply product until saturated but stop before dripping or sagging occurs. Once dry to the touch, apply a second coat spraying in the other direction. Check for thickness. (60 mils dry / 90 mils wet)Important Notes: 1. 90 mils dry on vertical block walls is highly

recommended. 2. Although it is possible to spray 60 dry mils

in one coat, doing so in two coats reduces the chances of leaving spots and pinholes uncovered or with too little product.

Quality Controla. Visually inspect all coated surfaces to

ensure a full and proper coating application, especially at corners, drainage footings and other hard-to-reach areas.

b. All unsatisfactory areas shall be repaired prior to final acceptance.

Protection of Installed Worka. The completed section shall be protected

for the first 24 hours after application or until the surface is sufficiently cured. (The amount of drying time may vary depending on temperature and humidity conditions)

b. Always protect the waterproofing from possible damage. Install the AVM Drain Board 6000 and appropriate drainage system. Refer to Technical Details, “Min Thickness Table” and “Installation Instructions for more info.

Product DescriptionThe AVM Aussie Membrane 500 is a Water-Based rubber/bitumen liquid membrane modified with high performance rubberized polymers giving it excellent adhesion, which dries to a tough, black seamless flexible waterproof membrane. The Aussie Membrane 500 is a single component thixotropic cold-applied bitumen paste that exhibits excellent elongation and recovery properties. The AVM Aussie Membrane 500 has excellent long-term stability (maintains its properties over very long periods of time) un-like other below grade systems (including polyurethane based systems) that Crack and become brittle as they age.

Where to UseBetween Slabs / Topping Slabs / Hard Rock: For waterproofing between two slabs, under topping slabs, under hard rock and other sandwiched applications. Important notes: May be applied over concrete or plywood substrates. (See details)

WarrantyAVM Industries will warranty the installed membrane for a period of five (5) years. Ten (10) year warranties are also available. For complete warranty details, contact AVM Industries or consult with your applicator.

Delivery, Storage, and Handlinga. Delivery of all the AVM System 500 materials

to the job site must be in their original sealed containers, with manufacturer’s name and label intact.

b. Handle and store containers in accordance with printed instructions.

c. Store at temperatures between 50°F and 90°F. Do not store materials in direct sunlight or where they may be damaged by water or rain.

d. Failure to comply with the recommended storage conditions may result in premature deterioration of the product. For specific storage advice, please contact AVM Industries and/or its representatives.

e. Keep all materials out of the reach of children.

f. If irritation occurs during use, liberally flush affected areas with water. If irritation continues, see a physician immediately.

Project Conditions1. All surfaces to which the Aussie Membrane

500 is applied to must be sound and stable,

with an even finish and free from dust, loose debris, grease, curing agents, etc. .

2. The Aussie Membrane 500 may be applied to damp but not waterlogged surfaces (Green Concrete)

3. Do not apply materials at temperatures below 40°F and falling or if precipitation is imminent. Do not apply materials in direct sunlight at temperatures above 100°F or rising.

4. Warn personnel against hazards of materials to skin and eyes. Note other hazardous conditions on the job that might require special protective gear and or any other special protective or safety procedures.

5. Protect adjacent surfaces which could be damaged during the application procedure.

6. This system must not be used to cover Expansion Joints.

System ApplicationRead the AVM System 500 Installation Instructions Prior to Installation. Application instructions vary based on application surfaces. Following are common (Generic) application instructions for applications over concrete only. For detailed installation instructions, download the appropriate installation instructions.

Preparation1. Make sure concrete surfaces are even without

holes, gaps, etc. Make sure substrate has no cracks larger than 1/16” wide. (If applying over plywood substrates, refer to the “Between Slab Installation Instructions” and “Details” for more information)

2. If necessary, apply a thin slurry coat using AVM Crete 6200.

3. Apply a 1x1” mortar cant at 45° at horizontal-to-vertical transitions. Then apply a detail coat. (See details)

4. Primer: Apply AVM Primer 500 using a roller, brush or sprayer to all surfaces and allow to dry to the touch before installing the Aussie Membrane 500.

Membrane InstallationRoller/Brush: Apply liberal coats of the Aussie Membrane 500 to all surfaces until the desired thickness is achieved. (see AVM Aussie Membrane 500 500 Min Thickness Table for more info) Allow to cure between coats. Check for pinholes, bubbles and proper thickness using a mil gauge. Fix any imperfections as needed. Full cure is

typically achieved after 24-48 hours after the final coat was installed. Drying times may vary based on temperature, humidity and other factors. Spray: Mix contents in bucket with drill and paddle for 30 - 60 seconds. Product will thin out significantly. (The thinning does not affect performance) Do NOT add water! Use an airless sprayer to apply. Apply product until saturated but stop before dripping or sagging occurs. Once dry to the touch, apply a second coat spraying in the other direction. Continue to apply coats until the desired thickness is achieved.Important Notes: It’s better to apply multiple thin coats Vs. one or two thick coats. Applying coats too thick could cause material to crust over and slow down curing times. It could also lead to bubbling and delaminations.

Quality Controla. Visually inspect all coated surfaces to

ensure a full and proper coating application, especially at corners, drainage footings and other hard-to-reach areas.

b. All unsatisfactory areas shall be repaired prior to final acceptance.

Protection of Installed Worka. The completed section shall be protected

for the first 24 hours after application or until the surface is sufficiently cured. (The amount of drying time may vary depending on temperature and humidity conditions)

b. Always protect the waterproofing from possible damage. Install optional “protective Panels” and appropriate AVM Drainage Boards. Refer to Technical Details, “Min Thickness Table” and “Installation Instructions for more info.
