Description
Black Bituminous Paint – Multi-Purpose Waterproof & Protective Coating
Durable Weatherproof & Corrosion-Resistant Protection
Black Bituminous Paint is a solvent-based, general-purpose protective coating designed for waterproofing, weatherproofing and corrosion protection across a wide range of construction and industrial surfaces.
It is suitable for use on steelwork, asphalt, wood, concrete, brick and stone. Once fully cured, it forms a durable, odourless and taint-free bitumen film, providing long-term resistance to water, oxidation and environmental exposure.
Key Benefits
- Waterproof & weatherproof: creates a continuous protective barrier against moisture.
- Corrosion resistance: protects metal surfaces from rust and oxidation.
- Multi-surface compatibility: adheres to metal, concrete, brick, stone and timber.
- Taint-free when cured: suitable for use on potable water tanks once fully dry.
- Chemical resistance: withstands low concentrations of acids and alkalis.
- Versatile use: ideal for industrial, commercial and domestic applications.
Typical Applications
- Protection of external metalwork such as fire escapes, ladders and handrails
- Coating gutters, downpipes and exterior steel structures
- Waterproofing potable water tanks once fully cured
- Weatherproofing concrete, brick and stone surfaces
- General-purpose waterproofing and corrosion protection
Application Overview
Surface Preparation
- Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry and free from rust, oil, grease and loose debris.
- Remove existing corrosion from metal surfaces by wire brushing.
- Porous or dusty surfaces should be primed with a compatible bitumen primer if required.
Application Method
- Apply evenly by brush or spray, avoiding excessive build-up or pooling.
- A minimum of two coats is recommended for effective protection.
- Allow sufficient drying time between coats in line with site conditions.
Curing & Appearance
- Dries to a black, glossy finish.
- The finish will gradually dull over time when exposed to UV light.
- Once fully cured, the coating becomes odourless and taint-free.
Technical Information
- Colour: Black (gloss finish when dry)
- Application: Brush or spray
- Coats required: Minimum of two
Black Bituminous Paint provides reliable, long-lasting waterproofing and corrosion protection, making it a practical solution for protecting metalwork, masonry and structural surfaces.
