Vandex Super/Super White
VANDEX SUPER and VANDEX SUPER WHITE are of similar nature. VANDEX SUPER is based on gray cement and is concrete gray in color, whereas VANDEX SUPER WHITE utilizes white cement as the binder and is white in color. The remainder of this document will reference both products as VANDEX SUPER, unless noted. VANDEX SUPER becomes an integral part of the concrete substrate once applied and waterproofs the negative or positive side through a crystallization process. The crystals created block the capillaries and minor shrinkage cracks within the concrete to prevent any further water ingress. In addition to waterproofing, VANDEX SUPER protects concrete substrates against saltwater, wastewater, harsh ground water and certain chemical solutions. VANDEX SUPER is ANSI/NSF certified for use with potable water.
