No it can not. Brush'n seal would work best here.
brush’n seal is a pre-blended, ready to use heavy duty coating designed
for waterproofi ng, sealing and decorating all concrete, concrete block,
brick and masonry surfaces. Suitable for both interior and exterior
applications, above or below grade. Dries to a medium white fi nish that
can be painted with latex paint.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
• moisture sealant for masonry surfaces
• dries white
• may be applied to painted concrete
USES
Ideal for waterproofi ng and sealing basement walls, foundations,
swimming pools and cisterns. Can also be applied as a decorative
fi nish to all types of concrete and masonry surfaces.
PROCEDURES
Mix and substrate temperatures should be maintained between 5 and
30ºC (40 and 86ºF) for at least 24 hours prior to and 48 hours after.
Surface preparation: Surfaces to be coated must be structurally sound
and clean. Remove all delaminated or unsound concrete by chipping
with a hammer and chisel or using a stiff wire brush. Repair all cracks
and holes with KING plug-tite. Remove any dirt, sand, dust, paint, etc.
by sweeping, vacuuming, scraping or wire brushing as required. For
walls previously painted with anything other than a cement-based paint
use a scraper or wire brush and remove as much material as possible
to create a good bond. The more paint removed the better the bond.
Remove all effl orescence, mold, grease or oil by scrubbing vigorously
with a strong detergent solution and fl ood with large volumes of potable
water. Clean the area to be repaired with potable water, leaving the
concrete saturated but free of standing water. Some very porous
concretes may require several applications of water to ensure complete
saturation.
Mixing: Mix approximately 293 ml (10 oz) of potable water per 1 kg (2.2
lb) of product. In a disposable plastic pail, put 1/2 of the required water
into pail fi rst, add the product and then add balance of the required
water. Mix to a pancake batter consistency and then allow the mix to
sit for 5 to 10 minutes before applying (avoid a “soupy” mix). A proper
mixture should adhere to the brush without dripping. NOTE: For painted
surfaces, replace at least 1/3 of the required mixing water with KING
Concrete Adhesive. This will further help the brush’n seal mix to adhere
to the original surface.
Placing: Dampen walls one hour before application of brush’n seal
and allow the moisture to soak in. Immediately prior to application, the
surface should be damp, but not dripping. Maintain this damp surface
during the entire application. When ready to begin application, a small
amount of water may be added if required to bring the mixture to a batter
like consistency. Stir mix occasionally during application. After mixing,
apply brush’n seal with a semi-stiff nylon bristle brush. Scrub the mix
well into the existing surface, ensuring you fi ll all the pores, and then
fi nish with a fi nal stroke in one direction. For a decorative appearance,
mixture can be fi nished with a sponge or fl oat. If wall becomes dry or
mix starts to pull during application, dampen the original surface again.
Do not add more water to the mixture. For normal waterproofi ng, a twocoat
application is recommended. Allow the fi rst coat to cure for 24
hours then dampen surface and apply second coat.
Curing: Allow application to harden suffi ciently (approximately 3 hours)
then fog spray with clean water. Keep the surface continuously damp
for 3 days. This step is critical during hot or windy days.
PAINTING
Allow 28 days before applying paint.
CLEAN UP
Clean all tools with water immediately after use.
