TUFF COAT
PRODUCT COMPOSITION: AWC Tuff Coat is a high quality water-based acrylic finish designed for external wall waterproofing. It includes an epoxy additive which increases the abrasion resistance of the applied film. To create a smooth surface finish, special spherical silica sand can be added to the AWC Tuff Coat. By adding silica sand to the emulsion, the resultant mixture creates a fine uniform textured smooth surface which makes is useful for waterproofing of wall.

- Resistant to UV degradation thus maintains long-term stability of colours.
- Provides a durable, non-skid texture on interior and exterior surfaces
- Resists wear and abrasion when epoxy additive is used.
- Prevents the degradation of asphalt substrate by preventing the degradation of the vital asphalt mix oils.
- Helps in preventing dusting & spalling of concrete surface besides external waterproofing.
- Easy to clean as it resists the penetration of moisture from general soils, motor oils and gasoline.
- Does not create any toxic fumes or foul/objectionable odour. Hence it is safe for the applicator as well as the users after application.

CLEAR COAT
PRODUCT COMPOSITION: AWC Clear Coat is a water-based, penetrating sealer designed to produce a clear, semi-gloss surface sheen and is an important component of the exterior wall waterproofing solution. AWC Clear Coat is manufactured using advanced acrylic resins that are non-yellowing and provide a durable, long-lasting water-repellent finish. It even has a very high dirt pick-up resistance, offers good weather protection and is also moderately graffiti resistant. A unique advantage of AWC Clear Coat is its low viscosity which allows it to “wet in” and lock into the substrate. This allows the moisture and vapour trapped in the interior to escape but prevents the entry of external moisture. Besides waterproofing of walls, AWC Clear Coat also provides a uniform appearance for years by eliminating the possibility of blotch creation due to water staining.
How does AWC Clear Coat work?
AWC Clear Coat is designed as a penetrating sealer to be used over prepared smooth or textured surfaces, exposed aggregate concrete, brick, stone or stucco surfaces or surfaces where semi-gloss sheen is required. It even creates a long-lasting durable surface that is ideal for exposed aggregate and vertical or horizontal prepared surfaces.
AWC Clear Coat forms a smooth, semi-glossy surface over a wide range of substrates and offers superior dirt pick-up resistance and easier graffiti removal.
Applications of AWC Clear Coat
- As a top-coat, AWC Clear Coat can be used over new or existing surfaces that are made of different substrates.
- It provides additional sheen and also makes cleaning easier. This makes it ideal for rejuvenating aged and/or oxidised skylights.
- Besides aiding in aesthetics, it is an important component of the exterior wall waterproofing solutions and hence highly recommended.
Product features & highlights
- Creates semi-gloss finish which increases dirt pick-up resistance
- Offers superior cleaning ability and superior graffiti removal ability
- Offers superior protection against airborne industrial chemicals
- Reduces chances of soil and fume absorption

SWIFT PLAST
PRODUCT COMPOSITION: AWC SWIFTPLAST External Plaster is an international grade premixed plaster to be applied on brick masonry and concrete surfaces. It is a cement-based plaster and highly water resistant which makes it ideal to be used for external wall waterproofing. Its special formulation and consistent composition make it a preferred replacement over the conventional site-mixed cement/sand plaster and gypsum plasters. AWC SWIFTPLAST External Plaster can also be used for patching a concrete or masonry joint mortar for bed thickness ranging between 4 -10 mm. However, AWC SWIFTPLAST External Plaster is not recommended to be used on painted surfaces.
How does AWC SWIFTPLAST External Plaster work?
Make sure that the brick wall plaster is cured with water the previous day. This aids in waterproofing of wall. Also ensure that all masonry joints are properly filled and racked. Remove the traces of any foreign material as this may impact the adhesion. Provide a Chicken mesh at the junction of concrete surfaces and brick walls. When applying over concrete surfaces, the use of cement slurry is highly recommended for superior adhesion.
Product features & highlights
- AWC SWIFTPLAST is formulated to comply with European, British and the US Standards
- Single Component pack with fixed mixing proportion helps ensure consistent quality of work
- Designed for Shrinkage compensation to reduce shrinkage cracks this helping in waterproofing of walls.
- Ideal for tiling while receiving SWIFTPLAST TILE FIX and TILE GROUT range of products
- It makes the wall suitable for painting with SWIFTPLAST SKIM COAT range of products after polishing.
