MAPEI Tech Tip on Mapelastic® AquaDefense Drying Time

MAPEI’s Mapelastic AquaDefense provides an easy way to apply rubber waterproofing. But one of the common questions we hear is, “How long does it take to dry?” And the answer is - it depends. There is dry for setting tile and there is dry for flood-testing. Confused? You don’t need to be. Watch to learn how dry is dry, or visit us online at www.mapei.us.

What’s the dry time between coats? Very hard to find this information for some reason.

Hello, we apologize for the delay in responding- this just appeared in our feed. The dry time after the first coat is typically up to an hour (dependent on porosity of surface and temp/humidity). The second coat takes a little longer as it is now being applied over a non-porous surface- sometimes an hour and half to two hours. You have to test it. Please contact us at [phone] if you have additional questions.
