LATICRETE Hydro Barrier Plus Waterproofing 1 Gallon

I used this, along with Laticrete Waterproofing Membrane Fabric, to seal the joints in the cement board in my new tub enclosure. The products worked together very well and produced a low profile, watertight seal. It was very easy to apply tile over.

A little more expensive than the Home Depot brand but I bought it because I read that I wouldn’t have to worry about color bleed-through. I put up white tile with light grey grout.

This is a great product and works really well. There are several good YouTube videos on how to utilize this correctly. Watch out with ordering this, though. Amazon shipped this to me with other items I had ordered and the container leaked some in the box, ruining half of the other items. This product was still good to use and I had enough for what I was doing, but I highly recommend having this shipped with nothing else.

The product works great ... easy to apply..... easy to clean. I initially ordered one gallon for a 42 x 42 inch shower stall and it was not enough. Ordered a second gallon which was plenty. I applied it to hardie board which is very absorbent .... The reason for 4 stars and not 5 is both orders came damaged and contributed to me requiring 2 gallons. Approximately a pint was spilled during shipping from both gallons. The lid on the container is not very secure plus the fact the the shipper/packer was careless and did not use dunnage or padding. It's shipped in an oversize box so the contents bounce around inside the box. It's very pricey paint and more care should be placed in the packaging. Was very disappointed to receive two separate orders damaged.

This product was a great find I was redoing my master bath and was looking for a waterproofing agent. The option out there are all very different I enjoyed the ease and versatility of this product. I built a custom shower so looking at the options of sheets that I have to cut and mold to the shape of the shower just seemed like to many wasted man hours. Plus the price of the other sytems was much greater in the long run cause you have to but corner forms and tape and glue all those pieces together. This system you get he reinforcement tape and paint his into all the crack and crevasses apply the tape to the corners and paint a couple more layers throughout the entire shower encloser. Once this product dried you just tile right over it. Couldn't recommend this anymore otherwise I would

This is just the best exterior water proofer to use on Permabase or Durarock. I have used this to water proof a new fire pit, Pool water feature, and outdoor kitchen and then did the masonry work right on top. Also used a brown coat right on top for an acrylic stucco application on my outdoor kitchen. Great stuff. the 3.5 gallon is a much better value as well

I used this with its membrane product to completely waterproff my tub/shower suround over Denseshield backer board. I applied it with a 2-inch brush and it went quickly. It sits on top of the backer board about a 1/32 inch so it is no problem to tile over it and still keep the tiles at a uniform width. Be sure to fill all joints and nail/screws with their water proofing cauilking and flaten the caulking with a putty knife befort it sets up, prior to appling the Lacticrete Hydro Barrier.

Saw comments about leaking during shipping but did not experience that. Product was shipped inside plastic bag and surrounded by packing material in the box. No leaking at all. Easy to spread on Durock cement board. Decided to use rubber gloves b/c it was a bit difficult to get off my hands. Used 50' roll of 6" Waterproofing Fiberglass mesh tape tape but wish I would've ordered the 75' roll from X Fasten b/c I ran out on standard bathroom tub enclosure. Plus it was almost half the price.

Extremely well product. I've been using this in shower room before installing tiles.
