A Fire Retardant and Waterproof Deck
System for Above Grade Applications.
DESCRIPTION AND USE
The MULTICOAT SLATEX ABOVE GRADE SYS-
TEM is a multi-layer protective coating designed
for decks 200 sq. ft. or less.  For decks larger
than 200 sq. ft., please refer to the SLATEX SYS-
TEM re-inforced with 2.5 galvanized metal lath. 
This system combines an elastomeric water-
proofing membrane (MULASTICOAT) with a
fiberglass re-inforced, synthetic resin modified
cementitious top coating (KRETE KOTE 2000 or
TOP COAT 2000).
The SLATEX ABOVE GRADE SYSTEM is
designed to withstand heavy foot traffic on
decks, ramps, walkways, etc.  The SLATEX
ABOVE GRADE SYSTEM can be applied to
concrete, wood, magnesite and most other sur-
faces or substrates in need of a waterproofing
and/or fire resistant protective coating.
