Waterproofing
QF2 Fire Protection Compound is not waterproof and as it is mostly gypsum based will absorb water if exposed. It can potentially be treated with a 2-part epoxy paint in order to offer some waterproofing but it must be fully dried before application and we recommend a trial is carried out before application to check compatibility and adhesion.
