    Where to use RAINSEAL BMW 250: bituminous waterproof coating for roofs and retaining walls

    RAINSEAL BMW 250 is a bituminous waterproof coating blended with elastomeric acrylic, for concrete, steel and chemically treated floors. This water-based, cold-applied acrylic bitumen waterproofing is a single component liquid membrane that is ready to use straight from the pack. It goes on by brush or sprayer and dries to a black coating.

    • Terraces & Sloped Roofs

      Apply two coats by brush or sprayer.

    • MS/ACC Sheets

      Cold-applied liquid membrane for sheet roofing.

    • External Retaining Walls

      Water-based coating recommended for external retaining walls.

    • Bathrooms & Toilets

      Sprinkle fine dry sand on the wet final coat if mortar follows.

    • Old Bituminous Roofs & Tarfelt (Repair)

      Adheres to existing bitumen and tarfelt, used with Geo or glass fibre tissue.

    • Pipelines & Metal Storage Tanks

      Coats steel pipelines and metal storage tanks.

    • Vehicle Underbody Coating

      Used for corrosion protection on vehicle underbodies.

    • Concrete, Steel & Chemical-Treatment Floors

      Single-component coating for concrete, steel and chemically treated floors.

    If you are working out how to repair old bitumen roof areas, this liquid bitumen coating adheres to existing bitumen and tarfelt. Elongation is 500%, water absorption 0.5–0.8% and temperature resistance -5°C to +85°C. Each coat dries in 40–50 min, depending on climate. Dilute with up to 20% water and apply two coats. For more mechanical strength, embed Fibre Mesh or Geo Fabric after the primer coat and first coat, then apply two further coats over the fabric.

    Armstrong Chemicals supplies RAINSEAL BMW 250 to sites across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, including Hyderabad, Vijayawada, Bengaluru, Kochi and Chennai.

    5-in-1 Application System

    One Coating, Five Solutions

    A single-component acrylic-bituminous membrane that repairs old bitumen roofs, waterproofs terraces and toilets, protects pipelines and storage tanks from corrosion, and even guards vehicle underbodies — one product across construction and industrial sites.

    Why It Works

    Why Single-Use Coatings Fall Short

    Most waterproofing coatings are built for one job — a roof, a wall, a tank. Site teams end up stocking multiple products for work that could be done with one membrane.

    The BMW 250 Advantage

    One acrylic-bituminous membrane that repairs old bitumen felts, waterproofs terraces and toilets, and protects pipelines, tanks and vehicle underbodies from corrosion.

    Built to Repair, Not Just Coat

    Applied straight over old bitumen and tarfelt for repair work; used with Geo fabric, it's a seamless, overlap-free alternative to re-felting.

    A Base Coat for the Whole Armstrong Range

    Overcoatable with ROOFCOAT PU 400, RAINCARE PU/PU 370, RAINSEAL, RAINSEAL 200 and RAINSEAL RWC 902 — engineered to work as part of a layered system.

    How to Use

    1

    Dilute RAINSEAL BMW 250 with up to 20% water; apply by brush or sprayer.

    2

    For a primer coat, dilute with water in a 2:1 ratio wherever necessary.

    3

    Apply two coats for dependable, excellent waterproofing.

    4

    For increased mechanical strength, embed Fibre Mesh / Geo Fabric after the primer coat and first coat, then apply two further coats over the fabric.

    5

    If cement mortar or concrete work follows, sprinkle fine dry sand onto the wet final coat for extra bonding strength.
