CIM 500 – Durable Waterproofing Membrane
CIM 500 is a tough, durable membrane specifically formulated to meet waterproofing demands in a buried and non-UV exposed application.
It adheres to most materials to form a permanent, seamless barrier to water.
It is well suited for plaza and podium decks, curbs, and areas containing multiple penetrations or irregular shapes, as well as split-slab applications.
Available in both a vertical and horizontal grade.

| CIM 500 Premix | CIM 500V Premix for Vertical Surfaces |
- tough, durable physical properties
- forms strong adhesive bond to concrete, wood, metal, and earth (with scrim fabric)
- applied by spray, brush, roller, or squeegee
- fast cure, high tensile strength, low VOC
- lower water permeability than competitive urethanes
- open to foot traffic within 3 hours
- UV stable for as long as 180 days
- little to no sloping is required
- chemically stable when subjected to constant moisture
- can be applied in low-temperature applications
- simple repair to existing installations
- planter boxes
- plaza and podium decks
- green roof applications
- split-slab applications
- below-grade applications
- apply by spray, brush, roller, or squeegee.
- apply to clean, dry, & sound surfaces free of dirt and debris.
- can be applied to concrete substrates having a (CSP 4-6) surface profile.
- mix and apply the following CIM industries application guides.
- use CIM 500V on all vertical surfaces and use CIM 500 on all horizontal surfaces

PACKAGING INFORMATION
- 5-gallon units
- Activator ½ gallon Jug (.45 gallons of material)
- Packaged 6 jugs per box
For CIM 500, thin-set and tile, pedestal paver systems, decorative aggregate.
CIM 500 is UV stable for 180 days.
Typically, CIM 500 can be placed in service within 24-48 hours. Contact C.I.M. Industries for specific recommendations.
Surface should be at least 50°F (10°C) and must be 5°F (3°C) above the dew point. CIM 500 should be at least 50°F (10°C) when mixed and applied. CIM 500 may be preheated to facilitate application at low temperatures, but working time will be reduced.
