Manufactured in South Africa

Liquid rubber
that actually stops the leak.

Silkhan water-based liquid rubber goes on as a thick liquid and cures into a flexible, seamless, waterproof skin — bonded to your roof, balcony, masonry or concrete. No seams. No torches. No drama.

03

Pure Acrylic Paint

Interior and exterior acrylic paint formulated for South African conditions.

Why liquid rubber

One seamless coat. Eight real advantages.

Concrete and masonry are porous — water creeps in through microcracks, capillaries and joints. Silkhan penetrates surface irregularities, seals the pores and forms an elastic waterproof skin that moves with the building.

1

Seamless membrane

Most leaks start at seams, overlaps, corners and fasteners. A liquid-applied membrane covers all of them without joints.

2

Flexibility & crack bridging

Stays elastic after curing — stretches with the substrate, bridges hairline cracks, handles thermal cycling.

3

Strong adhesion

Bonds to concrete, brick, masonry, wood, metal and most existing coatings. Water can't creep underneath.

4

UV & weather resistant

Built for intense sun, rain, wind and big temperature swings. Reflective finishes also reduce heat absorption.

5

Easy to apply

Brushable, rollable or sprayable. Works on irregular shapes. No open flames, no torching, no specialist crew required.

6

Low odour, low VOC

Water-based formulation — lower VOCs, less smell, lower fire risk. Safer for homes, indoor work and occupied buildings.

7

Handles ponding water

Tolerates standing water far better than ordinary acrylic paints or basic sealers — important on flat roofs and decks.

8

Easy to maintain

If damage occurs, clean the surface and apply another coat directly. No removal of sheets or tiles required.

Honest comparison

Silkhan vs. the traditional methods.

There's no silver bullet in waterproofing — performance depends on membrane thickness, surface preparation, UV exposure and curing conditions. But head-to-head, here's where Silkhan earns its keep.

Traditional method Where it falls short Silkhan advantage
Bitumen sheets Seams can fail Seamless single coating
Cement waterproofing Rigid — cracks with movement Flexible elastic membrane
Tile grout sealing Water still penetrates underneath Full membrane protection
Standard acrylic paint Limited elasticity Better crack resistance
Torch-on membranes Difficult, hot, hazardous install Easier & safer application
