Bostik Black Bitumen Paint for Exterior Waterproofing and Metal Protection

A reliable solvent-based coating for exterior surfaces:

Bostik Bituminous Black Paint is a low-viscosity, solvent-based bitumen solution that forms a durable black film on a wide range of exterior surfaces. Once cured, the coating is odourless and taint-free, and remains flexible enough to cope with fluctuating temperatures over time. Two coats are recommended for full protection.

Suited to metals, roofing, concrete, and timber:

This paint is formulated for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, corrugated iron, fibre cement, concrete, roofing felt, asphalt, and timber. Typical applications include gutters, downpipes, railings, gates, corrugated metal sheeting, non-potable water tanks, shed roofs, and damp-proof foundation walls. It is not suitable for ponds, fishponds, or swimming pools.

Coverage and drying times:

Each litre covers 4 to 6 square metres depending on the porosity of the surface. The paint is touch dry in 6 hours and fully dry in 24 hours, allowing recoating the following day. For best results, avoid application in humid, foggy, or frosty conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What surfaces can this bituminous paint be used on?

This waterproof bituminous paint bonds to ferrous and non-ferrous metals, corrugated iron, fibre cement, concrete, roofing felt, asphalt, and timber. Common applications include gutters, downpipes, railings, gates, shed roofs, corrugated metal sheeting, non-potable water tanks, and damp-proof foundation walls. It is not suitable for ponds, fishponds, or swimming pools. Exterior use only.

How much surface area will a 5 litre tin cover?

Each litre covers 4 to 6 square metres depending on how porous the surface is, so the 5 litre tin yields between 20 and 30 square metres per coat. A minimum of two coats is required for full protection, meaning the tin realistically covers 10 to 15 square metres to a fully sealed finish. Porous surfaces such as bare concrete will absorb more paint and sit at the lower end of that range.

How long does this black bitumen paint take to dry?

The paint is touch dry in 6 hours and fully dry and recoatable in 24 hours, so the second coat can go on the following day. Brush application only - rollers and sprayers are not suitable. Avoid working in humid or foggy weather, or when there is any risk of frost, as these conditions will affect adhesion and drying. Product code 30812219 is the 5 litre size.

Is this bituminous paint safe to use on a tank that holds water?

This paint is suitable for non-potable water tanks once fully cured - the dried film is odourless and taint-free. It must not be used on ponds, fishponds, or swimming pools. This is a solvent-based product with a high VOC content of 395 g/l, so apply only outdoors or in well-ventilated areas. Refer to the safety data sheet before use.
