TruGard® Waterproof Membrane Roll
TruGard® Vapor-Shield System
A fully bonded, watertight system for showers, tubs, and steam showers. Unlike traditional shower pan liners, the Vapor-Shield membrane is applied directly over the sloped mortar bed, preventing moisture buildup and mold growth.
Why Choose TruGard®?
✅ Leak-Proof Design: Overlapping layers ensure long-term water protection.
✅ Redundant Fail-Safes: Inside/outside corner seals, perimeter sealant, and a reinforced floor-to-wall intersection.
✅ Fast & Easy Installation: Reduces labor time compared to traditional methods.
Once installed, your shower is protected against water damage, mold, and mildew—ensuring a low-maintenance, long-lasting waterproofing solution.
Easy Installation Guide
1. Clean & Cut
- Clean all surfaces thoroughly.
- Cut the waterproofing membrane to fit, allowing for a 2-inch overlap between sections.
2. Apply Mortar & Press
- Spread modified thin-set mortar using a V-notched trowel.
- Firmly press the membrane into the mortar for secure adhesion.
3. Seal Seams & Corners
- Use TruSeal Sealant or thin-set mortar to bond overlapping sections.
- Apply TruGard® Seals Kit to inside and outside corners for extra protection.
4. Pipe & Valve Seals
- Install pipe and valve seals from the TruGard® Seals Kit around all penetrations.
5. Complete the Installation
- Once the mortar sets, your shower is fully waterproofed.
- Apply thin-set mortar over the membrane before tiling.
