Polyfix Trading is an authorized dealer of Dr. Fixit (Pidilite) waterproofing products in Hyderabad and Secunderabad, stocking the full range including Raincoat exterior wall coatings, Roofseal terrace waterproofing, Bathseal for wet areas, Crack X crack-filling paste, and Pidifin two-component roof coatings. Each product is built for a different part of the building — the right choice depends on whether you're waterproofing a terrace, an exterior wall, a bathroom, or repairing a crack.
If you've searched for Dr. Fixit products online, you've probably run into a long list of names — Raincoat, Roofseal, Bathseal, Pidiproof, Pidifin, Crack X — without a clear sense of which one actually applies to your problem. That confusion is understandable: Dr. Fixit, part of Pidilite's construction chemicals portfolio, makes dedicated products for different surfaces and failure points around a building, rather than one universal "waterproofing liquid" that does everything.
This guide breaks the range down in plain English: what each core product is for, how to tell them apart, and where to buy genuine stock in Hyderabad and Secunderabad.

Is Polyfix Trading an Authorized Dr. Fixit Dealer?
Yes. Polyfix Trading is an authorized dealer of leading construction chemical brands, including Dr. Fixit, Fosroc, Zydex, UltraTech, and Bondtuf Chemicals. The company operates from New Bowenpally, Main Road, Opposite Delhi Mithai Bhandar, Secunderabad, Hyderabad – 500011, Telangana, and stocks the Dr. Fixit range directly for contractors, builders, and homeowners across Hyderabad and Secunderabad.
Buying through an authorized dealer matters for a category like waterproofing chemicals, where product performance depends on using genuine formulations rather than mislabeled or diluted stock. An authorized dealer relationship also means access to the full range — including specific variants of a product line, like the difference between Raincoat Neo and Raincoat Classic — rather than a limited, inconsistent selection.
The Dr. Fixit Range at a Glance
Before comparing specific products, it helps to see how the range is organized by where each product is actually used on a building:
| Product Line | Where It's Used | Core Job |
|---|---|---|
| Raincoat (Neo, Star, Classic, WPC) | Exterior walls | Waterproof coating + decorative paint finish |
| Roofseal (Classic, Select, Ultra) | Roofs, terraces, exposed concrete | Thick, flexible waterproof membrane |
| Bathseal Select | Bathrooms, kitchens, balconies | Waterproofing under tiled wet areas |
| Crack X Paste | Walls and ceilings, internal & external | Filling hairline and minor structural cracks |
| Pidifin 2K | Roofs, wet areas, water tanks | Two-component cementitious waterproof coating |
What Is Dr. Fixit Raincoat Used For?
Dr. Fixit Raincoat is a range of elastomeric waterproof coatings designed for exterior walls. Rather than being a waterproofing layer applied under a separate paint finish, Raincoat is formulated to serve both roles at once — a "2-in-1 paint + waterproofing solution," as it's positioned within the range.
Raincoat Neo, for example, is supplied in 30kg packaging, forms a coating up to 110 microns dry film thickness, offers 100% elongation, and can bridge cracks up to 0.5mm, with coverage of roughly 5–6 sq.m per 20kg bag at 3mm thickness. This combination of crack-bridging ability and UV resistance is what makes Raincoat suited to exterior walls specifically, where a building faces continuous sun and rain exposure rather than standing water.
The Raincoat line also includes Star, Classic, and WPC variants, which sit at different price and performance points within the same exterior wall waterproofing category — useful if you're comparing options based on budget rather than a single fixed formulation.
Is Dr. Fixit Roofseal Good for Terraces?
Yes — Roofseal is specifically positioned for roofs, terraces, and exposed concrete surfaces, which is a different exposure category from a vertical exterior wall. Terraces deal with standing water, direct sun, and foot traffic in a way exterior walls generally don't, and Roofseal's formulation is built around that.
Roofseal Ultra, the top variant in the range, forms a thick, flexible, and seamless waterproof membrane with high crack-bridging capability, supplied in 20-litre packaging with coverage of approximately 7.1–7.6 sq.ft per litre. It's suitable for both new construction and repair work, and is designed to be applied as part of a reinforced waterproofing system for demanding, large roof areas.
The range also includes Roofseal Classic and Roofseal Select, positioned as more standard options for terraces that don't require Ultra's heavy-duty specification — again, a matter of matching the product tier to the scale and condition of the roof rather than assuming one variant fits every terrace.
Raincoat vs. Roofseal: What's the Actual Difference?
This is one of the most common points of confusion, since both are described as "waterproof coatings." The real distinction is surface orientation and exposure:
- Raincoat is built for vertical exterior walls — it needs to double as a decorative paint finish and resist UV exposure on a surface that sheds water rather than holding it.
- Roofseal is built for horizontal roofs and terraces — it needs to form a thicker, more robust membrane capable of handling standing water, ponding, and foot traffic.
Using a wall-grade coating on a terrace, or a roof-grade membrane on an exterior wall, isn't simply a matter of "more or less waterproofing" — it's a mismatch between the product's intended exposure conditions and the surface's actual demands.
Where Do Bathseal, Crack X, and Pidifin Fit In?
Beyond the exterior wall and roof categories, three more products cover specific problem areas:
Bathseal Select addresses internal wet areas — bathrooms, kitchens, and balconies — where the concern is water penetrating beneath tiles rather than weather exposure. It's supplied in 1-litre packaging, with coverage of roughly 8–9 sq.ft per litre for a primer coat plus two undiluted coats to reach 500–600 microns thickness. It offers flexibility and crack-bridging ability, bonds to a variety of substrates including clean metal drains, PVC, and ABS drain assemblies, and is formulated to be non-toxic — relevant given its use in enclosed indoor spaces.
Crack X Paste is a ready-to-use crack repair compound rather than a full coating. It's designed to fill cracks up to 5mm in width on internal and external walls, with coverage of roughly 25–30 running metres per kg at a depth and width of 5mm. It's typically used as a preparatory step — sealing hairline and minor structural cracks before a wall is painted or waterproofed with a product like Raincoat.
Pidifin 2K is a two-component acrylic cementitious waterproof coating, positioned for roofs up to 2,500 sq.ft, wet areas (bathrooms, kitchens, balconies, chajjas), and water tanks. Supplied in 20kg packaging, it achieves roughly 6–7 sq.ft per kg coverage across two undiluted coats to reach 1000 microns thickness. Because it's a two-component system, it's generally chosen where a denser, cementitious membrane is preferred over an elastomeric coating — for example, on water tanks where the coating needs to hold up under sustained water contact.
The broader range also includes Pidiproof, Dr. Fixit's integral waterproofing compound line, which is mixed directly into concrete or mortar during construction rather than applied as a surface coating afterward — a different approach from Raincoat, Roofseal, Bathseal, and Pidifin, which are all post-construction applied coatings.
How to Choose the Right Dr. Fixit Product
A simple way to work through the decision is to start with the surface, not the product name:
- Is it an exterior wall? Look at the Raincoat range (Neo, Star, Classic, or WPC, depending on budget and finish requirements).
- Is it a roof or terrace? Look at the Roofseal range (Classic, Select, or Ultra, depending on the scale and demands of the roof).
- Is it a bathroom, kitchen, or balcony wet area under tiles? Bathseal Select is the relevant option.
- Is there a visible crack that needs sealing before painting or waterproofing? Crack X Paste is the preparatory step.
- Do you need a two-component cementitious membrane for a roof, wet area, or water tank? Pidifin 2K fits this role.
- Is the waterproofing being built into new concrete or mortar during construction, rather than applied afterward? Pidiproof is the relevant category.
How Do I Identify a Genuine Dr. Fixit Product?
Because waterproofing performance depends on using the correct, genuine formulation, buying through an authorized dealer is the most reliable safeguard — it ensures the product hasn't been diluted, relabeled, or substituted. Beyond dealer authenticity, genuine Dr. Fixit products are sold under Pidilite's official product names and packaging (as listed above), with clear product identification, weight/volume, and color specified on the pack. If you're ever unsure whether a specific pack or batch is genuine, your authorized dealer should be able to confirm sourcing directly.
