- Surface Preparation:
The surface to be coated must be well primed. Remove dust, laitance, grease, oils, dirt, impregnating agents, foreign matter, any previous coatings, and disintegrated substances by mechanical means such as shot-blasting (BLASTRAC) or any other approved method to obtain an ICRI-CSP 3-4 profile. The compressive strength of the concrete must be at least 25 MPa (3625 lbs/in2) after 28 days and the tensile strength at least 1.5 MPa (218 lbs/in2). Concrete must be dry before application of coating. Concrete moisture testing is strongly recommended via calcium chloride (ASTM F1869) or in situ probe (ASTM F2170) testing. Results for the calcium chloride test should be below 3 pounds per 1000 square feet over a 24-hour period or below 75% for the relative internal concrete humidity.
- Application:
Primer coat: ECTR
Apply the coating using a rubber squeegee and pass a roller to obtain a uniform coating. Apply evenly and avoid creating excess pools of material.
Finish coat: UCTR-4950
Apply the finish coat of UCTR-4950 at a rate of 500 sq. ft. /gallon using a 3/8’’ (10mm) nap roller. Spread the material evenly with V-shaped cross passes. Apply evenly and avoid creating excess pools of material. Excess material could cause the floor to blister, especially in high humidity.- Restrictions
- Do not apply at temperatures below 10°C / 50°F or above 30°C / 86°F.
- The relative humidity of the surrounding work environment during the application of the coating and throughout the curing process should not exceed 85%.
- Substrate temperature must be 3°C (5.5°F) above dew point measured.
- Humidity content of substrate must be <4% when coating is applied.
- Do not apply on porous surfaces where a transfer of humidity may occur during the application.
- The application of this coating on an interior or exterior substrate without a moisture barrier is at risk of detachment (by hydrostatic pressure).
- Protect the coating from all sources of moisture for a period of 48 hours.
