- Application Method
- Application
- 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).
- Mixing:
The products must be conditioned at a temperature between 18 ° C (65 ° F) and 30 ° C (86 ° F). Pour the resin (A) into the hardener (part B) and mix at low speed to obtain a thick paste. Add 4 equal portions of 650ml of water (2.60 L total) and mix well after each addition to ensure a homogeneous mixture. Mix full units only.
- Application:
Apply the product generously with a 20-30 mm long haired roller; roll in both directions for even coverage, avoiding excess thickness. For maximum results the surface will have to remain wet for a period of 30 to 45 minutes by adding more material to the areas where the concrete will appear dry to the eye without ever leaving any extra material.
- 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).
- Surface may discolor in areas exposed to regular ultraviolet light.
