- Features
- KÖSTER TS transparent is a mechanically very resistant, easy to clean surface sealant for concrete or for KÖSTER coatings such as KÖSTER EM-VS with broadcast.
- KÖSTER TS transparent distinguishes itself through high chemical, mechanical, and ultraviolet resistance. Due to its fast curing time the surface can be opened for traffic after 24 hours.
- Chemical resistant
- Transparent
- U.V. resistant
- Good mechanical resistance
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Fields of Application
- This product can be used to seal and paint floor and wall surfaces made of concrete, cementitious screeds, and plasters in indoor areas such as shops, garages, etc.
- Exterior use is only allowed in conjunction with the KÖSTER BTG System.
- In the BTG System a maximum consumption of 200 - 300 g / m² is applied to the substrate and immediately broadcast to rejection with KÖSTER Color Chips (consumption approximately 300 g / m²).
- This cured layer is subsequently coated with KÖSTER TS transparent (consumption 0.15 - 0.2 kg / m²).
- For further details please see the technical system specifications for the KÖSTER BTG System.
- Substrate
- The substrate must be dry, free of loose particles as well as free of oil and grease.
- Dust and other bond inhibiting substances must be completely removed.
- Application
- Both A and B components must be brought to a temperature between + 15 °C and + 25 °C before application.
- The components are mixed thoroughly at least 3 min with a mechanical stirring device (below 400 rpm) until a homogeneous consistency is reached.
- To avoid defects due to insufficient mixing, repot the material and mix it again.
- Special care is to be taken that material sticking to the sides of the mixing vessel is mixed in.
- After defining the dew point the components are mixed.
- The surface and room temperature must be at least + 3 °C above the dew point during and for 24 hours after application.
- Application is done with a squeegee or trowel in two layers.
- Consumption per layer is 1.3 kg / m². A second layer must be applied within 24 hours of the first.
- After the material has been emptied onto the substrate, it can be smoothed with a squeegee.
- Immediately after smoothing the material should be deaerated with a spiked roller rolled in two directions 90° to another.
- Spiked shoes must be worn during application while walking over the fresh material.
- Consumption
- Approx. 0.1 - 0.2 g / m.
- Consumption may vary depending on the roughness of the surface.
- Cleaning
Clean tools immediately after use with KÖSTER Universal Cleaner.
- Other
- Changes in temperature may change the viscosity and the curing time.
- Therefore: adhere strictly to instructions in the Technical Datasheet.
- Process coatings only at constant or falling temperatures.
- Low temperatures extent, high temperatures shorten the pot life and curing. Distance to dew point has to be 3°C during processing and curing.
- Protect coatings against moisture during the curing time.
- Coverage
0.1kg/m - 0.2kg/m depending on the situation.
