- Preparation
- Subfloor preparation is highly important with products of this nature.
- The surface should be free of oil and grease. Weak material or laitance should be removed prior to application of the product. Highly polished surfaces e.g. powerfloated concrete, marble and terrazzo tiles should be mechanically textured.
- The floor should then be either vacuumed or swept clean. Sound, stable floor construction is essential.
- Priming
- Priming is not usually necessary on the majority of substrates.
- Particularly porous substrates should be primed with CS930 Epoxy Dustproofer.
- Concrete must have a moisture content of less than 4% water or a residual relative humidity of less than 75 %.
- If in doubt contact Customer Services for details on the full range of TREMCO damp proof membrane systems available.
- Mixing
Mix the two liquid components of the CS900 using a slow speed drill and stirrer attachment, spatula or other square edged implement. Mix full kits only - do not attempt to split packs.
IMPORTANT: Mixed sealer should not be left in the tin as exothermic action will produce flash set in 10 to 15 minutes.- Application
- Apply by brush or medium pile fluff-free roller, paying particular attention to edge and joint details.
- One to two coats are typical, depending on the requirements of the application. If in doubt, always specify two coats.
- Allow CS900 to cure for at least 24 hours before allowing full traffic. The floor should be left for 3-5 days in order to achieve full chemical and traffic resistance.
- The minimum application temperature is 5°C although please note that curing times will be significantly extended. Under certain drying conditions below 10°C there is a risk of blooming.
- Cleaning
Immediately after use all tools and equipment should be cleaned with water. Cured material can be removed mechanically or by acid etching.
- Cure Time
- Foot Traffic: After overnight cure at 15°C or above
- Full Traffic: 24 - 48 hours depending on temperature.
- Full Cure: Full cure & water resistance over 7 days at minimum & constant 15°C.
- Water not to lie on the surface for at least 7 days. Avoid washing for 7 days.
- Coverage
- 25 m2 per 6 kg unit
