- Applications
- Basic Uses
- As a 3/16" thick seamless floor topping for areas exposed to aggressive chemicals or areas subjected to high frequency trafficand concentrated loadings.
- To repair or replace acid brick or ceramic tile.
- To patch worn or spalled concrete.
- To repair cracks.
- To fill shallow potholes.
- Application Instructions
- Correct surface preparation is of the utmost importance. All concrete surfaces must be dry, clean and free from dust, oil, grease or any other contaminants. All surfaces must be primed with 710 IM-KOTE™ PRIMER at the rate of 75 to 100 SQFT/ L dependent on the profile. Mix all three components of 724 IM-KOTE™ FLOOR in strict accordance with manufacturer’s instructions, transfer to primed area and rough spread. Trowelling is accomplished with strong, even strokes, compressing material well and squeezing it onto the primed surface to eliminate air voids. Specify application temperature range when ordering.
- New Concrete - Must be fully cured and free of laitance, form release agents, surface hardeners and any other foreign materials. Surface must be cleaned to achieve a profile similar to medium grade sandpaper by one of the following methods: Very light scarification or sandblasting followed by vacuum, acid etch and neutralize (use BDE-1002™ by Specialty Products Group® as per the manufacturer’s instructions followed by a thorough flushing with clean water), litmus testing of the surface should show neutral.
- Old Concrete - All existing coatings must be removed and then the surface prepared as above. All damaged concrete must be removed.
