IMPORTANT
Strictly follow installation procedures
Strictly follow installation procedures as defined in Method Statements, application manuals and working instructions which must always be adjusted to the actual site conditions.
IMPORTANT
Protect from moisture
After application, protect the Product from damp, condensation and direct water contact for at least 24 hours.
IMPORTANT
Ventilation in confined spaces
Always ensure good ventilation when applying the Product in a confined space.
IMPORTANT
Pin holes caused by application during rising temperature
If the Product is applied on porous substrates during rising temperature, pin holes may form from rising air.
- Apply the Product during falling temperatures.
IMPORTANT
Do not use curing compounds
Applications under extreme conditions (high temperature and low humidity) which can cause fast drying of the product must be avoided as the product does not allow the use of curing compounds.
IMPORTANT
Risk of cracking during curing
Allowing the Product surface to dry excessively and quickly during the curing period will result in surface cracking.
- Protect the freshly applied Product from high ambient temperatures, direct sunlight and draughts.
Overcoating with PMMA
Note: When overlaying with PMMA screeds, the Product surface must be fully broadcast with clean and dry quartz sand.
Moisture barrier
Note: The TMB effect is limited in time without additional preparation. Always verify the surface moisture content if more than 8 days have passed since application.
TEMPORARY MOISTURE BARRIER OR SELF SMOOTHING SCREED
- Pour the mixed Product onto the substrate. For the consumption, refer to Application Information.
- Apply the Product evenly over the surface with a trowel.
-
Back-roll the surface in two directions at right angles with a spike roller.
Note: Maintain a "wet edge" during application to achieve a seamless finish.
CONCRETE PATCH REPAIR MORTAR
- As a bonding primer apply SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® onto the prepared substrate by brush.
- Place the mixed repair mortar onto the bonding primer 'wet on wet' using a gloved hand or trowel without the formation of voids.
- Finish to the required surface texture using trowel or sponge as soon as the repair mortar has started to harden.
