Important Considerations:

- Protect freshly applied coating from damp, condensation, and water for at least 24 hours.
- Ensure proper substrate preparation and crack treatment.
- For exact colour matching, use the same batch numbers.
Application Instructions:
Substrate Quality / Pre-treatment: Concrete must be sound (min. 25 N/mm² compressive strength, 1.5 N/mm² pull off), clean, dry, and free of contaminants. Prepare mechanically to achieve an open textured surface. Prime as needed (Sikafloor 161 for < 6% moisture, Sikafloor EpoCem for higher moisture).
Mixing: Stir Part A, add Part B, and mix for 3 minutes. Add pigment and mix for another 2 minutes until uniform. Avoid overmixing.
Application: Apply primer if required. Apply Sikafloor-264 as a coating by roller or as a self-smoothing layer/seal coat by squeegee and back-rolling. Ensure even coverage. Clean tools immediately with Thinner C.
Cleaning of Equipment: Clean all tools with Thinner C immediately after use. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.
Recommended Preparation Method
Preparation is the key to achieving a long-lasting floor-coating system
Diamond grinding is recommended method of preparing new & old substrates prior to applying Sikafloor 264 20 kg Kit
The purpose behind concrete grinding is to remove any flaking paint and other types of contamination to achieve a clean surface as well as remove any sealer or curing agent and open concrete pores allowing 1st coat of Sikafloor 264 to penetrate deep into the surface and seal the floor.
Acid Etching might be used as an alternative option to prepare the floor for more information on how to acid etch your floor click here to be directed to an external blog. Hydrochloric acid can be purchased from pool shops or local hardware stores.

Notes
- Please use the table above as a guide only, as the consumption could depend on the application method/style and porosity of the surface.
- Applying additional coats to the floors subject to heavy traffic is recommended
- Thin down the first coat by adding 5%- 7% of general-purpose thinners
- A slip-resistance surface covering can be achieved by adding anti-slip media

Colour Accuracy Disclaimer: We have taken care to display the most accurate visuals of our products. However, we are not responsible for the colour accuracy of the device you are viewing our swatches on. These variations arise due to different computer monitors and devices (make, model and technology, as well as resolution, contrast and brightness control settings) in much the same way a scan will differ from an original image and a colour photocopy. Furthermore, coatings can exhibit variation in perceived colour depending on gloss level and application method. If you require a very specific colour match, please make your selection via actual swatches and colour boards available at our showroom.
Product Disclaimer: Ensure you read all product, technical and safety data sheets prior to application as liability falls on the applicator. All products must be applied in accordance with manufacturer’s recommended method.
