Application Information:
Application Instructions:
Substrate Quality: The substrate must be sound, clean, dry, and free from contaminants. For high absorbent, non-sound, contaminated, or non-cement based substrates, precautions and a suitable primer are necessary.
Substrate Preparation:
-
Concrete Substrates: Prepare mechanically to achieve an open textured surface. Remove weak areas and fully expose defects. Remove all dust and friable material. Close voids with suitable Sika pore filling mortar and level roughness with Sika rendering and levelling mortar.
-
Steel Surface: Prepare mechanically using abrasive blast cleaning to SSPC-SP 10 or Sa 2 ½ according to ISO EN 12944-4. Prepare welds and joints according to EN 14879, part 1. Remove all dust and blasting material. Air-conditioning is recommended to maintain surface conditions.
Mixing: Stir Part A mechanically before mixing. Add all of Part B to Part A and mix continuously for 3 minutes until uniform using a low speed electrical stirrer (300–400 rpm) to avoid air entrapment. Pour into a clean container and stir again.
Application: Apply by brush, roller, or airless spray.
Cleaning of Equipment: Clean all tools with Thinner C immediately after use. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.
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.
