Application steps

MIXING

When mixing manually add the dry powder (25 kg) into a container with the clean water.

Mix thoroughly for a minimum of 3 minutes until a uniform mix is achieved. Use an electric stirrer (< 500 rpm).

APPLICATION

Pump

Use a conventional floor screed dual-stage mixer and pump and control the water dosage to achieve the required flow. After placing onto the primed surface apply by trowel or pin screed rake to the required thickness. Use spike roller to thoroughly roll in two directions to remove any entrapped air.

Manual

Pour the mixed material onto the primed surface and apply by trowel or pin screed rake to the required thickness. Use spike roller to thoroughly roll in two directions to remove any entrapped air.

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened / cured material can only be mechanically removed.
