Application steps

MIXING

SikaTop®-121 can be mixed with a low speed (<250 rpm) hand drill mixer.

Shake Component A (liquid) and pour it into a suitable mixing vessel. While mixing add Component B (powder) into the mix. Mix the two components together for a minimum 3 minutes. DO NOT ADD WATER.

APPLICATION

SikaTop®-121 can be applied manually using traditional techniques. Thoroughly pre-wet the prepared substrate a recommended 2 hours before application. Keep the surface wet and do not allow to dry. Before application remove excess water e.g. with a clean sponge. The surface shall appear a dark matt appearance without glistening and surface pores and pits shall not contain water.

Apply first a scratch coat by firmly scrapping the repair mortar over the substrate surface to form a thin layer and fill any pores or pits in the surface. Ensure the whole surface to be repaired is covered by the scratch coat. Build up layers from bottom to top by pressing mortar well into the repair area.

The surface can be finished according to the requirements using a float while wet or with a relevant rough-cast tool as soon as the mortar has started to stiffen.

CURING TREATMENT

Protect the fresh mortar immediately from premature drying using an appropiate curing method e.g. curing compound, moist geotextile membrane, polythene sheet, etc.

 

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT

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