SURFACE
PREPARATION: |
| Surface
must be clean and free of any dust, oil, grease,
laitance, curing compounds or any other contaminants.
This should be achieved by sand blasting, water blasting
or some other mechanical means. New concrete surfaces
may be acid etched with muriatic acid and rinsed
thoroughly. The surface must be dry or damp, and must be
free of standing water. |
|
MIXING
AND APPLICATION: |
|
Stir both A
& B components before mixing together. Mix equal volumes
of Part A and Part B. Mix thoroughly with a heavy duty,
low speed drill fitted with a mixing paddle. Mix until a
uniform gray color with no streaks is evident. Be sure
to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing pail. Do
not mix more material than can be used in 40 minutes.
Apply mixed material by trowel, spatula or putty knife.
When used as adhesive, cover both surfaces when possible
and then bring into intimate contact. Remove excess
before curing. When used as a mortar on vertical and
overhead patches, limit depth of patch to 1/2-1" to
prevent sagging. Allow first layer to set before
applying additional material. When used on floors, fill
holes up to 4" deep in one layer. Avoid feather-edging.
For smooth finish, keep tools lightly "wetted" with
mineral spirits. |
