Surface Preparation and Application

Surface Preparation

• All surfaces to be coated must be cleaned of foreign matter such as dust, oil and dirt.
• The surface must be free of weak and loose particles.
• Surface defects such as pits, cracks and fractures should be repaired with repair mortar.
• To ensure good adhesion, absorbent and dusting surfaces should be saturated with water and primed with a suitable primer.

Application Method

• Before use, the product is mixed for a few minutes with a low-speed mixer.
• Apply the first coat to the surface by brush, roller or spray, working in one direction.
• Once the first coat has cured, the second coat is applied perpendicular to the direction of the first coat.

Coverage

Consumption may vary depending on the porosity of the surface. A total of 1,5-2 kg/m² of material, applied in two coats, is recommended.

Precautions

• Not suitable for waterproofing areas exposed to pressurized water or ponding.
• Reinforcement must be used at details with a risk of cracking, such as floor-wall junctions.
• After application, it must be protected against punctures, scratches and impacts.
• After sufficient curing (3-4 days), it should be covered with tiles, ceramics, plaster or screed.
• Avoid application in very hot, humid and windy weather.
