Spraying pressure should be between 140 and 170 bar.

Spray equipment fine temperature adjustments could be helpful to obtain equal output pressures of the 2 parts. Higher temperatures provide lower viscosity & lower pressure.

Ambient Air Temperature

+5 °C min. / +40 °C max.

Relative Air Humidity

≤ 85 % max

Dew Point

Beware of condensation. The substrate and uncured applied membrane must be at least +3 °C above dew point.

Substrate Temperature

+5 °C min. / +50 °C max.

Substrate Moisture Content

≤4 % parts by weight. The following test methods can be used: Sika®-Tramex meter, CM-measurement or Oven-dry-method. No rising moisture according to ASTM (Polyethylene sheet).

Tack Free Time

~10 minutes

 

Waiting Time / Overcoating

Before applying Sikalastic®-833 R ALU on Sikalastic®-833 R ALU allow:

Important: When a textured finish is required, the spraying must be carried out within 5 minutes after application of the main layer.

Substrate Temperature

Minimum waiting time

Maximum waiting time

+10 °C

~10 minutes

4 hours

+20 °C

~10 minutes

3 hours

+30 °C

~10 minutes

2 hours

+45 °C

~10 minutes

1 hour

  • Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions particularly temperature and relative humidity.

  • If the maximum waiting time / overcoating time is exceeded, Sika® Concrete Primer must be applied at consumption rate of 100 g/m2 as an adhesion promoter between the layers.

  • As an alternative, the membrane surface will need to provide a mechanical bond. This can be achieved by lightly abrading with mechanical abrasive equipment to remove all the surface sheen.

  • Select the abrasive grit size and intensity of abrading depending on the condition of the membrane.

  • Completely remove all the dust by industrial vacuuming equipment.

  • The final prepared surface must not have any sheen residue present.

Application steps

EQUIPMENT

Mixing and spraying

  • Drum stirrer

  • Air driven or electrical 2-Component heated spray equipment

Contact Sika Technical Services for local equipment suppliers.

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

Refer to the Sika Method Statement: Sikalastic®-833 R ALU Suitable substrates Concrete, bituminous felts and coatings, metal, brick masonry, asbestos cement, ceramic tiles. General All contamination such as dust, loose and friable material that could affect final finish or reduce adhesion, must be completely removed from all surfaces before application of the product or subsequent products, preferably by industrial vacuuming equipment.

MIXING

Refer to the Sika Method Statement: Sikalastic®-833 R ALU

APPLICATION

Strictly follow installation procedures as defined in method statements, application manuals and working instructions which must always be adjusted to the actual site conditions.

Important: During application, check layer thickness and curing speed.

Note:If a non-smooth surface is required, Sikalastic®-833 R ALU can be over-sprayed to achieve a textured finish. Refer to the Sika Method Statement: Sikalastic®-833 R ALU

CLEANING OF TOOLS

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