SUBSTRATE QUALITY
Cementitious substrates (concrete) must be structurally sound and of sufficient compressive strength (minimum 25 N/mm2) with a minimum tensile strength of 1,5 N/mm2.
Cementitious substrates and steel surfaces must be clean, dry and free of all contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, existing coatings and surface treatments, etc.
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
Cementitious substrates
Must be prepared mechanically using suitable abrasive blast/water jetting cleaning equipment to remove cement laitance and achieve an open textured surface profile suitable for the product thickness.
Weak cementitious substrates must be removed and surface defects such as blow holes and voids must be fully exposed.
Priming, repairs to the substrate, filling of cracks, blowholes/voids and surface levelling must be carried out using appropriate products from the Sikafloor®, Sikadur® and Sikagard® range of materials. Products must be cured before applying Sikalastic®-8850.
Steel surfaces
Must be prepared mechanically using suitable abrasive blast/water jetting cleaning equipment to to the requirements of the proposed manufacturer's corrosion protection system.
All dust, loose and friable material must be completely removed from all surfaces before application of the product, preferably by vacuum extraction equipment.
After preparation, apply a non-solvent based protective coating i.e. SikaCor® 146 DW.
MIXING
Dose and mix with a suitable air driven or electrical plural component heated spray equipment.
Both components must be heated up to the temperatures: Comp. A ( ISO): +60 °C, Comp. B (Resin): +80 °C.
The accuracy of mixing and dosage must be controlled regularly with the equipment. Thoroughly stir part B (Resin) using a drum stirrer until a consistent colour is obtained.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools with Thinner C immediately after use. The application equipment has to be cleaned and filled with Mesamoll. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.
