Application steps


SUBSTRATE QUALITY


Mortar and concrete must be older than 28 days (depends on minimal requirement of strengths). Verify the substrate strength (concrete, masonry, natural stone). The substrate surface (all types) must be clean, dry or mat damp (no standing water) and free from contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, existing surface treatments and coatings etc.. Steel substrates must be de-rusted similar to Sa 2.5. The substrate must be sound and all loose particles must be removed.

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION


Concrete, mortar, stone, bricks: Substrates must be sound, dry or mat damp (no standing water), clean and free from laitance, ice, standing water, grease, oils, old surface treatments or coatings and all loose or friable particles must be removed to achieve a laitance and contaminant free, open textured surface. Steel: Must be cleaned and prepared thoroughly to an acceptable quality i.e. by blast cleaning and vacuum. Avoid dew point conditions.
