| Application Rate | Curing Efficiency |
|---|---|
| 1L/5m² | >90% |
Drying time is dependent on the temperature but estimated time is 2 hours at 25˚ C.
Apply as 1L/5m² for curing effiency.
Coverage for a single coat application is 100m² per 20 litre drum.
Areas to be treated must be clean, dry, free from sawcutting debris.
After surface finishing the concrete must be free of bleed water and sufficiently set to be firm and able to be walked on without marking or damaging the surface.
Assess the application area so that a fixed volume of mixed material can be applied over a fixed area to determine the correct application rate.
Agitate the material until thoroughly mixed to ensure effective curing properties.
Application is recommended via low pressure spray unit (40psi). Spray at a sufficient rate to achieve consistent coverage in even coats.
