Application Instructions

Substrate Quality

• The concrete substrate must be sound and of sufficient compressive strength (min. 20 N/mm² (MPa) with a minimum pull-off power of 1.5 N/mm² (Mpa)).

Substrate Preparation

Requirements:

• The substrate must be sound, clean, free from oil and grease, old coatings and surface treatments, etc.

Pre-treatment for good bond:

• Concrete, mortar, and stone should be thoroughly prepared by high-pressure water jetting or mechanical means such as grinding, chiselling etc. Cracks must be cleaned to remove dust with compressed air.

Mixing

• Proportion equal amounts by volume of both components into a suitable, clean mixing container. Depending on the volume, mix thoroughly using a large spatula or a slow-speed drill (set at 400 - 600 rpm) with a clean, rust-free, mixing paddle until the two components are evenly blended to a uniform colour (minimum 3 minutes). Use immediately

Limitations

• Do not thin with solvents.
• Freshly applied Sikadur® AP should be protected from dampness, condensation and water for at least 12 hours.
• Concrete should be a minimum of 28 days old.
• Only mix sufficient material that can readily be used within its pot life.
