APPLICATION

Sika® Antisol® AC is supplied ready to use and should not be diluted. Stir thoroughly before use.

Sika® Antisol® AC should be applied at the specific coverage to achieve a thin and even film. Application should proceed immediately after the desired concrete surface finish has been attained, ensuring all surface bleed water has disappeared before hand.

Sika® Antisol® AC is best applied by spray, but may also be applied by brush, roller or broom.

Sika® Antisol® AC performs best when one full coat is continually applied until uniform film is achieved.
