Waiting time to overcoating
Before appling Flooring/Tiling systems wait
| Substrate | Waiting Time |
| Normal absorbent substrates - Concrete | ~10 - 20 min @ 23 °C Per coat |
| Calcium sulphate based substrates, if calciumsulphate based levelling compounds are used | ~10 - 20 min @ 23 °C Per coat |
| Calcium sulphate based substrates, if cement based levelling compounds are used | ~24 hrs @ 23 °C Per coat |
| Timber and chipboards floors | ~2 hrs @ 23 °C Per coat |
| Cement levelling substrate, if cement based levelling compounds are used | ~1 hr @ 23 °C Per coat |
See above Mixing Ratio for dilution and coat recommendations.
All values are approximate and subject to variation due to climatic
conditions. Please refer also to the product datasheets of the
cementitious levelling compounds and tile adhesives.
Consumption
1:3 ~ 7 - 8 m2 per mixed L
Average is depending on absorbency of the substrate, applicator device and mixing ratio.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
MIXING
Mix Sikafloor®-01 Primer at a ratio of 1:3 - 1:2 - 1:1 only with clean cool water.
APPLICATION
Apply diluted
Sikafloor®-01 Primer by way of a soft bristle broom, or long napped roller 10 – 15mm. Correct amount of mixed primer should always be applied to the prepared substrate, giving good penetration and film build. Thin applications may result in pinholing in finished surface or debonding levelling compound from the substrate.
On particularly porous surfaces where the initial prime coat is absorbed immediately, or mechanically
prepared surfaces a second coat is recommended.
Avoid foam during application by adding more liquid.
Apply neat
Sikafloor®-01 Primer over raw timber/chipboard, CFC & scyon with a long napped roller 10 – 15mm.
Note: For best practice it is recommended subsequent construction materials are applied as soon as primer is dry, but no latter than 24hrs.
- Do not allow primer to pool while drying as
this will cause a soft spot under the cement
compound.
- Do not allow dust to settle on the surface.
- If dust has contaminated the surface, first
vacuum clean and apply another coat of primer before
subsequent materials are installed.
CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT
Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use.
