SUBSTRATE QUALITY
TREATMENT OF JOINTS AND CRACKS
IMPORTANT
Incorrect treatment of cracks
The incorrect assessment and treatment of cracks may lead to a reduced service life and reflective cracking.
Construction joints and existing static surface cracks in substrate require pre-treating before full layer application. Use Sikadur® or Sikafloor® resins.
SUBSTRATE CONDITION
Cementitious substrates (concrete / screed) must be structurally sound and of sufficient compressive strength (minimum 25 N/mm2) with a minimum tensile strength of 1.5 N/mm2.
Substrates must be clean, dry and free of all contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, coatings, laitance, surface treatments and loose friable material.
Substrates must be free from rising moisture.
Primer for substrates<4% moisture (pbw) to be Sikafloor 160.
Primer for substrates <6% moisture (pbw) to be Sikafloor 161.
MIXING
TEXTURED ROLLER COATING
- Mix Part A (resin) for ~10 seconds with a single paddle mixer (300–400 rpm).
- Gradually add the required amount of Sika® Extender T (refer to Consumption) and mix until homogenous.
- Add Part B (hardener) to Part A.
- Switch to an electric double paddle mixer (300–400 rpm, > 700 W) and mix for 2minutes.
- IMPORTANT Do not mix excessivley. .
- To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into another container and mix again to achieve a smooth and uniform mix.
- During the final mixing stage, scrape down the sides and bottom of the mixing container with a flat or straight edge trowel at least once to ensure complete mixing.
2-PART + AGGREGATE MIXING PROCEDURE
- Mix Part A (resin) for ~10 seconds with an electric double paddle mixer (300–400 rpm, > 700 W).
- Add Part B (hardener) to Part A.
- While mixing Parts A + B, gradually add the required filler or aggregates.
- IMPORTANT Do not mix excessivley. Mix for a further 2 minutes until a uniform mix is achieved.
- To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into another container and mix again to achieve a smooth and uniform mix.
- During the final mixing stage, scrape down the sides and bottom of the mixing container with a flat or straight edge trowel at least once to ensure complete mixing.
2-PART MIXING PROCEDURE
- Mix Part A (resin) until the coloured pigment is dispersed and a uniform colour is achieved.
- Add Part B (hardener) to Part A.
- IMPORTANT Do not mix excessively. Mix Part A + B continuously for ~3 minutes until a uniformly coloured mix is achieved.
- To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into another container and mix again to achieve a smooth and uniform mix.
- During the final mixing stage, scrape down the sides and bottom of the mixing container with a flat or straight edge trowel at least once to ensure complete mixing.
APPLICATION
IMPORTANT
Temporary heating
If temporary heating is required, do not use gas, oil, paraffin or other fossil fuel heaters. These produce large quantities of both carbon dioxide and water vapour, which may adversely affect the finish.
- For heating, use only electric powered warm air blower systems.
IMPORTANT
Performing pre-trials
Pre-trials/mock-up applications must be performed and procedures agreed with all parties before full project application.
Indentations
Under certain conditions, underfloor heating or high ambient temperatures combined with high point loading may lead to indentations in the resin.
