Application Details
_______________________________________________________________________________
Substrate Preparation All surfaces must be clean, free of dust, grease, oil and all
loosely adhering particles. Cement laitance must be removed and
the surfaces to be treated must be mechanically roughened.
Concrete must be at least 3-4 weeks old. Metal surfaces (steel
and iron) should be free from rust, oil, grease and any previous
surface coating.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Mixing Mix components A+B together for at least one minute with a
slow speed electric drill (max. 250 R.P.M.).Then add aggregate
(component C) and continue mixing for approx. 3 minutes until a
homogeneous, flowable mixture is achieved.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Application When grouting under bearing plates, ensure sufficient pressure to
maintain movement of the grout. Air must be allowed to escape.
For large volumes, apply in more than one layer, ensuring that
the previous layers have hardened and cooled.

_______________________________________________________________________________
Cleaning Clean all equipment and tools immediately after use. Hardened
material can only be removed mechanically.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Curing Protect the poured grout from direct sunshine for at least 24
hours.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Remarks -- Maximum thickness per horizontal layer: 5-6 cm
-- Minimum substrate temperature: 5°C
-- Maximum substrate temperature 35°-40°C during
application
-- Base plate and substrate should be shaded from direct
sunlight while pouring epoxy grout.
