Consumption /Dosage 0.15 – 0.25 kg / m2 (2-Component priming coat)
_______________________________________________________________________________
Substrate Quality Concrete substrates must be sound and of sufficient compressive
strength (minimum 21 N/mm2) with a minimum pull-out strength
of 1.5 N/mm2.The substrate must be clean, dry and free of all
contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, coatings and surface
treatments, etc.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Substrate Preparation --Concrete substrates must be prepared mechanically using
abrasive blast cleaning or scarifying equipment to remove
cement laitance and achieve an open textured surface.
-- All dust, loose and friable material must be completely
removed from all surfaces before application of the
product, preferably by brush and/or vacuum.
-- Weak concrete must be removed and surface defects such
as blowholes and voids must be fully exposed.
-- High spots must be removed by e.g. grinding.

Application Instructions
_______________________________________________________________________________
Mixing Time Prior to mixing, stir part A mechanically, when all of part B has
been added to part A, mix continuously for 3 minutes until a
uniform mix has been achieved.
When parts A and B have been mixed, add the quartz sand and if
required the Extender T and mix for a further 2 minutes until a
uniform mix has been achieved.
To ensure thorough mixing pour materials into another container
and mix again to achieve a consistent mix.
Over mixing must be avoided to minimize air entrainment.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Mixing Tools Chemfloor 141 must be thoroughly mixed using a low speed
electric stirrer (300 – 400 rpm) or other suitable equipment.
_______________________________________________________________________________
Application Method Prior to application, confirm substrate moisture content, r.h.
/ Tools and dew point.
Primer:
Make sure that a continuous, pore free coat covers the substrate.
If necessary, apply two priming coats. Apply Chemfloor 141 by
brush, roller or seqeegee.
