Test sections are recommended to establish correct coverage. |
| SUBSTRATE QUALITY | Concrete surfaces must be clean and sound. The compressive strength of the concrete substrate should be at least 25 MPa (3625 psi) at 28 days and a minimum of 1.5 MPa (217 psi) in tensile strength, at the time of the application. Substrates must be free of contaminants such as dust, dirt, existing paint films, efflorescence, exudates, laitance, form, hydraulic or fuel oils, brake fluid, grease, fungi, mildew, biological residues or any other contaminants which may prohibit good bond or conditions of the substrate that may reduce the overall performances of Sikafloor®-219 UTE. |
| APPLICATION | As a primer: Apply Sikafloor®-219 UTE as a prime coat onto the substrate using a brush, roller or squeegee, at a uniform coverage without puddling. Wear Coat: Once the prime coat is tack-free, apply the wear coat using a squeegee or roller and backroll to achieve even coverage. Waiting Time / Overcoating: It is important to apply subsequent coats of this and other products within 48 hours (under normal curing conditions). If this coating is allowed to cure longer than the 48 hours before subsequent recoats. Refer to the Waiting Time / Overcoating on page 3 of this document for preparing the surface. |
| CLEAN UP | Clean all tools and equipment with a non-flammable solvent. Once hardened, product can only be removed mechanically. |
