Application

Mechanically prepare the concrete by scabbling, grinding or shot blasting to expose the aggregate, then vacuum thoroughly.

Pour onto the primed floor and allow to self-level (working time approx. 25 minutes at 20°C), using an ARDEX Pin Leveller for thicker applications and a spiked roller to finish. Apply at 5°C or above. Seal or resin-coat to protect against oil, salts and water. Internal use only: not for external areas or areas subject to wetting.
