APPLICATION INFORMATION
Mixing Ratio For hand application ~5.5 litre water (22%) per 25 kg bag
For spraying application ~5.0 litre water (20%) per 25 kg bag
Fresh mortar density ~1.80 kg/l
Consumption As Bonding Primer - This depends on the substrate roughness and thick-
ness of layer applied. As a guide, ~1.5 - 2.0 kg of powder per m2 per mm
thick.
As Reinforcement Corrosion Protection - As a guide, ~2.0 kg of powder per
m2 per 1 mm layer thickness
Yield 25 kg of powder yields approximately 14.3 litres
Layer Thickness As bonding primer - sufficient to coat the concrete surface in a thin layer
filling uneveness, pores and pits.
As reinforcement corrosion protection- 2 mm minimum thickness
Ambient Air Temperature +5 °C minimum; +30 °C maximum
Substrate Temperature +5 °C minimum; +30 °C maximum
Pot Life ~90 to 120 minutes at +20 °C
Waiting Time / Overcoating Apply concrete repair wet on wet with bonding primer
Apply concrete repair wet on dry reinforcement corrosion protection
