Application steps

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

The substrate shall be thoroughly clean, sound, free from dust, loose material, surface contamination and materials which reduce bond or prevent suction or wetting by cementitious materials.

▪ De-laminated, weak, damaged and deteriorated substrate shall be removed by suitable means before application.

▪ Rust, scale, dust and other loose and deleterious materials which reduces bond or contributes to corrosion shall be removed.

MIXING

Mix SikaLatex® with the correct amount of water to obtain a bonding emulsion.

Pour part of the solution into a suitable mixing container. Add the cement-sand mixture to the water by stirring slowly and mixing well until a smooth, homogeneous and lump-free mixture is obtained. Additional water can be added during the mixing time to adjust the desired consistency.
