Application steps

MIXING

Prior to mixing, stir part A mechanically. When all of part B has been added to part A, mix continuously for 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 minimise air entrainment.
Mixing Tools
Sikafloor®-3000 FX must be thoroughly mixed using a low speed electric stirrer (300–400 rpm) or other suitable equipment.

APPLICATION

Prior to application, confirm substrate moisture content, relative humidity and dew point. Sikafloor®-3000 FX is poured and spread evenly by means of a serrated trowel or pin rake and finished with a flat trowel, spatula or similar. Once Sikafloor®-3000 FX is “tack-free” apply the seal coat.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean all tools and application equipment with Thinner C immediately after use. Hardened and/or cured material can only be removed mechanically.
