Application steps

MIXING

Important considerations on mixing:
 

  • Excessive amounts of booster
    Excessive amounts of booster will affect the performance negatively and may lead to softness and stickiness in the final cured product. Follow the mixing ratio precisely as described in Application Information.
     
  • Application below application temperature
    Using the product at temperatures lower than specified in the Application Information will not reduce the curing time of the final product to less than 24 hours.
     
  • Insufficient amounts of booster
    Insufficient amounts of booster will increase the curing time of the final product. Follow the mixing ratio precisely as described in Application Information.
     
 

Mixing procedure

Note: Sikafloor®-3000 Snapbooster is added to Sikafloor®-3000 or Sikafloor®-3000 FX on site as part of the mixing process.

The A and B parts of Sikafloor®-3000 or Sikafloor®-3000 FX must be completely mixed as described in the respective Product Data sheet.

  1. Before adding the Product, mix the resins for approximately 40 seconds.
  2. Gradually add Sikafloor®-3000 Snapbooster to the mixture.
  3. Mix for a further 2 minutes until a uniform mix is achieved.
  4. To ensure thorough mixing, pour materials into another container and mix for an additional minute to achieve a smooth and uniform mix.
