Consumption

Consumption

This figure is theoretical and does not include for any additional material required due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level and wastage, etc.
Application steps

MIXING

Sikafloor® ProSeal-90 is supplied ready for use. Stir thoroughly before use for a minimum of 2 minutes using a low speed electric stirrer (~300 rpm).

APPLICATION

For fresh concrete, apply immediately after finishing techniques have been completed. Apply in a continuous even film by low-pressure spray unit. The suitability of spraying equipment must be confirmed by trials. Application is also possible by brush or roller. To achieve the highest visual aesthetics and performance, a second coat is recommended. Wait for the first coat to dry tack free before applying a second coat.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

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

 

CLEANING

To maintain the appearance of the floor after application, Sikafloor® ProSeal-90 must have all spillages removed immediately and must be regularly cleaned using rotary brushes, mechanical scrubbers, scrubber dryers, high pressure washers, wash and vacuum techniques, etc., using suitable detergents and waxes.
