Strictly follow installation procedures as defined in method statements, application manuals and working instructions which must always be adjusted to the actual site conditions.
Before application, confirm substrate moisture content, relative air humidity, dew point, substrate, air and product temperatures. If moisture content > 4 % (parts by weight), Sikafloor® EpoCem® may be applied as a Temporary Moisture Barrier (T.M.B.) system.
Primer
Pour mixed Sikafloor®-150 onto the prepared substrate and apply by brush, roller or squeegee then back roller in two directions at right angles to each other. Ensure a continuous, pore free coat covers the substrate. If necessary, apply two priming coats.
Confirm primer waiting /overcoating time has been achieved before applying subsequent products. Refer to individual primer Product Data Sheet.
Levelling mortar
Apply the levelling mortar by squeegee/trowel to the required thickness.
Bonding bridge
Pour mixed Sikafloor®-150 onto the prepared substrate and apply by brush, roller or squeegee. For epoxy screed, back roller in two directions at right angles to each other. Ensure a continuous, pore free coat covers the substrate. If necessary, apply two priming coats.
Epoxy screed / repair mortar
Apply the repair or screed mortar onto the “tacky” bonding bridge. For the screed, use levelling battens and screed rails as necessary. After a short waiting time, compact and smoothen the mortar with a trowel. For the screed, a teflon coated power float (~20–90 rpm) is recommended.
