Application instructions
Surface Preparation
Concrete should be mechanically sound and free from contamination, such as free water, Mould, oil or grease, laitance and dust. Grit blasting is recommended. Sections to be bonded should be checked for good alignment. A ‘dry run’ before the first application of the adhesive is recommended to ensure correct timing.
Mixing:
The base and hardener into a suitable container shall be emptied and mix with a paddle and slow speed heavy duty
drill, ensuring the sides are scraped down. A uniform grey color should be obtained after mixing thoroughly.
Application:
The mixed adhesive is applied to both surfaces to be bonded with a serrated trowel or other suitable spreader.
The joint should be closed immediately, if this is not achieved the surface of the adhesive should be slightly scratched
immediately prior to closing the joint to expose fresh adhesive. The joint must be closed within the open time of the adhesive. On site monitoring of the operation using lapped asbestos cement panels is recommended.
Cleaning of Application Equipment:
Tools and equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with Nitoflor Sol.
