APPLICATION
Methods of Application: By spraying, rolling or brushing.
Tools Needed: CHEM-CRETE SOFIX CCC100 can be applied using one or more of the following:
- Low pressure or airless sprayer.
- Paint roller or paint brush.
- Bristle broom.
Surface Preparation: Surface must be clean, and free of paint, sealer, oil, adhesive, curing compound, form release agent and/or anything that will not allow CHEM-CRETE SOFIX CCC100 to penetrate into the substrate. Areas which require cleaning must be cleaned by scrubbing, pressure washing or other methods to remove any surface dust, dirt or other contaminants. CHEM-CRETE SOFIX CCC100 may be applied to damp surfaces as long as no standing water or puddles are present. Heavy contaminated areas must be cleaned using CHEM-CRETE CONCLEAN CCC060 biodegradable concrete cleaner and a pressure washer to help remove deeply penetrated areas.
If application surface is a concrete floor which will receive a resilient flooring, then the guidelines published in current ASTM F710 should be followed by the applicator.
Coverage: Two coats, approximately 200 ft2 per gallon per coat (4.91 m2 per liter per coat) of CHEM-CRETE SOFIX CCC700. Coverage depends on the porosity of the concrete.
Limitations: Do not apply CHEM-CRETE SOFIX CCC100 in the following cases:
- When temperature falls below 40ºF (5°C)
- To areas previously treated with curing or sealing agents unless these coating have been removed by chemical or mechanical means.
- Do not use or allow it to come into contact with aluminum or glass. Crystallization will occur on surface. If contact occurs, immediately wash off with water.
Cleaning: Clean all equipment, tools with fresh clean water immediately after use.
STORAGE
