Application steps

MIXING

SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® can be mixed with a low speed (< 250 rpm) electric drill mixer.
Shake components A and B thoroughly before opening. Pour liquid components A and B into a suitable mixing vessel and mix for 30 seconds. While still mixing components A and B slowly add powder component C. Mix the three components together for a minimum 3 minutes, minimising addition of air. Leave to stand for 5–10 minutes until mixed coating material exhibits a brushable, weakly dripping consistency.
DO NOT ADD WATER

APPLICATION

As reinforcement corrosion protection:
Apply first layer approx. 0.5 - 1 mm thick, using medium hard brush or spray gun to the cleaned reinforcement. Apply 2nd layer when the first coat is hard to the fingernail (~2 - 3 hours at +20°C). Apply subsequent repair mortars wet on dry (so not to wipe off the protection layer).
 

As a bonding primer:
Apply using medium hard brush or spray gun to prepared substrate. To achieve good bond, SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® must be applied well into the substrate, filling all pores (minimum layer thickness 0.5 mm). Apply subsequent repair mortars wet on wet Freshly applied SikaTop® Armatec®-110 EpoCem® must be protected against contamination and rain until application of the repair mortar.

CURING TREATMENT

Protect the fresh mortar from rain while the material has not yet set.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened material can only be mechanically removed.
