Surface Preparation
The substrate must be firm, able to bear sufficient
loads and have adequate grip. It must be free of
grease, oil and non-adherent components. It must also
be free of any layers or contaminants that could
reduce the adhesion.
Remove non-adherent layers and contaminants by
suitable mechanical means (e.g. shot blasting, milling
or sanding). Then remove all dust using an industrial
vacuum cleaner. Larger repairs and the filling of gaps,
holes and other unevenness must be carried out with
SpECbuild repair materials.
Priming
Highly porous substrate needs to be primed with
SpECtop Primer F1, SpECtop Primer FX or SpECtop
Scratch Coat binder at O.1 to 0.2 L/m2 rate.
Application
Stir base thoroughly. Add hardener and mix for at least
1 minute with an electrical mixer (speed 300 – 400
rpm). Add the filler and mix again for 2 minutes. Pour
the mixture onto the surface and distribute using a
smoothing trowel.
SpECtop Scratch Coat is supplied as a three
product component weighing 15 litre units.
