As a guide: 1 kg of Sikafloor® P 1240/50 will cover 4 - 6 m²
Calculated usage assumes constant application thickness on a regular substrate. These figures are theoretical and do not include for any additional material required due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level and wastage etc.

In new construction, concrete to receive high performance epoxy screeds should be designed, mixed and placed in accordance with internationally accepted good practice. The concrete should be at least 28 old unless water reducing admixtures have been used. Sufficient compressive and tensile strength to withstand dynamic loading is required. Laitance or concrete contaminated with oils, greases etc. should be completely removed by captive blasting or mechanical means such as scabbing. Finally ensure the surface is dust free, using an industrial vacuum.

Mixing should be carried out using a slow speed drill, with a suitable paddle, making sure to reach the bottom and sides of the mixing vessel. Mix for at least 1- 2 minutes until uniform consistency is achieved. The components are pre-weighed and should not be split or divided.

Sikafloor® P 1240/50 should be worked well into the substrate be brush or roller. Apply according to stated coverage. The Sikafloor® P 1240/50 should be allowed to stand for 20 minutes before applying the chosen epoxy screed, to check for absorption. If the surface becomes matt, showing absorption, reprime the surface. The chosen epoxy screed should be installed whilst the primed surface is still tacky.
If the primer hardens re-prime within 24 hours.

Remove Sikafloor® P 1240/50 from tools and equipment using a suitable thinner (Xylene / MEK / Acetone) immediately after application. Once hardened, the material can only be removed mechanically.
