This figure is theoretical and does not include for any additional material required due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level,
wastage, rebound, etc..

Consumption may vary due to the area to be sprayed (overhead or vertical) as well as the thickness of the applied material.

Sikacrete®-103 Gunit AE should be applied by using a suitable type of dry-spray concrete gun and a skilled nozzle man. Spray application can be started when the substrate has been suitably prepared, (wet down thoroughly the concrete surface, this is best done using the spray nozzle). Add the dry gunite mortar straight into the hopper of the concrete gun; the required water is added at the nozzle and adjusted by the operator.

As soon as the final coat has been sprayed, the dry spray mortar can be leveled. Any areas where the coverage is found to be inadequate must be re-sprayed in proper manner. Patches filling with fresh rebound material scraped off the floor are not allowed.

Treat exposed surfaces with Antisol WB curing compound or use other approved curing methods such as polyethylene sheeting or wet hessian. Do not commence fogging until final set has been reached.

Uncured mortar should be removed from tools with water. To clean dry-spray cement guns, simply blow-out with compressed air. Once cured, the mortar can only be removed mechanically.
