MIXING
SikaEmaco® N 105 can be mixed with a low speed (< 500 rpm) hand drill mixer or using a force action mixer. Pour the recommended water in a suitable, clean mixing container. While stirring slowly, add the powder to the water and mix thoroughly at least for 3 minutes to acheive required homogeneous consistency. The obtained mix should be very creamy, easily spreadable and thixotropic.
Do not add extra water or other ingredients after mixing. Normal tumble type concrete mixers are not suitable. Do not mix more material than can be placed within its pot life.
Note: Always start with minimum recommended quantity of water (water/powder ratio), only if required, gradually add water to desired consistency. Do not exceed maximum allowed limit of water per bag weight.
APPLICATION
SikaEmaco® N 105 can be applied by trowel or spatula. As soon as the mortar has started to set it can be smoothed by wooden or synthetic float, XPS block or sponge.
CURING TREATMENT
Where ambient conditions may lead to rapid surface drying, the use of light water fogging, damp hessian and polythene sheet or application of a suitable water based curing compound from Sika® Antisol range is recommended.
Do not commence fogging until final set has been reached.
CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT
Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened / cured material can only be mechanically removed.
