Application steps

MIXING

Mix 25 kg bag with the necessary, above mentioned, amount of cold water, using an electric blender with a suitable mixing spiral, in a clean bucket. Add the SikaRep® SA powder slowly while mixing continuously for at least 3 minutes and until a homogeneous consistency is achieved.

Use a blender at 500 rpm maximum; do not mix at faster rate because of mechanical strength decay of the cured product. The obtained mix results very creamy, easily spreadable and thixotropic.

APPLICATION

Apply SikaRep® SA while the bonding agent is still wet. The mortar can be applied by spatula or trowel. For any thickness more than 30 mm, SikaRep® SA must be applied in several layers.

As soon as the mortar has started to set it can be smoothed by wooden or synthetic float. For fine surface finish SikaRep® Fine SA, Sika Monotop®625 Fine SA can be applied over the SikaRep® SA.

 

CURING TREATMENT

Where ambient conditions may lead to rapid surface drying, the use of light water fogging for 48 hours or application of a suitable water based curing compound like Antisol®-WB is recommended. Do not commence fogging until final set has been reached.

CLEANING OF EQUIPMENT

Application and mixing tools should be cleaned with water while the material is still fresh. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.
