Remove laitance by wire brush or sweep blast.
Application Details • Ensure adequate ventilation during application and drying. • Do not apply when humidity exceeds 85% and condensation is likely. • Surface temperature should be 3°C or more above dew point. • Stir the contents thoroughly before and during use, with a broad flat stirrer, using an upward lifting action. Note: Use of Alkyd systems on masonry necessitates extra precautions such as, adequate ventilation and light during and for a length of time after application.
• Airless Spray: Tip Size: 0.22 – 0.30 mm (0.009 – 0.011 in)
Tip Pressure: 90 – 130 kg / cm2 (1300 – 1800 psi) • Conventional Spray: Use normal spray equipment • Brush or Roller: Apply an even coat taking care to avoid rungs and sags. More than one coat will be required.
