SC 100

Substrate preparation:

The application surface must be clean and solid, without cracks, free of dust, laitance, form release agents, oil, paint and rust. In applications where we have constant water infiltration from exterior (negative pressure) seal all the leakages with the cement based fast setting waterproofing product SC FAST. Always saturate the substrate with water and remove any excess in order that the substrate will be saturated, but the surface will be free of standing water.

Preparation of the mix:

Mix the content of the 25kg paper bag with 7 – 8 liters of clean and fresh water with electric stirrer at low speed for 3 - 5 minutes until a perfectly smooth and homogeneous mix free of lumps is obtained. Under normal conditions the mix should be applied within 45 - 60 minutes. Low temperatures extend the life of the mortar while, on the contrary, high temperatures drastically reduces pot life and workability.

Application of the mix:

Application should be made in two or more layers with a total thickness of at least 2 mm. Apply a first layer with a flat brush or roller on the properly prepared surface. Apply the second coat when the first one has hardened enough. In any case the application should overlap the entire surface with a uniform thickness coat. In all critical areas, such as a floor joint with walls and vertical construction elements, the sealing zone must be reinforced using a suitable fiberglass mesh. After application, SC 100 should be left to cure in a relatively humid environment. Protect the fresh mortar from rain, frost and fast drying by suitable means.

Recommendations:

• Apply only upon structurally stable and well-prepared substrate
• Avoid application under direct sun exposure or/and strong wind
• Do not add cement, gypsum, lime or other materials that might affect the properties of the mortar
• Do not apply upon PVC and bitumen membranes and in general materials which polymerize in the long ran
• Do not apply in ambient temperatures less than +8°C and higher than +35°C
• Protect the application surface from rain or frost the first 24 hours
• Do not apply in swimming pools without covering with tiles or appropriate coatings
• Bonding tiles should be done with cement based adhesives categorized as C2
• For incorporating fiberglass mesh the thickness of the first layer must be 1mm
• Do not exceed the maximum thickness per layer
• Do not apply in total thickness less than 2 mm
• It is recommended that the application be made by a professional

Cleaning:

Due to the increased adhesion of SC 100 it is recommended to clean tools before the material starts to set. Once the material has dried, cleaning can be done only by mechanical means.
