METHOD OF APPLICATION

Application Details

Substrate preparation
All surfaces must be sound, even, free from dust, loose particles and any contamination. It may be applied to damp but not waterlogged surfaces. Hot and very dry, porous concrete surfaces must be primed by diluting Sika Bitumen with clean water at 1:1 ratio (by weight).

Application

The drums must be stirred well before use. Where a single drum is used for prolonged periods, occasional stirring during application is recommended. If a primer coat is applied, allow it to dry completely before applying subsequent coats. Apply evenly and in one direction using a stiff brush. A two-coat application is recommended to avoid possible gaps in the film.

Cleaning

Clean all equipment and tools with water immediately after use.

Remarks

Do not apply Sika Bitumen to outside area in wet weather or when rain is expected.
