Coverage

• A 5kg pack yields 4.25 litres of mortar, sufficient for 0.42m² @ 10mm thick (10kg pack pro rata)

Surface Preparation

• The substrate shall be sound, clean and free from laitance, dust, oil, grease and other contaminants
• Smooth substrates should be roughened by mechanical means to form a ‘key’ in order to optimise adhesion
• Scabbling, grit blasting, high pressure water jetting or needle gunning are satisfactory forms of preparation
• Any corroded re-enforcing steel shall be abraded or grit blasted to remove all scale, rust, etc
• If application of the 202 Vertical Surface Repair Mortar is to be delayed, then a coat of 404 Epoxy Metal Primer should be applied as an anti-corrosive holding primer for prepared steelwork

Priming:

• Mix and apply a coat of 405 Tack Primer in accordance with the product data sheet instructions

Mixing:

• Pour the contents of the curing agent container into the base container and mix thoroughly by spatula or low speed drill/stirrer
• The mixed resins shall be poured into a forced action mixing vessel, (Creteangle bucket or similar), and the filler added steadily whilst the mixer is in motion
• Mix for 2-3 minutes until a uniform material is achieved

Mixing Ratio:

• By Volume = 2.1 Base : 1 Curing Agent
• By Weight = 100 Base : 42 Curing Agent

Application

• Whilst the 405 Tack Primer remains in a ‘tacky’ condition, i.e. within 90 minutes of application, apply the 202 Vertical Surface Repair Mortar by wood float, ensuring good compaction
• Close and finish with a steel float
• Where a roughened profile is required, finish with a plastic float
• 202 Vertical Surface Repair Mortar may also be placed by gloved hand for comparatively inaccessible applications
• Chequer board application is recommended for larger areas of rendering
• Application thickness of up to 50mm per layer may be achieved
• If additional layers are required, scratch finish the first layer and then re-prime the following day prior to subsequent applications

Cleaning

• Clean equipment with 109 Tool Cleaner prior to curing of the mortar

Curing

• 202 Vertical Surface Repair Mortar will have cured sufficiently after 24 hours @ 20°C to be put back into most kinds of service
• 7 days cure @ 20°C will be required to ensure optimum mechanical properties and full chemical resistance

Limitations

• Do not apply to wet or uncured concrete surfaces
• Do not apply at temperatures of 3°C or less

Storage & Shelf Life

• Store in dry conditions at temperatures between 10°C and 25°C
• Avoid low temperature storage prior to use of the material
• Do not expose to freezing conditions
