Surface Preparation: The substrate should be sound, clean, and free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt, curing compound, etc. The substrate must be primed using GRANDBOND ACR, diluted with water (1:1 ratio) and applied at the rate of 5-6 m2 per liter on very porous substrates. If the absorption is found to be high, a second coat of primer may need to be applied. The primer must completely seal the substrate to prevent air release from forming bubbles and pinholes in the surface of GRANDFLOOR SLC35.
Mixing: Pour into a container 5 Lt of water for a 25 Kg bag of GRANDFLOOR SLC35. Add the product to the water gradually with mixing using a low-speed electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle until a uniform, lump-free consistency mix is achieved. Mix a quantity of product that can be applied within 20 minutes only. Do not remix with water if the mixture has already begun to set.
Application: While the mixture is ready and the primer surface is tack-free, pour the mixed product into the surface and spread to the desired thickness using a notched trowel or suitable tools. Protect the floor after leveling the mix from direct sunlight, high winds, or rain. It can be applied for thickness from 5mm up to 30 mm. Immediately after placing the self-leveling material, roll the surface with a spiked roller to help to release any trapped air in the mix. In normal conditions, GRANDFLOOR SLC35 does not require curing. In case of high temperature, it is strongly recommended to cover the casted product with a polythene sheet for 2 days. It is possible to apply flooring material on top of GRANDFLOOR SLC35 (such as ceramic, carpet, etc.) after nearly 3 days from curing the product (depending on the thickness, the supports humidity, and the weather conditions).
