Application Steps
MIXING- Wet down all tools and mixer to be used.
- Pour the required amount of clean, potable water [approximately 70o F (21o C)] into a suitably sized and clean mixing container, using a calibrated measuring jug or similar, to ensure strict controlof the water content. Do not over-water.
- Add 1 bag while continuing to mix with a low-speed drill (400 - 600 rpm) and mortar mixing paddle, or in an appropriate morter mixer.
- Once all the powder has been added, mix to a uniform consistency, maximum 3 minutes, until a lump-free blend is achieved.
- Thorough mixing and proper proportioning of the powder and liquide is necessary.
- To help control setting times, colder water may be used in hot weather and warmer water may be used in cold weather.
- Inaccurate proportioning of the powder to liquid will result in a finished product that may not conform to the typical published performance property values.
- With water or undiluted SikaLatex® R: Pour 4.5 pints (2.1 L) of liquidinto the mixing container. Slowly add powder, mix and adjust as above. Add up to another 1/2 pint (0.24 L) maximum of liquid to achieve desired consistency. Do not over-water.
- With diluted SikaLatex® R: SikaLatex® R admixture may be diluted up to 5:1 (water: SikaLatex® R) for projects requiring minimal polymer modification. Pour 4.5 pints (2.1 L) of the mixture into the mixing container. Slowly add powder, mix and adjust as above.
EXTENSION WITH AGGREGATES
- For applications greater than 1" (25 mm) in depth, add 3/8" (10 mm) coarse aggregate.
- The typical addition rate is 25 lbs (11.4 kg) of aggregate per bag. It is approximately 2 gallons (7.6 L) by loose volume of aggregate.
- The aggregate must be non-reactive (reference ASTM C 1260, C 227 and C 289), clean, well graded, Saturated Surface Dry (SSD), have low absorption and high density, and comply with ASTM C 33 size number 8 per Table 2.
- Variances in aggregate may result in different strengths.
- Do not use limestone aggregate.
- Do not exceed a slump of 7" (178 mm). This may cause excessive bleeding and retardation and may reduce the strength and performance of the material.
APPLICATION- A neat mix of SikaQuick®-1000 / SikaQuick®-1000 LD mortar must be scrubbed into the mechanically prepared, SSD substrate. Be sure to fill all pores and voids.
- Force material against edge of repair, working toward center. After filling repair, screed off excess.
- Allow material to set to desired stiffness, then finish with wood or sponge float for a smooth finish, or broom or burlap-drag for a rough finish.
- If a smoother finish is desired, a magnesium float should be used.
- To assist in the finishing process, use SikaFilm® finishing aid. Consult current Product Data Sheet.
- Mixing, placing, and finishing should not exceed 30 minutes maximum.
- Refer to ACI 305, the "Guide to Hot Weather Concreting" or ACI 306, the "Guide to Cold Weather Concreting" when there is a need to place this product while either hot or cold temperatures prevail. Thinner placements will be more sensitive to the temperature conditions.
CURING TREATMENT- As per ACI recommendations for portland cement concrete, moist curing is required.
- Moist cure with wet burlap and polyethylene, a fine mist of water or with a water based,* compatible curing compound meeting ASTM C 309.
- Curing compounds adversely affect the adhesion of following lifts of mortar, leveling mortar or protective coatings.
- Moist curing should commence immediately after finishing.
- Protect freshly applied mortar from direct sunlight, wind, rain and frost.
- To prevent from freezing, cover with insulating material (e.g. curing blanket).
* Pretesting of curing compound is recommended.
