Application steps
MIXING
Pour the water in the recommended proportion into a suitable mixing container. While stirring slowly, add the powder to the water. Mix with low speed (< 500 rpm) hand drill mixer to avoid entraining too much air. Mix thoroughly at least for 3 minutes until homogenous with no lumps. Mix only full bags for best results.
APPLICATION
Stand the grout for ~1-2 minutes; stir with a trowel and then pour into the prepared openings. When carrying out baseplate grouting, ensure sufficient head of pressure is maintaned to keep mortar flow uninterrupted. Make sure necessary formwork is firmly in place and watertight.For more information on pouring techniques refer to Sika Method Statement
CURING TREATMENT
Protect the fresh material from premature drying using an appropriate curing method e.g. curing compound, moist geotextile membrane etc.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use. Hardened mortar can only be mechanically removed.
