Substrate preparation

Concrete, mortar, brickwork: sound, clean, free oil, grease, dust or laitance; as even as possible. Steel Iron: Clean, free of oil, grease or rust. Absorbent substances have to be thoroughly watered and must be mat wet prior to application of first coat of Eco Top Seal.

Mixing

Pour half of component A (liquid) into mixing vessel. Add all component B (powder) and

mix until you have slurry of uniform consistency. Add rest of component A and mix again until you have uniform, lump-free mixture. Mechanical slow speed mixer is recommended.

Mixing time 2-3 minutes. If Eco Top Seal is to be applied by trowel, use only 90% of component A (liquid).

Coating

By Brush: On vertical surface use suitable brush with synthetic bristle. On horizontal

surface use rubber slide or push-broom.

By trowel: For first coat use tooth trowel with 3mm teeth, for second coat use normal trowel.

Application

Always apply a minimum of 2 coats, the first coat on the still damp (pre-wetted) substrate.

The second coat is to be applied after the first coat has already started to set and can support the following coat, usually after 2-6 hours, depending on climate. Finish off by brushing with dry sponge when setting of 2nd coat has started.

Curing As with all cement based products, curing is important. Protect the freshly applied product against direct sunlight and strong winds. Use damp hessian or PE sheet to aid curing. Protect the applied Eco Top Seal from rain and water splashes until fully hardened. (+6 hours).

Cleaning Clean tools with water before adhered materials has hardened. Hardened EcoTop Seal can only be mechanically removed.
