Application Details
Substrate preparation Substrate must be sound, free from dust, loose particles, cement laitance, curing compounds, oil, grease or any other contamination. Metal surfaces (steel and iron) should be free from scale, rust, oil and grease. Pre-wet substrate to a saturated surface dry condition (SSD) prior to application. Avoid puddles and standing water. Pour 4.0 - 4.5 lt. of clean, cold water into the mixing container. Add the SikaRep powder slowly while mixing continuously for at least 3 minutes and until a homogeneous consistency is achieved. Use low speed electric mixers (max. 500 rpm). By adding the powder slowly and in portions, the desired application consistency can be obtained. A bonding agent, such as Sika MonoTop-610 or SikaTop Armatec 110 EpoCem is highly recommended. Apply SikaRep while the bonding agent is still wet. The mortar can be applied by spatula or trowel. For any thickness greater than 30 mm, SikaRep must be applied in several layers. As soon as the mortar has started to set it can be smoothed by wooden or synthetic float, styrofoam block or sponge. For a very fine surface finish, Sika MonoTop 620 / 625 can be applied over the SikaRep. Where ambient conditions may lead to rapid surface drying, the use of light water fogging for 48 hrs or application of a suitable water based curing compound (Sika Antisol E) is recommended. Do not commence fogging until final set has been reached. Application and mixing tools should be cleaned with water while the material is still fresh. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically. SikaRep should not be used at temperatures below 5C. At ambient temperatures above 35C, the material should be stored in the shade and chilled water should be used for mixing. SikaRep may be overcoated with Sikagard ElastoColor W, Sikagard-680 S, Sikagard-550 W Elastic and all SikaRep and MonoTop products.
