SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
- Clean all surfaces. Surface must be sound, clean, dry, frost-free, and free of oil and grease. Curing compound
residues and any other foreign matter must be thoroughly removed. - Substrates must be clean, dry, sound and homogeneous, free from oils, grease, dust and loose or friable particles. Paint, cement laitance and other poorly adhering contaminants must be removed.
- Concrete and/or cement screeds must be ground and thoroughly cleaned with an industrial vacuum.
- Anhydrite screeds, including flowable anhydrite screeds must be ground and thoroughly cleaned with an industrial vacuum shortly before bonding with the adhesive starts.
- For other substrates contact our Technical Service Department for advice and assistance.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment immediately after use with Sika® Remover-208 and/or Sika® TopClean T. Once cured, residual material can only be removed mechanically.
