Pot Life
Sikalastic®-624 WP is designed for fast curing. High temperatures combined with high air humidity will increase the curing process. Thus, material inopened containers should be applied immediately. In opened containers, the material will form a film after 1 hour approx. ( at 75 °F (24 °C) and 50 % R.H.)
Cure Time
| Ambient conditions | Minimum waiting time overcoating |
| +40 °F / 50 % r.h. | 14 hours |
| +50 °F / 50 % r.h. | 6 hours |
| +70 °F / 50 % r.h. | 5 hours |
*After 7 days the surface must be cleaned and primed with Sika® Reactivation Primer before continuing.
Note: Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions particularly temperature and relative humidity.
Applied Product Ready for Use
| Ambient conditions | Rain resistant | Touch dry | Full cure |
| +40 °F / 50 % r.h. | 10 min. | 12 hours | 24 hours |
| +50 °F / 50 % r.h. | 10 min. | 6 hours | 18–24 hours |
| +70 °F / 50 % r.h. | 10 min. | 4 hours | 12–18 hours |
Note: Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions particularly temperature and relative humidity.
Coverage
| Sika Reemat | Sika Fleece |
| 53 sf/gal - 30 mils wet film thickness | 15sf/gal - 105 mils wet film thickness |
| 40 sf/gal - 40 mils wet film thickness | 19 sf/gal - 85 mils wet film thickness |
| 35 sf/gal - 45 mils wet film thickness | 23 sf/gal - 70 mils wet film thickness |
NOTE: Coverage rates are optimal - coverage rates will vary depending on temperature, surface roughness and porosity, and application technique.
MIXING
No mixing necessary
APPLICATION
Sika Reemat - Base Resin
Apply Sikalastic®-624 WP resin to the primed substrate surface by means of 1/2” (12.7 mm) nap phenolic resin core roller or brush at the specified application rate to achieve a uniform and consistent wet mil thickness (reference separate System Data Sheet). Material can also be squeegee or spray applied, in which case it should also be backrolled. Apply Sika Reemat into the wet embedment resin and roll the scrim to achieve full saturation and embedment. Reemat shall be torn/cut to conform to substrate transitions and flashing conditions, with a typical 2” (50.8 mm) reinforcement overlap. Resin shall saturate the Reemat from below. Apply additional Sikalastic®-624 WP resin as required to ensure full scrim embedment. Allow to cure completely before applying subsequent resin layers.
Sika Reemat - Intermediate and Top Resin
Apply Sikalastic®-624 WP resin to the cured Sikalastic® Reemat base layer by means of 1/2” (12.7 mm) nap phenolic resin core roller or brush at the specified application rate to achieve a uniform and consistent wet mil thickness (reference separate System Data Sheet). Material can also be squeegee or spray applied, in which case it should also be backrolled. Allow to cure completely before applying subsequent resin layer, if specified.
Sika Fleece
Apply Sikalastic®-624 WP resin to the primed substrate surface by means of 1/2” (12.7 mm) nap phenolic resin core roller or brush to achieve a uniform and consistent thickness, applying approximately 2/3 of the resin required to achieve the specified application rate (reference separate System Data Sheet). Apply Sika Fleece into the wet embedment resin and roll the fleece to achieve partial saturation and full embedment. Fleece shall be cut to conform to substrate transitions and flashing conditions, with typical 3” (76.2 mm) side and 6” (152.4 mm) end reinforcement overlaps. Resin shall saturate the Fleece from below. Apply remaining 1/3 of the specified resin quantity to ensure full fleece saturation and an even resin application.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean all tools and application equipment with appropriate solvent immediately after use. Hardened and/or cured material can only be removed mechanically
