48 ft²/gal  results in 30 ± mils DFT (standard per 1 coat)

24 ft²/gal  results in 60 ± mils DFT

16 ft²/gal  results in 90 ± mils DFT

12 ft²/gal  results in 120 ± mils DFT

Phase 1 (Primer): When required; prime the surface at the rate of 1 gal / 200 - 300 sq.ft. . Apply using a brush or phenolic core roller. This will result in 5 - 7 dry mils  of coating. Priming is optional. Don’t prime over an existing detail coat.

NOTE: For rough or porous concrete or when outgassing is a concern, use Sikalastic® PF Lo-VOC Primer or Sikalastic FTP LoVOC Primer at an approximate rate of 180 - 230 sq.f/1 gal. This rate may vary on the porosity of the substrate. Allow primer to become tack free before proceeding to the next phase.

Phase 2 ( Cracks, Joints, Detailing):

Detail Coat: Apply 30 mils of detail coat Sikagard® 7600 over all joints,transitions, cracks and flashing.Cracks in concrete/asphalt over 1/8” must be filled with Sikagard® 7600. Using Sikagard® 7600 as caulking compound will shorten the curing time over conventional polyurethane caulks.

Reinforced Detail Coat: Apply 15 mils of detail coat Sikagard® 7600  over all joints, cracks and flashing. Cracks in concrete/asphalt over 1/8” must be filled with Sikagard® 7600 . Bridge joints, cracks, and flashings with 3” or 6” FlexiTape Heavy pushing it into the Sikagard® 7600 over all joints, cracks and flashings. Over reinforcement tape, apply 10–15 mils stripe coat of Sikagard® 7600 and taper it onto adjacent surface. Allow the surface to cure for 4–6 hours before the next phase.   

Phase 3 (Coat #1): The first coat of Sikagard® 7600 VG  should be applied at the rate of 48 - 24  sq.f/1 gal.  resulting in 30 - 60 dry mils of membrane . Allow to cure (4-6 hours) before proceeding to Phase 4.

Phase 4 (Coat #2): Apply the second coat of Sikagard® 7600 VG  at the rate of 48 - 24 sq.ft./1gal.  resulting in 30 - 60 dry mils  of membrane.

NOTE: If priming is not required skip Phase 1, and proceed with Phase 2 . Any adhesion test is to be performed 3 days after product application.

Sikagard 7600 VG can be applied over vertical and overhead surface. Apply using a trowel. Please not that potlife for SG 7600 VG is only 20 minutes.

Recoat: At 75 °F (24 °C) and 50 % relative humidity, recoating and multiple or second coats must be completed within 16 hours of previous applications of Sikagard® 7600 VG . After this 16 hour window, it is necessary to abrade, clean and prime surface  prior to recoating.

Reinforcement: please contact Sika Technical Service (polyester scrim is optional).

Removal: Equipment should be immediately cleaned with an environmentally safe solvent, as permitted under local regulations.
