Recommendations for the use of the waterproofing agent

Apply it at temperatures ranging from +5°C to +30°C. Do not apply it if it is going to rain.

Mind to apply it on a clean concrete base only, with no bleed water and preliminary treatment of the surface with primers and paints. Do not apply it onto immature concrete, wait for 1-2 weeks to make it harden up. You may apply the concrete primer on the foundation that has been previously treated with a hardening agent.

Before applying the agent, make sure that you have all the necessary supplies and tools at hand, such as a microfiber mop, a spray gun and a sanding machine.

Prepare the floor surface before applying the waterproofing agent. For this purpose, remove the loose layer of concrete, seal up all dints and cracks, and treat the base with a sanding machine. The treatment must be at least 1.5 mm deep.

Before applying the hardener, you have to vacuum the concrete surface and wash it up with a liquid detergent (with 7+ pH). Next, mop the surface and leave it to dry up.

Before use, properly shake the container.

Apply an even layer of the agent to the floor surface. Make sure to properly impregnate the surface with the agent. We recommend to use a microfiber mop for the best agent's application. There should be no puddles left. Apply several layers of the concrete primer, but mind to apply the next layer only provided the previous layer is no longer sticky and properly dried-up. We recommend to apply the second layer an hour after the first application, with the third layer applied in two hours after the previous layer's application.

Mind that the corrosion activity of the hardener's composition is pH˃10, so, in order to prevent etching, glass and metal surfaces must be properly protected.

There should be no dry areas left on the treated surface. If necessary, you should keep on moistening the surface within 45 minutes. In an hour after the start of treatment, remove all the agent's remains (if any) from the surface with a soft scraper. If the surface is too porous, treat it once again in 12-15 hours.
