Preparation
Ensure that the surface of the concrete is clean and free from loose or friable materials. High pressure water jetting or shot blasting should be carried out to remove residues of old coatings or to key smooth surfaces. Concrete should be damp when RonaBond FC for Prison Cells is applied.
Mixing
Mix using a slow speed drill fitted with a suitable paddle attachment or a forced action mixer, never use a free fall mixer. Pour approximately two thirds of the gauging liquid into the mixing vessel and gradually add the powder component. Mix for 2 minutes and add sufficient of the remaining gauging liquid to achieve the desired consistency. Mix for a further 1 minute.
Application
Apply with a steel float to the damp concrete surface. The surface may be given a dry sponge finish.
Curing
Application in strong sunlight or windy conditions should be avoided but the use of a mist spray will prevent over-rapid drying if this is unavoidable.
Working Temperatures
RonaBond FC for Prison Cells can be used in most weather conditions and in a wide temperature range, typically from +3°C to 25°C and above. Note that at high ambient temperatures the working time of the mix will be reduced; it will be increased at lower temperatures. Ideally store materials between 10°C and 20°C before use.
