Coverage

• A 5kg pack is sufficient to cover an area of 8.3m² with the recommended two coat treatment, providing a minimum thickness of 500 microns

Surface Preparation

• Concrete surfaces shall be a minimum of 21 days old and/or the residual moisture content shall be below 6%
• Ensure that the concrete is clean and free from dust, laitance, grease, oil, curing compound, and existing paint finishes, etc
• Blow holes and defective concrete shall be made good using 710 MMA Repair Mortar
• Suitable mechanical treatment, such as vacuum grit blasting, is the preferred treatment prior to application as this ensures a mechanical ‘key’ which will optimise adhesion
• Steel surfaces shall be shot blasted or grit blasted to a nominal Sa 2.5 Swedish Standard
• All dust shall be removed prior to coating application. A coat of 707 MMA Metal Primer shall be applied as soon as practicable after blasting, in order to obviate the possible occurrence of ‘flash rusting’

Priming:

• Concrete surfaces shall be primed with a coat of 706 MMA Floor Primer, applied by brush or roller, at a nominal rate of 0.3kg/m²
• Long nap lambswool rollers are recommended for primer application
• Allow primer to cure for a minimum of 40 minutes
• Steel surfaces shall be primed with 707 MMA Metal Primer as soon as practicable after blasting
• Damp concrete surfaces can be primed using 709 MMA Damp Proof Primer – refer to product data sheet for full details

Mixing:

• 701 MMA Floor Coating is supplied as a two pack material consisting of the base component, and the catalyst component, incorporate the catalyst component into the base component under mechanical stirring, and mix for 1-2 minutes

Mixing Ratio:

• (% Catalyst by Weight) = 1.8

Application

• Apply 701 MMA Floor Coating using short nap perlon, or smooth lambswool rollers at a nominal rate of 0.30kg/m²
• Following a minimum of 1 hour apply a second coat at the same nominal rate
• Should a slip resistant or skid resistant finish be required then broadcast 504 Standard Anti Slip Aggregate onto the first coat within 10 minutes of application
• Following a minimum of 1 hour, sweep off excess aggregate and apply a second coat of 701 MMA Floor Coating

Note: 701 MMA Floor Coating may be applied at greater thicknesses should service conditions warrant it.

Cleaning

• Clean equipment with 109 Tool Cleaner prior to the curing of the coating

Curing

• Light Foot Traffic: 1 hour @ 20°C
• Vehicular Traffic: 2 Hours @ 20°C
• Full chemical resistance: 24 hours @ 20°C

Limitations

• Do not apply to wet, uncured or un-primed concrete surfaces

701 MMA Floor Coating will taint food during application, so that all foodstuffs in the immediate vicinity must be removed or properly covered

Storage & Shelf Life

• Store in dry conditions, out of direct sunlight, at temperatures between 10°C and 20°C
• Adequate ventilation of the storage area should be provided
• Keep container tightly closed when not in use
• 701 MMA Floor Coating has a minimum shelf life of 6 months when stored in original, unopened containers in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions
