Preparation
New Concrete Floors:
New concrete must be clean, sound, dry, fully cured and surface laitance removed by vacuum enclosed shot blasting or mechanical grinding, a minimum strength of 25N/mm² is required.
Existing Concrete Floors:
Remove all dirt, oil, grease, old paint or any other surface contaminants by vacuum enclosed shot blasting, scarifying or mechanical grinding. Fats, oils or greases must be removed by mechanical means and detergent washing and make sure all residue of detergent is washed and removed by rinsing with clean water. Local repairs should be carried out using Resupatch.
Existing Floors ( previously coated )
All previous coatings and loose floor paints must be removed by mechanical preparation as described in the above section and primed as specified. if the old resin flooring cannot be removed, then please consult with our technical team for advice on intercoat adhesion and suitability, as it may not be compatible with existing floor coating.
Priming
Open and porous substrates will require priming with Resuprime NT on dry substrates only with less than 75% ERH reading.
Where the Relative Humidity of a substrate exceeds 75% ERH Resuprime MVT should be specified and selected on the basis of hygrometer readings in accordance with BS 8203:2017. The number of coats to be applied is chosen in accordance with the following table.
ERH % | Required Coating Thickness |
---|---|
75-85 | 1 coat of Resuprime MVT at 200 microns per coat |
85-92 | 2 coats of Resuprime MVT at 200 microns per coat |
92-97 | 3 coats of Resuprime MVT at 200 microns per coat |
For Further information please refer to recommended individual product data sheets.
Application
The ambient temperatures of the areas should not be allowed to fall below 15°C throughout the application and the curing period, as this could have an adverse effect on the appearance and colour of the system. Surface temperature must be above 10°C. Where possible it is recommended that the application area is heated to a minimum temperature of 15°C ideally to allow the ambient and substrate temperature to stabilise prior to installation.
Mixing:
Pre-mix the coloured component (base) to a uniform colour, then mix the entire contents of base with the hardener. If a separate mixing bucket is being used ensure all contents of both components are removed from the buckets supplied. Mix using a slow speed electric mixer for approximately one to two minutes until the two components have fully combined then add the aggregate slowly. Mix for a further 1-2 minutes until the aggregate has fully combined and there are no lumps. The mixed unit should be applied immediately.
Resuflor SL X should be worked with a trowel or float to achieve an even smooth finish. This is best achieved by the application of smooth even pressure with the compound poured over the correct coverage rate after fixing the stop ends to control the flow of the material. Then roll the area with a spiked roller to achieve an even smooth surface and remove entrapped air. Do not re-roll the area later than 10-15 mins.
The surface should be protected from temperatures of less than 10°C and moisture in the early stages of cure. This could adversely affect the flow, levelling and surface finish of Resuflor SL X.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Resuflor SL X should be cleaned with a regular industrial cleaning regime, after specified full chemical cure time limit, with a floor scrubber utilising R.S. Industrial Floor Cleaner or similar with dirty water being removed. Isolated localised cleaning can be carried out using R.S. Tyre Mark Remover, R.S. Fats, Oils & Grease Remover & R.S. Oil Remover.
All surfaces should be thoroughly rinsed with clean water after the use of chemical cleaners.
