Application Details


Substrate Quality

  • The surface must be sound, of sufficient strength, clean, dry and free of dirt, oil, grease and other contamination
  • The concrete substrate must be sound and of sufficient compressive strength (minimum 25 N/mm²) with a minimum pull off strength of 1.5 N/mm²

 

Substrate Preparation

  • All surfaces to be coated should be thoroughly cleaned by conventional means
  • Inspect the substrate
  • Spalling, flaking or damaged areas should be repaired using compatible materials to match surroundings or replaced as necessary
  • If in doubt apply a test area first
  • Tiles must be prepared mechanically; glazing must be removed
  • Grinding may be necessary to level the surface
  • For detailed information regarding substrate quality / preparation and primer chart please refer to the Product data Sheet



Application Conditions / Limitations


Attribute Information
Substrate Temperature 5°C min. / 30°C max
Ambient Temperature 5°C min. / 30°C max
Substrate Moisture Content < 6% pbw moisture content
 Test method: Sika ® -Tramex meter, < 4% CM
No rising moisture according to ASTM (Polyethylene sheet)
Dew Point Beware of condensation! Surface temperature during application must be at least ≥3 °C above dew point
Consumption

Apply in one to two coats, with a consumption of ~0.15–0.2 kg/m²/coat depending upon surface roughness and absorption

NOTE: These figures are theoretical and can be influenced due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level and wastage etc



Application Instructions


Mixing

  • Part A : Part B = 3.4 : 1 (by volume)

 

Application Method / Tools

  • Prepare Sika Concrete Primer LO by mixing component A until uniform
  • Add the component B into component A container and re-mix until homogeneous
  • Sika Concrete Primer LO can be applied by short-piled roller or brush
  • Allow primer to dry sufficiently (see waiting time / overcoating) before overcoating

 

Potlife

  • Sika Concrete Primer LO is designed for fast curing
  • High temperatures combined with high air humidity will increase the curing process
  • Thus, mixed material in opened containers should be applied immediately
  • In opened containers, the material will form a film after approx. 30 minutes

 

Waiting Time / Overcoating

At 20°C:

  • Minimum waiting time: 30 minutes
  • Apply an additional coat if more than 24 h pass before coating
  • Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions particularly temperature and relative humidity

 

Notes on Application / Limitations

  • Do not apply Sika Concrete Primer LO on substrates with rising moisture
  • Do not use Sika Concrete Primer LO for indoor applications
  • Protect freshly applied Sika Concrete Primer LO from damp, condensation and water for at least 24 hours
  • Do not apply close to the air intake vent of a running air conditioning unit
  • The incorrect assessment and treatment of cracks may lead to a reduced service life and reflective cracking (for further information please contact Sika technical service)
  • If heating is required do not use gas, oil, paraffin or other fossil fuel heaters, these produce large quantities of both CO² and H²O water vapour, which may adversely affect the finish
  • For heating use only electric powered warm air blower systems
  • Allow new concrete to cure/hydrate for a minimum of 10 days prior to application, preferably 28 days
