Application of SpECtop A100
Surface Preparation:
Before applying SpECtop A100, ensure that the surface is dry and free from any contaminants. The product can be applied when the surface water has evaporated after the final finishing operation. It is important to note that no surface preparation is needed if the concrete does not exhibit a layer of laitance.
Application Methods:
SpECtop A100 may be applied using a brush, spray, or roller. For best results, a continuous coating of uniform thickness should be achieved. A minimum of two coats is recommended to ensure adequate protection and performance.
Trial Area:
It is essential to prepare a small trial area to confirm that the slight darkening caused by the coating is acceptable before proceeding with the full application.
