Application instruction
Surface preparation
The surface must be clean, free from standing water, and free from easily peeling contaminants.
Dust and burrs must be removed using suitable mechanical tools, for example a sandblasting machine.
Steel reinforcement and starter bolts must be cleaned of rust and dust using a wire brush or sandblasting.
Mixing
Before application, Components A and B must be thoroughly mixed at the correct ratio.
Use an electric mixer or a pneumatic mixing paddle at a speed of 300-600 rpm.
The minimum mixing time is 03 minutes; mixing may continue longer until the mixture reaches the required homogeneity and uniform color.
Application
After mixing, use a stiff brush or a short-nap roller to firmly apply the mixture onto the cleaned and prepared old concrete surface.
For damp surfaces, ensure there is no standing water and that the surface is completely covered with BestBond EP752.
Pour the new concrete while the BestBond EP752 layer is still wet and has not yet cured.
Cleaning
Use water and soap to clean tools immediately after use and before the mixture begins to cure.
If the material has cured, tools can only be cleaned using suitable mechanical methods.
Safety
Both components are non-hazardous; however, they may cause skin allergies upon prolonged contact.
Gloves, masks, and safety goggles should be worn during application.
If the product splashes into the eyes or mouth, rinse immediately with water and go to the nearest medical facility for timely treatment.
