How to use

Surface Preparation

The surface shall be cleaned thoroughly of all contaminants
like dust, traces of curing compound, oil and grease. Light
mechanical high pressure water jet
may be used to clean the surface of all the contaminants
depending on the degree of contamination on the surface
to be coated. All surface imperfections and protrusions
shall be removed and repaired.

Application

It is highly recommended to apply a priming coat prior
to the application of the Polycoat RBE coating on the
substrate. The primer can be applied to damp or
freshly cast concrete surfaces.For highly demanding situations, it
is recommended to apply in multiple coats. On vertical areas, it is recommended
to apply the coating in multiple layers. 

Finishing

Polycoat RBE coating should be protected from getting
damaged. Coating laid on horizontal surfaces can be
protected either by a cement sand screed (50mm thick) or
by an asphaltic protection board (Bituboard)*.
Bituboard can be fixed on the membrane by a double sided
bitumen adhesive tape
