      How to Use

      Surface Preparation

      Ensure that all surfaces that are to be treated are
      sound and free from oil, grease, cement laitance
      and loosely adhering particles. If required light
      mechanical grinding or wire brushing is
      recommended.

      Application

      All surfaces are to be primed with POLYPRIME WB
      prior to the application of POLYCOAT FBR, as this
      will assist brushing and rolling of the heavier
      bodied product and will ensure a more readily
      achieved even coverage. The primer can be
      applied by brush, roller or squeegee

      Finishing

      Thoroughly mix the contents of the drum so that
      the fibres are uniformly dispersed in the coating.
      POLYCOAT FBR can be applied by brush or trowel.
      Application of 2 coats will give a total Dry Film Thickness of 1mm. The second coat
      should be applied only after the first coat has dried completely.
      The coating shall be protected with BITUBOARD protection boards.
