®
In case Cicomortar FX is required to be applied
in layers thicker than 15 mm, layers should be
either scratched or broadcasted by coarse sand to
achieve good mechanical key in between them.
For anchoring purposes, great care should be
taken to make sure not to trap air inside the
anchor holes.

Limitations
®
Cicomortar FX will not cure adequately below
o
5 C. In cold weather keep the epoxy resin
components in a warm environment prior to use.
Bulk mixing of epoxy resins can lead to self-
heating. Care should be exercised to limit the
conditions whereby overheating may occur.
