Method of Use Mixing

Substrate Preparation To ensure proper mixing, a mechanically powered mixer

The Substrate should be sound, clean and free from
contamina#on. Surface laitance should be removed by
scabbling or grit blas#ng.
Steel surfaces should be grit blasted to remove all rust
and scale.
Concrete surfaces should be dry.
or drill Þ$ed with suitable paddle should be used.
The en#re content of the Hardener pack should be added
to the Base pack. Care should be taken to ensure that the
bo$om and the product sides are thoroughly scraped and
used. Mix the two components for 2 minutes. The Þller
should be gradually added while mixing. Mixing should
con#nue for 3 minutes or un#l a uniform consistency
obtained.

Holes drilled for anchor bolts should be thoroughly

cleaned from dust and lose debris using suitable brush or
compressed air.
