Substrate

The substrate must be dry, stable and also free of dust, grease, loose particles, etc.

Priming

Absorbent surfaces e.g. concrete and cement screeds are primed with the acrylic primer UNI-PRIMER. Product application follows once the primer has completely dried (after approx 2 h)

Smooth or non-absorbent surfaces should be primed with SUPERGRUND adhesion promoter. Product application folows once the primer has completely dried, approx. 1-2 hlater). Primer consumption: 100-200 g/m2.

Application

FLOWCRET 1-10 EXPRESS is gradually added to water under continuous stirring, until a homogeneous, lump-free, low-viscosity mass is formed. The mixture is left for about 2-3 minutes to settle and is then stirred again for 1 more minute. A low speed electric mixer is recommended for mixing. The mortar is poured onto the primed substrate is one layer and is spread to the desired thickness with a large metal trowel, squeegee, etc. As soon as the product has self-levelled it must be rolled immediately with a suitable spiked roller to release all  the air entrapped within its mass. Following the completion of its application and after the required drying time has elapsed. FLOWCRET 1-10 EXPRESS should be covered or adequetely protected with a floor overlay (tiles, plastic flooring, resin coating, varnish, etc) For greater layer thickness, up to 30 mm, it is recommended to use FLOWCRET 3-30 EXPRESS.

  • During the application and initial setting/hardening of FLOWCRET 1-10 EXPRESS, the surface must be protected form quick water loss hue to the high temperature, UV radiation or wind.
  • Expansion joints should be placed at every 25 m2, in a maximum of 5×5 m grid layout.
  • Do not add cement, gypsum, lime or other binders to the FLOWCRET 1-10 EXPRESS mix.
  • Prior to installation of parquet or vinyl tiles, it is necessary to measure the moisture content with a moisture meter.
  • Temperature during application should be at least +5ºC.
  • Mixture that has started to harden should not be used.
  • Due to cement content, FLOWCRET 1-10 EXPRESS reacts with water forming alkaline solutions, thus is classified as irritant.
