Surface Preparation
-
Suitable methods are sanding or grinding. Any surfaces that have been contaminated with oils may also require chemical cleaning.
-
Use an industrial vacuum that picks up even small dust particles. The floor must be cleaned of all dusts and residues before starting to prime. Otherwise you will have various particles trapped within the coat and adhesion will be significantly weakened. The less micro-dust on the surface the less primer you will need.
-
For thin cracks it may be necessary to slice them with a cutter before filling in order to improve the anchoring of the grout.
Primer - Staroxy 103 MOT
-
Mix Part A and Part B of Staroxy 103 MOT with Electric Stirrer. Once parts A & B have been thoroughly mixed, the product may be thinned to aid application.
-
Apply the primer coat by brush and then roll the centre with a short nap roller.
-
Allow a drying time of at least 4 hours before applying basecoat. If you intend to install epoxy corner coving, this should be done before commencing the next step.
