GENERAL
SUNFLOOR METALLIN is permanent concrete hardening, sealing, permeability reducing and dust proofing compound. It is a single component aqueous solution which when applied to concrete surfaces penetrates and reacts with the free lime to convert it into a granite-hard substance, like silica, metallic flourides etc. This process provides a hard, dustproof and strong surface from one that otherwise may start dusting and disintegrating.
USES
Application of SUNFLOOR METALLIN provides protection against mild attack by injurious solutions such as acid splashing or oil penetration, and any surface oil from concrete floors can be easily removed. Water penetration and absorption are slightly reduced.
INSTRUCTION TO USE
To obtain effective protection, it is necessary that the solution penetrates the concrete and not merely forms a film. The depth of penetration of liquid will be shallow if the first application blocks the pores in the concrete and thus limits the penetration of subsequent treatment. It is therefore, necessary to use diluted material first and progressively increase the concentration in subsequent coats.
- Clean the surface thoroughly with wire brush, etc.
- Prepare a dilute solution of 0.5 Kgs. SUNFLOOR METALLIN in 3.5 Kgs. water. This quantity is sufficient to give a first coat wash to 10 sq metres of area. Use a broom or brush, ensuring that the liquid is uniformly absorbed in the entire area.
- After an interval of 24 hours prepare another solution using 1 kg. SUNFLOOR METALLIN in 3 Kg. of water. Apply a second coat of this solution in the manner described above.
- After another 24 hour interval apply the third wash or coat using 2 Kg. of SUNFLOOR METALLIN in 2 kg. of water.
For normal protection treatment three coats are usually sufficient.
PRECAUTIONS
It is advisable to use rubber gloves etc. while handling SUNFLOOR METALLIN. Wash thoroughly with water any part of the body that has come into contact with SUNFLOOR METALLIN.
