APPLICATION GUIDANCE OF TOA 258 CEMENT MEMBRANE:

SURFACE PREPARATION: The mortar and concrete surfaces must be cleaned, ensuring no dust dirt, oil, grease, old coatings, curing agents, or other impurities on the substrate surface. Absorbent surfaces must be completely saturated by freshwater before application.

MIXING: Mix with a mixer at low speed 300 – 500 rpm. Put ¾ part A in a clean pail, add part B slowly, and mix at least 3 minutes to get a lump-free homogenous mix. Add part A remainder and mix until homogenous.

APPLICATION:

• Using trowel, brush, roller, sprayer, apply a layer of mixed mortar onto the treated surface, which has been cleaned as well as saturated with clean water. Allow drying for 3 – 6 hours before applying the next coat.
• When applying on a horizontal surface, it is recommended to apply the next coating after 24 hours to ensure that the application process does not affect the former layer.
• Allow drying completely for at least 7 days before putting it into use.

Although construction is used qualified mortar and emulsion paint, it finds difficult to avoid the effects of the environment after a long time of use. Therefore, the waterproofing stage should not be passed to keep the concrete substrate from being patchy, extend the life of constructions and prevent mold growth, which affects the health of the family members.
