    • Preparation
      • Substrate requirements

        The substrate must be firm, dimensionally stable, capable of bearing loads and free of loose constituents, dust, oil, grease, rubber marks and other substances that could interfere with adhesion.

        The tensile strength of the surface of the substrate must be at least 1.5 N/mm² on average (smallest individual value of at least 1.0 N/mm²), and the compressive strength must be at least 25 N/mm².

        When used in the OS 8 system, the tensile strength of the substrate must be at least 2.0 N/mm² on average (smallest individual value of at least 1.5 N/mm²).

        Test report available on bond behaviour in conjunction with rear moisture penetration according to DIN EN 13578 in the OS 8 system.

        Substrates must have reached their moisture balance and must also be protected against moisture penetration from the reverse side, including during use.

        Concretemax. 4 m% moisture

        Cement screedmax. 4 m% moisture

      • Preparations

        Prepare the substrate by suitable means, e.g. steel shot blasting, so that it meets the specifications listed above.

        Broken-out or missing areas in the substrate should be filled flush with the surface using Remmers RM systems (RM = Repair Mortar) or Remmers EP mortars.

    • Preparation
      • Mixing ratio comp. A 82.8 : comp. B 17.2
      • Mixing time 3 min
      • Combination container

        Add the entire quantity of the hardener (component B) to the base compound (component A).

        Mix thoroughly with a slow-speed electric mixer
        (approx. 300 - 400 rpm).

        Pour the mixture into a separate container and mix again thoroughly.

        Mix for at least 3 minutes.

        Insufficient mixing is indicated by streaks forming.

    • Application
      • Application temperature: min. 10 °C max. 30 °C
      • Mortar cover / Self-levelling coating / Apply standing
      • Pot life 25 min
      • As a general principle, higher temperatures will reduce and lower temperatures will increase the times stated.

    • Working tools / cleaning
      • Mortar cover / Self-levelling coating / Apply standing
      • Smoothing trowel, toothed trowel, notched spreader, rubber scraper, epoxy roller, spiked roller, mixing equipment, positive mixer if necessary

      • More detailed information can be found in the Remmers Tool Programme.

        Clean tools, equipment and splashed material immediately while fresh with V 101.

        Take suitable protective and waste disposal measures when cleaning.

    • Storage / shelf life
      • Store frost-free
      • Shelf-life 12 months
      • If stored unopened in the original container and kept cool, dry and protected from frost, min. 12 months (component A)/min. 24 months (component B).

    • Usage
      • See application examples

    • Application examples
      • Priming

        Apply the mixed resin generously to the surface. Distribute with a suitable tool, e.g. rubber blade, and work into the substrate with an epoxy roller so that pores in the surface of the substrate are completely filled.

        It may be necessary to apply several layers.

        Additional priming is required on highly absorbent or open-pored substrates.

        approx. 0.40 - 0.60 kg/m² binder (depending on the substrate)

      • Levelling layer/scratch coat

        Pour the material – filled up to 1 : 0.5 parts by weight – onto the prepared surface, spread using a suitable trowel, and roll over again with a spiked roller if necessary.

        Per mm layer thickness: approx. 1.20 kg/m² binder and 0.60 kg/m² Selectmix 01/03

      • Base layer for blinded coatings

        Pour the material – filled up to 1 : 0.5 parts by weight – onto the prepared surface, spread using a suitable toothed trowel/notched spreader, and roll over again with a spiked roller if necessary.

        Liberally broadcast fire-dried quartz sand over the base layer while it is still fresh.

        Remove any loose, excess material after hardening.

        min. 0.8 - 1.0 kg/m² (plus filler)

    • General information
      • Unless otherwise specified, all of the values and application rates given above have been determined under laboratory conditions (20 °C) using standard colours. Slight deviations from these values may arise if the product is worked with on site.

        Primers must always be applied so that all pores are filled; it may therefore be necessary to increase the application rate or to apply a second coat.

        From experience, slightly opaque colours (e.g. yellow, red or orange, etc.) have a varnishing effect. Please consider this when choosing and assembling systems.

        When coating continuous surfaces, only use materials with the same batch number as slight differences in colour, gloss and texture may occur.

        Abrasive mechanical loads leave traces of wear.

        Epoxy resins are generally not colourfast when exposed to UV light or weather.

        Observe the corresponding test certificate for OS 8 systems.

        Observe the instructions for use of the corresponding Remmers Deck OS 11 systems.

        Further notes on working, system construction and maintenance of the listed products can be found in the latest Technical Data Sheets and the Remmers system recommendations.

    • Disposal instructions
      • Larger quantities of leftover product should be disposed of in the original containers in accordance with the applicable regulations. Completely empty, clean containers should be recycled. Do not dispose of together with household waste. Do not allow to enter the sewage system. Do not empty into drains.
