These figures are theoretical and does not include for any additional material
required due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level and wastage
etc.
The concrete substrate must be sound and of sufficient compressive strength

(minimum 25 N/mm ) with a minimum pull off strength of 1.5 N/mm .
The substrate must be clean, dry and free of all contaminants such as dirt, oil,
grease, coatings and surface treatments, etc.
If in doubt apply a test area first.
Concrete substrates must be prepared mechanically using abrasive blast cleaning
or scarifying equipment to remove cement laitance and achieve a profiled open
textured surface.
Weak concrete must be removed and surface defects such as blowholes and voids
must be fully exposed.
Repairs to substrate, filling of blowholes/voids and surface levelling can be carried

out using appropriate products from the Sika EpoCem and SikaDur range of
materials.
The concrete or screed substrate has to be primed or levelled up in order to
achieve an even surface.
High spots must be removed by e.g. grinding.
All dust, loose and friable material must be completely removed from all surfaces
before application of the product, preferably by brush and/or vacuum.

< 6% pbw moisture content.
Test method: Sika-Tramex meter or CM - measurement.
No rising moisture according to ASTM (Polyethylene-sheet).
80% r.h. max., adequate fresh air ventilation must be provided to remove excess
moisture during curing
Beware of condensation!
The substrate and uncured floor must be at least 3C above dew point to reduce
the risk of condensation or blooming on the floor finish

Mixing

Part A : part B = 70 : 30 (by weight)

Mixing Time

Prior to mixing stir part A mechanically. When all of part B has been added to part
A, continuously mix for 2 minutes until a uniform mix has been achieved.
To ensure thorough mixing pour materials into another container and mix again to
achieve a consistent mix.
Over mixing must be avoided to minimize air entrainment.

Sikafloor -2530W LP must be mechanically mixed using an electric power stirrer

(300 400 rpm) or other suitable equipment.
Prior to application, confirm substrate moisture content, r.h. and dew point.

If > 6% pbw moisture content, Sikafloor EpoCem may be applied as a T.M.B.

(temporary moisture barrier) system.
Primer
Make sure that a continuous, pore free coat covers the substrate. If necessary,
apply two priming coats. When used as a primer always apply by brush.
Coating

Sikafloor -2530W LP is spread evenly by means of a short pile roller.

A seamless finish can be achieved if a wet edge is maintained during application.

Sikafloor -2530W LP can also be applied by airless spray (spray pressure ~ 300
bar, nozzles with a diameter of 0.53 mm / 0.021 inch and a spray angle 60)

Mixing Tools
Application Method /
Tools

Uneven application of the material and resulting differences in the coating layer
thicknesses may cause differences in gloss of the surface.
Cleaning of Tools

Clean all tools and application equipment with water immediately after use.
Hardened / cured material can only be mechanically removed.

Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions
particularly temperature and relative humidity.
When the relative air humidity is 80% the waiting time should be increased by 24
hours.

Do not apply Sikafloor -2530 W LP on substrates in which significant vapour

pressure may occur. Freshly applied Sikafloor -2530W LP should be protected

from damp, condensation and water for at least 24 hours.
Avoid puddles on surface with the primer.

Always ensure adequate fresh air ventilation when using Sikafloor -2530W LP in
confined spaces to avoid curing problems.
The gloss of the finish can vary with temperature and the absorbency of the
substrate.
The incorrect assessment and treatment of cracks may lead to a reduced service
life and reflective cracking.

For exact colour matching, ensure the Sikafloor -2530W LP in each area is applied
from the same control batch numbers.
For spray application the use of protective health & safety equipment is mandatory!
As waterborne epoxy based material application is very sensitively with humidity,
temperature, curing & application time different may cause of different shade.

Note: Times are approximate and will be affected by changing ambient conditions.

To maintain the appearance of the floor after application, Sikafloor -2530W LP

must have all spillages removed immediately and must be regularly cleaned using
rotary brush, mechanical scrubbers, scrubber dryer, high pressure washer, wash
and vacuum techniques etc. using suitable detergents and waxes.
All technical data stated in this Product Data Sheet are based on laboratory tests.
