Description
wire brush. Remove all dust and loose matter MASTERTOP® 20 is a colourless low viscosity using a soft broom or industrial vacuum. If wetting liquid for application to concrete. It hardens and of the floor has taken place during preparation it commencement of MASTERTOP® 20 application. Typical applications
Hardening and dustproofing concrete floors or Method of application:
cement-based wearing screeds and pavings in: Stir the MASTERTOP® 20 before use. Pour evenly, or use a plastic watering can to sprinkle the MASTERTOP® 20 liquid over the surface of the backwards and forwards over the floor to ensure Advantages
even penetration. Any MASTERTOP® 20 not totally absorbed into the surface should be removed by mops or squeegees before drying. 24 hours after initial treatment, apply a second coat in a similar manner (some floors may require three coats). 24 hours after the final coat, wash By combining with the free lime produced during hydration of the cement, MASTERTOP® 20 forms The floor may be walked on and used during the hard insoluble crystals thus binding the particles together and sealing the surface to form a hard Watchpoints
