7.2.2.4 Installation Instructions

Surface Preparation

The surface to be repaired must be clean, dry, and free of oil, grease and loose matter. The bonding surface should be roughened, using a small

hipping hammer or bushing tool, swept

c clean and blown with clean, dry, oil-free compressed air, or vacuumed clean.

Where the patch will terminate, the concrete must be sawcut and chipped out 1/4" deep.

No priming is required with RM 700 EP, so installation is quick, easy and economical.

Temperature

RM 700 EP should be stored at temperatures between 50°F and 90°F (10°C and 32°C) prior to use. Substrate temperatures may be between 50°F and 80°F (10°C and 27°C).

Troweling

For large patches, apply RM 700 EP mortar in 2 foot wide strips. Lattice boards will help ensure proper thickness. Spread and finish with a

ectangular steel trowel, taking care to

r minimize trowel marks. Be sure the edges of patch are flush with the surrounding concrete. For smaller patches, a trowel alone may be sufficient.

Trowels may be coated with a commercial solvent such as mineral spirits, to give the finished work a smoother appearance.

Maintenance

RM 700 EP may be cleaned with most floor cleaning detergents. Aggressive solvents should be avoided.

Mixing

Proper mixing is critical when installing epoxy repair mortars. Do not mix more mortar than can be applied in 30 minutes. Drain the contents of Part B completely into a clean mixing container.
