How to use Zemcoat Skimcoat – Super Fine
1. Mixing
| Mixing Ratio (approx.) | |
|---|---|
| Water | Zemcoat Super Fine |
| 0.35 L | 1 kg |
| 7 L | 20 kg |
NEVER mix old batch with new batch.
Pour water in a plastic pail and add Zemcoat Super Fine. Mix 2 – 3 minutes to attain a smooth and lump-free consistency. Let mixture rest for 15 minutes. Mix again briefly before use.
2. Application
While the surface is still damp, apply Zemcoat Super Fine to desired application thickness (0.5 – 2mm) using a steel trowel. Zemcoat Super Fine has set when the finish looks matte. If further smoothening is needed, sprinkle a small amount of water when the surface is about to set, then smoothen with rubber float to desired finish.
Dampen concrete surface before Zemcoat application.
- When using Zemcoat variants with the same color, apply Super Fine just before Original is about to set.
- When using Zemcoat variants with different colors, apply Zemcoat Super Fine only after Original has already set.
3. Finishing
Zemcoat Super Fine must receive further finishing as protection (e.g. paint, wall paper, concrete sealer, etc.). Cure 3 – 5 days prior to further finishing.
