Application Procedure
Preparation of substrate
Substrates must be dry, solid and clean. Wax must be removed from the floor chemically or mechanically.
Chemical wax removal: dissolve 1 kg of sodium hydroxide in 10 liters of hot water. Carefully wash the floor with a normal cloth and brush. Rinse using the same method mentioned above, using water acidified with muriatic acid, 1 liter in 10 liters of cold water. The last rinse is carried out using pure water. The next day, verify the removal of the wax before to applying the product. Mechanical wax removal: sand the surface with coarse grained sand paper until it is evenly roughened. Vacuum clean the dust and then apply the primer.
Preparing the product
Ready to be used.
Applying the product
Slightly wet a cotton cloth with Primer KL and rub it on the surface. Abundant applications are not recommended. The thinner the film deposited the better the product performs. This is the reason why only one coat is applied. As soon as the product dries approximately 10 minutes depending on the conditions the adhesive must be applied.
