MIXING
For larger volumes, pour approximately 4.1 litres of clean fresh water into a suitable mixing container and slowly add all of the powder while mixing continuously with a Sika mixing paddle attached to a slow speed (500 r.p.m) electric drill. Reduce speed if required so not to untrap air into material. Thoroughly mix until a smooth, lump free consistency is achieved – minimum mixing time of 3 minutes is recommended.
For small volumes and partly mixing by hand, add 3 volumes of the Sika MonoTop® FC to 1 volume of clean fresh water and mixed thoroughly until fully lump free consistency is achieved.
The consistency can be adjusted by using less water if desired.
APPLICATION
Apply Sika MonoTop® FC to the prepared and dampened surface according to general plastering methods using a spatula, trowel or similar. Maximum thickness in a single layer = 3mm. If the Sika MonoTop® FC is to be over coated, as soon as the mortar layer has initially hardened, a fine gripping surface, comparable to sand paper, should be achieved by evenly rubbing down with a dry sponge or similar.
CURING TREATMENT
In moderate ambient conditions Sika MonoTop® FC does not require curing. On hot substrates and windy conditions protection to the substrate and curing may be necessary. If curing is required cure as soon as possible using in line with sound concrete practice.
