MICROCEMENT PROTECTOR GLOSS

• Environmental conditions: - It is recommended, especially indoors, to have air renewal. - Room temperature: 5-35 ºC - RH ≤ 75%. - Substrate temperature: ≥ 7ºC and 3ºC above the dew point. - The recommended thickness per coat is between 30-40 microns dry.

• Mixing: - Using slow mechanical agitation, homogenize the MICROCEMENT PROTECTOR. - While continuing to stir, slowly add the HARDENER. The mixture increases in viscosity. - Keep stirring slowly for at least 5 minutes. - Finally, add the amount of water based on the application method and the surface to be varnished. - Control the speed to avoid the mixture acquiring excess air.

• Dilution: - For walls and roller application, a maximum of 15% water to prevent the mixture from losing its thixotropy. If applied with a spray gun, an additional 5% can be added. - For floors and roller application, it is possible to increase the dilution by an additional 5%. If applied with a spray gun, an additional 5% can be added. - In all applications, make sure not to leave more than 110 g/m2 of the A + B mixture.

• Application conditions: - Wait at least 4 hours, and no more than 24 hours, from the application of the last coat of MICROCEMENT SEALER to start varnishing with MICROCEMENT PROTECTOR. - Apply 2 to 3 coats.

• Final use: - The varnished surface can be walked on carefully after 24 hours (at a temperature of 20 ºC) and achieves its maximum physical resistance after eight days (at a temperature of 20 ºC). - The Microcement Ó deco system is not recommended for liquid containment supports such as pools, tanks, or bathtubs. - The Microcement Ó deco system finished with MICROCEMENT PROTECTOR (2K) is suitable for areas with high humidity (at least 8 days after application), even susceptible to direct contact with water from bathtubs and/or sinks (splashes, never immersion), being waterproof only for the uses described above and always respecting the application guide on the technical data sheet.

New Support:

MICROCEMENT Ó deco:

1. On dry MICROCEMENT SEALER.

2. Check that the appearance of the surface is as desired.

3. Ensure that the support surface is clean, dry, and free of any contaminants.

4. Apply two coats of MICROCEMENT PROTECTOR, respecting the drying times.

Restoration and Maintenance:

MICROCEMENT Ó deco with aged coatings:

1. Remove all old coating by sanding.

2. Sand the surface of MICROCEMENT Ó deco with medium grit (to provide anchoring).

3. Properly remove the generated dust.

4. Apply a new coat of MICROCEMENT Ó deco.

5. Treat it as a new support.
