Surface preparation: ​ 

  • The surface must be clean, solid, and free from grease or impurities.
  • The surface must be treated as leaking before (if any).
  • The water absorption surface must be saturated to avoid water loss locally and reduce the flow of materials in the application process. 

Mixing:

  • BestGrout CE600 powder is added slowly to the mixing water to achieve flexibility (viscosity) as required for the application process. However, typically, the optimum mixing water is 13% compared to the weight of powder (3.25 liters of water per 25 kg bag of BestGrout CE600). Use a paddle mixer with a speed of 500-600 revolutions/minute to mix the compound until achieving the homogeneous as required (about 3 minutes).

Applying:

  • After mixing, use an iron trowel to stir lightly a few seconds to release air bubbles. Then, pour the compound immediately into the prepared formwork continuously to maintain the pressure necessary for filling the material layer to avoid air entrapment in the structure.
  • Notes: Formwork must be checked and guaranteed not to leak water during application and before the compound gets cured.
  • Do not use materials that timed out applying.

Important notes:

  • The product is applied to the minimum clearance of structure is 8 mm.
  • Curing procedure should be ensured strictly as products originating from other cement.
  • When applying to large structures with a thickness greater 60 mm, in order to save materials and reduce the heat of hydrolysis, and hydration, should add large aggregates are carefully selected as gravel, small stone 1x1… The quantity of large aggregate is added from 50÷100% and the mixing water is not over 14% compare to the initial weight of BestGrout CE600. Should be tested before application.

Cleaning:

  • Clean tools and equipment with water before the mixed grout hardens.

Safety:  

  • BestGrout CE600 is alkaline and can cause skin irritations. Wear gloves and masks while handling the product.
  • In case of accidental eye contact, wash with fresh water and seek medical advice immediately.
