Surface preparation In the case of cementitious substrates, it must be ensured that the laitance layer is completely removed. This is usually achieved by grinding. All dust, loose and friable material must be completely removed by vacuum before the next application. Repairs to the substrate, filling of cracks, holes/voids or surface levelling must be carried out first. Repair areas must be cured before applying primers. Ensure the substrate moisture content is equal or less than 4 % (Calcium carbide method (CM-method). Apply Sikafloor®-150/-151 as a primer to obtain a closed pore free surface. 2-C polyurethane substrates need usually to be sanded with 40 – 80 grit sanding paper up to diamond disc.
