Surface Preparation
abe.®rep 710 latex cement has been formulated to allow a thin, hard cementitious coating over concrete and masonry that requires levelling.
A sound base is essential for good repairs. Remove all oil, grease, dirt and disintegrated or unsound concrete from the areas to be repaired.
The substrate must be dry before application.
Electronic moisture content tests must be conducted prior to application of the priming system. Maximum moisture 4 – 5% max. (e.g. Protimeter Survey Master or equivalent) or Dynamic Calcium Chloride moisture “weight gain” over 24 hours or a practical overnight “plastic sheet test” is also advisable (approximately 1 m² masked down on surface).
