Surface Preparation

New cement render, masonry and concrete surfaces
New cement render, masonry and concrete surfaces should be allowed to cure for 28 days. Off form concrete should be thoroughly cleaned by acid etching, water or sand blasting to ensure all bond breaker oils are removed. Seal tilt slab concrete and CFC with Armawall Sealer/Bonder thinned 50% with GTA 007 to ensure adhesion of topcoats.

Previously painted surfaces – in sound condition
Previously painted surfaces in sound condition should be scrubbed down with detergent and fresh water, fresh water washed and allowed to dry.

Previously painted enamel surfaces
Previously painted enamel surfaces should be undercoated with Taubmans Tradecoat. Surface irregularities such as blow holes and profile defects may require patching with Armawall Filler or Patch prior to system application. CAUTION: When applying Armawall Santa Fe on large tilt-up concrete slabs or unbroken high rise off form concrete, you will not easily be able to maintain a wet edge. This may cause overlaps to stand out.

Application

Apply 2 coats of Armawall Santa Fe using a long nap roller.

Cleanup
Water, away from drains and watercourses.

Stirring
Stir Armawall Santa Fe prior to use.

Temperature
Avoid application when temperature is below 10°C and above 35°C.
