SikaRep LW | MCTCHEMICALS | SIKA PAKISTAN

Usage: SikaRep LW is typically used for repairing and resurfacing concrete and masonry surfaces in both new and renovation projects. Its key uses include:

• Repairing cracks, holes, and damaged areas in concrete and masonry structures.
• Resurfacing and patching concrete floors, walls, ceilings, and columns.
• Ideal for applications requiring lightweight repair materials in overhead and vertical surfaces.
• Suitable for use in areas exposed to weathering, freeze-thaw conditions, and light chemical exposure.
• Ideal for use in residential, commercial, and industrial environments where weight reduction is required.

Application:

1. Surface Preparation: Ensure the surface to be repaired is clean, dry, and free from dirt, dust, grease, oil, or loose concrete. For cracked or damaged areas, remove any loose or deteriorated material using a wire brush, grinder, or other appropriate tools.
2. Mixing: SikaRep LW is a ready-to-use, pre-mixed product. However, if needed, add clean water to adjust the consistency. Mix the product until it achieves a smooth, lump-free consistency. Use a mechanical mixer for best results.
3. Applying the Mortar: Apply SikaRep LW using a trowel, putty knife, or float, depending on the repair area. For deep repairs, apply in multiple layers, allowing each layer to set before applying the next.
4. Curing: After applying the mortar, allow it to cure for at least 24 hours before exposing it to normal use. The curing time may vary based on environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity. Keep the surface moist during the curing process to avoid premature drying.
5. Clean-Up: Clean all tools and equipment with water immediately after use before the mortar sets. Once cured, the product becomes difficult to remove.
