SURFACE PREPARATION:
Remove all loose dirt, oil, dust, grease and other contaminents
so as to expose a good, clean, sound surface. For wood floors
ensure any loose flooring is tightly nailed down and support
is sufficient, that there is no excessive deflection under
normal loads. Apply E-Z Flow Primer 100 by using a roller
or soft bristle brush on to the surface area and allow to
dry completely.
MIXING:
Mix 4.5L (4.5 qts.) of clean water to 22.7 kg (50 lbs.) of
E-Z Flow Concrete Floor Underlayment while mixing. A power
mixer is recommended. let stand for 2 to 3 minutes, remix
and add more water if needed to obtain a lump free flowable
mixture. Do not over water; over watering will cause discoloring
and bleeding. Do not over mix.
APPLICATION:
For small installations, mix E-Z Flow powder and water in
a five gallon pail using a 1/2" heavy duty drill with
a Turbine Mixer or similar mixing paddle. Place the liquid
E-Z Flow Floor Underlayment by pouring directly from the mixing
container. If needed spread material in place with a spreader.
E-Z Flow Floor Underlayment will continue to be flowable during
the first 15 minutes after mixing. For larger installations,
mix 2 bags at a time in a mechanical mixer. E-Z Flow Floor
Underlayment can be pumped to installation area. (Contact
manufacturer for pump recommendations). E-Z Flow Floor Underlayment
can be installed from featheredge to a thickness of 2.5 cm
(1") in one operation. For areas of greather thickness
it is recommended to mix the E-Z Flow Floor Underlayment with
washed peagravel 6mm (1/4") in size. Mix E-Z Flow Floor
Underlayment with water first, then add peagravel. Use 10
kg (22 lbs.) of peagravel per bag. If aggregate is wet, reduce
the amount of water to avoid overwatering. If peagravel is
not available, then E-Z Flow Floor Underlayment can be applied
in a series of 2.5 cm (1") pours until the desired thickness
is obtained.
CLEANING:
Clean with water as soon as possible after application.
WISE
TIPS
- If
substrate is moist or wet due to hydrostatic pressure, Stone
Mason Waterproof cement should be applied to seal out moisture
prior to application of primer.
- Porous
surfaces will require 2 coats of primer to avoid pinholes,
bubbles and improve flow properties of EZ Flow Underlayment.
- A
1/4" minimum thickness of material is recommended with
the exception of feather edged areas.
