• Big variety of floors, a broad range of colors ; can be mixed with colored sand aggregates.

Application procedure

Preparation of the surface: The substrate must be of sufficient compressive strength. It must be dry, clean, free from laitance, friable material, paint or curing liquid. To achieve an open textured surface, sand blasting or grinding is recommended prior to the application. High spots and other surface defects must be removed to achieve an even and smooth surface.

Application: Firstly, mix homogeneously the resin or component A. Then, mix the resin and the hardener in a uniform way. Apply the first coat (primer) by a roller or by a metal trowel in case of mortar, in a ratio bond/ sand aggregate 1:0.5 to 1:1.5 using 0,1 to 0,3 mm sand. In this first application, the sand should be added slowly to the resin and hardener using an electric low-speed mixer to minimize air entrainment. A uniform mortar should be achieved.The main coat of COPSAFLOOR 600 is spread over this coat by a metal smooth trowel or a tooth trowel (according to the pavement). The sand aggregate proportion varies according to the type of the desired flooring: multi-coat, dry mortar or self-leveling (for each case, please, refer to our Technical Department). Add the corresponding color concentrate to the main coat, stirring slightly until a uniform color is obtained.

A sealing coat of resin COPSAFLOOR 600 and a color concentrate is applied to the finish, upon request, using a roller or a rubber rake, to achieve an easy-to-clean anda esthetically pleasant finish. Should colored sand aggregates be used, a color concentrate is not added to the main coat or sealing.

Tools cleaning: The tools and utensils should be washed with COPSA solvent cleaner immediately after their use. If the product hardens, it can be removed only mechanically.

Consumption

COPSAFLOOR 600 yield depends on the selected type of floor as well as on the required thickness. Therefore, it is best to consult our Technical Department.

Priming: 400 g/m² applied by a roller, 1.6 kg/m² of mortar at 1:1.4 binder / aggregate rate, applied by a metal trowel.

Main coat: multi-layer flooring: 1.6 kg/m² mortar (binder/ aggregate rate 1:1.4).

Self leveling floors: 1.7 kg/ m²/ mm mortart hickness (binder/ aggregate rate 1:1.4).

Dry mortar: 2 kg / m²/ mm mortar thickness (binder/ aggregate rate 1:10).

Sealing: yield varies between 400 and 600g.

Dosing of COPSA concentrate: the ratio concentrate / COPSAFLOOR 600 is usually 0.5:10. (Consult our Technical Department).

Packaging

COPSAFLOOR 600 is supplied in sets of two components of 5, 20 and 40 kg. The color concentrates are supplied in cans of 0.5 kg.
