PACKING

Area Of Application:

• Industrial areas subject to Repair workshops heavy traffic
• Machine shops
• Loading areas/unloading areas
• Warehouse Floor
• Ramps and Trucking lanes
• Car parks and garage floors

Method of Application

• After base concrete is placed, level the surface with float. Remove excess bleed water by dragging gunny bag on the surface or rubber hose.
• When concrete surface has stiffened to the point of sustaining floating operation, or when foot prints make an impression upto 2 - 3 mm depth. Dr. Fixit Piditop 444 should be applied in two shakes, using approximately two thirds of the total quantity for the first broadcast.
• The dry powder is evenly broadcasted over the surface at the rate of 2 to 3 kg/m2 .
• This top layer should then be power floated or wooden floats are to be used to press the powder into the substrate surface.
• Once the floating is completed all over the surface uniformly, the second shake at the rate of aprox. 1 to 2 kg/m2 should be broadcasted evenly over the surface immediately, provided water is seen on the surface of the concrete.
• For final surface finish, a flat steel trowelling or power trowelling or power trowelling can be done.

Precautions & Limitations

• For best results use water to cement ratio as less as possible.
• The concrete mix should be good with a slump ranging between 80 to 100 mm.
• Do not add additional water to the surface during finish.
• Use of water reducing admixture is recommended to be added to concrete cast for the floor
• For concretes with optimised w/c ratios, rate of broadcast will be maximum 2 kg/m2 in 2 stages.
