APPLICATION
MULTICOAT SCRATCH KOTE 2000
is furnished in 65 lb. bags and field mixed with potable
(clean) water in the approximate amount of 1 ?- 2 gallons
per bag, preferably with a special MULTICOAT Mixing
Paddle. (More water may be needed depending upon ambient
temperature.
Mix vigorously to disperse
all lumps and to thoroughly wet all particles. Suggest 1 -
1?minutes after all dry material added. Use margin trowel
to clear vessel walls. For best results let Scratch Kote
stand in bucket for 3-5 minutes then add a small amount of
water to rebreak material. This will give the material
additional pot life.
Check for consistency by
applying to a prepared vertical pool wall with 1?quot; nap
roller. Applied material should not peak
or slump. If too thick small clumps will
come away with roller. Add small amount of water, remix
and retest. If material slumps add solids, remix and
retest.
Apply with 1?quot; nap roller
or spray to entire prepared surface.
ALLOW TO CURE FOR A MINIMUM OF 24 HOURS BEFORE
APPLYING POOL PLASTER - LONGER IN COOL WEATHER OR INDOOR
APPLICATIONS - 48 to 72 HOURS IS IDEAL. |
