COLOR

Stonres RTZ is available in 15 standard colors and an extensive color palette. Refer to the Stonres RTZ Color Sheet.

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

Proper preparation is critical to ensure an adequate bond. The substrate must be relatively level, deviations of more than 1/8 inch per foot may result in irregularities which will require patch­ing. The substrate must be dry and free of all wax, grease, oils, fats, soil, loose or foreign materials and laitance. Laitance and un­bonded cement particles must be removed by mechanical methods, i.e., abrasive blasting or scarifying. Other contaminants may be removed by scrubbing with a heavy-duty industrial de­tergent (Stonkleen DG9) and rinsing with clean water The sur­face must show open pores throughout and have a sandpaper texture. For recommendations or additional information regard­ing substrate preparation, contact Stonhard's Technical Service Department.

PRIMING

The use of the Standard Primer/SL Primer system is required for all applications of RTZ. The procedure is as follows:

Apply Standard Primer to the substrate. Next, apply the first coat of SL Primer Then, apply a second coat of SL Primer 30 minutes after beginning the first coat. Both the Standard Primer and first coat of SL Primer must be wet while applying each coat of SL Primer The primer system must be applied by squeegee and cure to a tack-free state before applying the Stonres RTZ.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• DO NOT attempt to install material if the temperature of the Stonres RTZ components and substrate are not within 65 to 85T/I8 to 30°C. The cure time and application properties of the material are severely affected if the temperatures are out­side of this range.

• DO NOT use water or steam in the vicinity of the application. Moisture can seriously affect the working time and other properties.

• The use of NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators and safety glasses is recommended. The use of a NIOSH approved partic-ulate respirator is required when sanding or grinding floor sur­faces.

• Avoid contact with all liquid materials as they may cause skin and/or eye irritation. Workers should cover hands with imper­vious gloves.

• Use only with adequate ventilation.
