Base Substrate Requirements

Ambient and Surface temperature: Min. +10C (but at least 3C above dew point) Max. +30C Relative air humidity max. 80%. Compressive Strength min. 25 N / mm2. Pull off strength > 1.5 N / mm2. No broken or honeycombed concrete. The surface must be level & free from all contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, coatings & surface treatment, etc. If any doubt apply a test area first.

Treatment to joints
All other stable joints (saw cut joints / dummy joints / construction joints) are to be filled up prior to lay the screed as per the designed thickness using Dr.Fixit Epoxy flooring screed.

Dr.Fixit system for different areas of structures is as follows:

Ground bearing slab / Intermediate slab Ramps Coving / skirting Marking

1. Ground Bearing Slab / Intermediate slab Surface Preparation

The long term durability of Dr.Fixit system is dependent upon the adhesive bond achieved between the flooring material and substrate. It is most important that the concrete substrate is correctly prepared prior to application. The concrete substrate should be free from contamination such as mortar, paint splashes, oil, grease etc. Excessive laitance should be removed by light mechanical grinding followed by vacuum cleaning. Existing epoxy coating must be removed manually. Wherever the bonding of epoxy is intact, removal of existing coating, if required, must be done by scarification process. The surface must be prepared by shot blasting or mechanical grinding, connected with a dust collector to minimize dust generation. Substrates should be dry or if damp there should be no visible or standing water.

System
Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy MI EP( Primer)- 1st coat + Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy MI EP(Primer) 2nd coat + Fine Quartz (Broadcast) + Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy EC SF (2 coats)

Application Methodology
Primer (1st coat)

Prime the surface with a neat binder Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy MI EP Primer (Moisture Insensitive Epoxy Primer) containing Comp. A & Comp B mixed thoroughly with a mechanical mixer to get a homogeneous consistency mix. After application of primer, wait for minimum 30-60 minutes for the primer to become tacky.
Primer (2nd coat) & Broadcast quartz

Prime the surface with a neat binder Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy MI EP Primer (Moisture Insensitive Epoxy Primer) containing Comp. A & Comp B mixed thoroughly with a mechanical mixer to get a homogeneous consistency mix. After application of primer, immediately broadcast sand evenly on the freshly laid scratch coat. Allow it to dry completely. Sealer coat with Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy EC SF Mixing

Transfer part A in a suitable clean container, add part B to it and stir with a low speed electrical drill withattached paddle stirrer at 250 300 rpm for 3 - 5 minutes to a homogeneous & uniform colour mix. Application Apply the mix material by brush or roller on to the primed surface. Intercoat application time is 8 to 10 hours. If earlier coat has cured for longer duration, roughen the surface by sanding & then subsequent second coat should be applied. Finished coating should be protected and allowed to cure for 7 days.

System
Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy MI EP( Primer) + Dr.Fixit PidiPU Wearing Layer + Fine Quartz (Broadcast) + Dr.Fixit Pidipi TC (Sealer coat PU Top coat)

Application Methodology
Primer

Prime the surface with a neat binder Dr.Fixit Pidipoxy EP Primer, containing Comp. A & Comp B mixed thoroughly with a mechanical mixer to get a homogeneous consistency mix. After application of primer, wait for minimum 30-60 minutes for the primer to become tacky. Wearing layer and Broadcast quartz Mix Part A & Part B in their individual containers to uniform consistency & appearance. Transfer Part A & Part B into a clean & dry mixing vessel. Mix together using a slow speed (400 rpm) drill with a spiral mixing head to a homogeneous & uniform mix. Start addition of Part C, filler component gradually under continuous mixing by increasing speed of the drill to a homogeneous & even mix. Mix the material for atleast 5 minutes to a uniform colour shade. Pour the mixed material on to the primed or crack bridging layer applied floor surface & spread at required coverage rate to get the desired DFT by trowel. Move spiked roller over the coated surface to remove entrapped air. After overnight curing / 16 hrs curing of Dr. Fixit PIDIPU WL coating apply one or two coats Dr. Fixit PIDIPU Top Coat Immediately broadcast sand evenly on the freshly laid scratch coat. Allow it to dry completely.

Note: Broadcasting of quartz is completely depended upon the texture / roughness required at site which shall be decided after the site trials. Sealer coat with Dr.Fixit PidiPU TC Remove the excess quartz particles from the surface. Seal the broadcasted surface with sealercoat Dr.Fixit Pidipu TC Application of Top Coat Dr.Fixit PidiPU TC Mixing Mix Part A & Part B in their individual containers to uniform consistency & appearance. Transfer Part B, Hardener component to Part A, base component container completely. Mix together using a slow speed (150 200 rpm) drill with a paddle or cowl disc mixing head to a homogeneous & uniform mix. Scrape the sides & bottom of the mixing container during mixing. Sieve the mixed material through fine muslin or bolting nylon cloth.
Application

Pour the mixed & sieved material at required coverage rate to get the desired DFT by using best quality paint brush or spray or roller. Apply second coat at right angle to the first coat. Allow it to cure for minimum 16 hours for foot traffic & 48 hours for capable of bearing loads.
