It can be <br />troweled or sprayed and is shrinkage compensated. <br />Typical Applications: <br />Concrete and masonry that require patching or resurfacing in. Particularly <br />suited for storm water and sewer manholes, waste water treatment plants, <br />tunnels and parking garages. <br />Advantages: <br />• Easy-to-use; just add water, non flammable, non-toxic <br />• Not a vapor barrier <br />• Low shrinkage, fiber reinforced <br />• Trowel or spray apply <br />Substrate Preparation: <br />• Substrates must be dry, of load bearing capacity, hardened and be <br />free from potential bond breakers such as dirt, dust, grease, oil, sealers, <br />curing compounds, form release agents, laitance, loose toppings, <br />foreign substances and adhesive residue, etc. <br />• Only proceed with application when the temperatures remain between <br />40°F and 90°F (4°C and 32°C) and protect from freezing for <br />24 hours after application. For temperatures above 85°F (29°C), <br />follow ACI hot-weather application guidelines to ensure a successful <br />installation. <br />• All surfaces to be repaired should be damp (SSD (saturated <br />surface dry)) but have no standing water. Hot surfaces should be <br />cooled and shaded while cold surfaces should be heated and <br />sheltered. Mechanically remove all loose materials by suitable means <br />such as chipping hammer, chisel, sandblast, waterblast, or similar <br />methods. <br />• For proper adhesion, the concrete substrate must have a fractured <br />aggregate profile. <br />• All exposed steel reinforcement must be cleaned to a white metal finish <br />and primed with an anti-corrosion coating. <br />• Repair areas should have saw-cut straight edges with a minimum of <br />1/4” (6 mm) depth (avoid featheredging). <br />Mixing: <br />Measure: 0.9 - 1.2 gal water per 50 lb bag powder (3.4 - 4.5 L per <br />22.7 kg) depending on type of application. <br />Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Data Sheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>All data are averages of several tests under laboratory conditions. In practice, climatic <br />variations such as temperature and humidity may affect these values.</p> <p>Packaging & Approx. Yield: 50 lb (22.7 kg) bags. <br />• 0.42 ft3 (0.012 m3) or <br />• 10 ft2 (0.9 m2 ) at 1/2” (12.7 mm) thickness.. <br />Storage and Shelf Life: <br />12 months when stored dry in the original, unopened packaging. <br />• Add MEGA-MORTAR-IC powder to water and mix thoroughly for at <br />least 3 minutes with a mechanical mixer to a stiff mortar consistency for <br />repairs, and a pumpable consistency for spray (gunite) applications. <br />Adjust water using small quantities until proper consistency is obtained. <br />Installation: <br />1. Apply a small amount of mixed MEGAMORTAR-IC to the SSD substrate. <br />Work material into the entire substrate and cavity to promote proper <br />bonding. <br />2. Trowel or spray apply MEGA-MORTAR-IC in lifts of 1/4” to 2” (6 - 50 <br />mm) into the wet scrub coat before it dries, keying in and compact <br />thoroughly. Note: Use air-pneumatic, low pressure spray equipment with <br />8-air jet gun and 3/8” to 1/2” (10 - 12 mm) orifice for optimum output. <br />Spray material in circular motion at right angle to the substrate, keeping <br />a distance of 1 to 2 ft (300 - 600 mm) to avoid excessive re-bound and <br />material loss. <br />3. A 2nd layer may be applied as soon as the 1st layer has sufficiently <br />hardened. Leave surface of 1st layer rough, to provide good <br />mechanical bond for 2nd layer. <br />4. Finish final layer with steel trowel or sponge float. MEGA-MORTARIC can be screeded or shaped to a reasonably smooth finish. Use <br />AQUAFIN-1K as a final coat if a smoother finish is required. <br />Note: <br />• MEGA-MORTAR-IC may be used in connection with a bonding agent <br />(acrylic or epoxy). <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />(04/25/18 EK)</p> <p>MEGA-MORTAR-IC <br />• MEGA-MORTAR-IC can be top coated with AQUAFIN-IC cementitious <br />crystalline waterproofing where enhanced waterproofing or chemical <br />resistance is desired. Apply AQUAFIN-IC while MEGA-MORTAR-IC <br />surface is still fresh to assure seamless, tight bond. <br />Curing <br />Damp cure for 3 days. Begin curing as soon as the patch has set by <br />keeping surface moist as per ACI recommendations for Portland cement <br />concrete, using burlap, polyethylene or a fine mist of water. If this is not <br />practicable, coat with an approved water based curing compound, <br />(contact Aquafin Technical Department for approved products). However, <br />curing compound may adversely affect following lifts of mortar, leveling <br />mortar or protective coatings. <br />Clean up: <br />Before material hardens, thoroughly clean tools with water after use. <br />Note: <br />Installer is responsible for proper product application.
