SURFACE PREPARATION:

MULTICOAT MICRO-TOPPING must be applied to structurally sound substrates. The substrate must be free of mold, mildew, grease, oil, dirt, dust, wax, curing compounds, sealers, paint, efflorescence and any loose material.  Cleaning may be accomplished by acid etching, mechanical sanding or minimum 3500 psi power washing. If the surface is cleaned with muriatic acid, it must be thoroughly neutralized by flushing with a solution of baking soda and water. Smooth steel troweled concrete must be roughened to insure a good bond. If patching of the concrete surface is necessary, it may be re-leveled with Multicoat Speed Mix.

EXPANSION JOINTS:

The control and expansion joints are NECESSARY. Do not fill expansion or control joints with MICROTOPPING. Structural cracks and cracks due to continuing movement of the substrate may telegraph through the MICRO-TOPPING. After application of MICRO-TOPPING fill expansion or control joint with suitable caulking.

MIXING:

Pour 5 to 7 quarts of water into a clean pail. Do not deviate from this amount. Slowly add MICROTOPPING to the pail. To avoid lumps, add the powder slowly while mixing. Faster mixing can be achieved by using a drill and paddle mixer. Consistency should be that of pancake batter. Let mixture stand for 3-5 minutes (depending on weather) and then remix.  Add Multicoat Colorant at this time if so desired. To insure uniformity, add the same amount of colorant to each pail. Color variations may occur within each pail.

APPLICATION:

MICRO-TOPPING is typically applied using a steel trowel or “Magic trowel” for a smooth finish.  MICRO-TOPPING can also be applied using a hopper gun or squeegee. MICRO-TOPPING should be dry after approximately 6-8 hours depending on temperature and humidity. MULTICOAT MULTISTAIN, ACRATHANE COLORSEAL or CLEARSEAL may be applied.  Do not bridge expansion or control joints with the MICRO-TOPPING.

LIMITATIONS:

• Do not apply if substrate temperature is below 40°F or above 100°F, or if ambient temperature below 40°F above 100°F.  Do not apply if precipitation is expected within a twenty four (24) hour period.
• Newly poured concrete slabs must cure for a minimum of 14 days.
• If product is applied during hot and windy weather, the product will set too fast and become unworkable.
• Installations requiring acid and/or industrial chemical resistance require MICRO-TOPPING to be sealed with Acrathane sealer.
• Using too much water will prevent MICRO-TOPPING from curing properly.
• Applying the MICRO-TOPPING too thick will increase the susceptibility of mud cracking.

PACKAGING AND STORAGE:

MICRO-TOPPING is furnished in 50-lb bags. Shelf life is approximately 24 months. Store in a dry environment.

SAFETY DATA SHEET

Multicoat Corporation offers a special 5-year Limited Materials Warranty to Trained and Certified Applicators. This Limited Warranty (effective upon date of purchase) protects the Applicator against delamination problems with all Multicoat systems, as well as water intrusion of Multicoat’s Waterproofing System, provided:

1. Multicoat system has been properly applied by a certified applicator.

2. Problem is determined to be due to defect of Multicoat Corporation’s products.

3. Applicator has prepared and filed the required Warranty Information Form(s) with Multicoat Products, Inc. covering the specific customer job(s).

NOTE:

Warranty is not applicable if there is movement or cracking of the underlying base and/or the weight bearing cement covering of the waterproofing membrane.

Failure to adhere to good construction and workmanship practices based on industry standard construction, means, methods, sequences and techniques could result in delamination, de-bonding and water intrusion for which Multicoat will not be responsible.

The end user must look to the Certified Applicator for satisfaction if any problem develops with the Multicoat system covered by the warranty. Multicoat suggests that the customer:

1. Use only a licensed contractor in good standing (fully bonded).

2. Make certain that the applicator has been certified by Multicoat, prior to work

commencing or certification while on the job. A simple phone call to Multicoat is sufficient to determine if an applicator is certified and if such certification is in

good standing.

In the event that it is determined that the Applicator failed to install the system(s) in accordance with Multicoat’s “instructions for use” or “specifications”, the warranty is void. See specific warranty information below.
