Novofloor 1-K Elastic

Elastic low-solvent single-component UV-resistant polyurethane coating that hardens as affected by air humidity.

Cement mortar and concrete floors that require flexibility, water-tightness and bridging of cracks. Especially suitable for coating balconies. Not recommended for floors subject to heavy mechanical stresses. Only for professional use.

For coating of floors of balconies, social premises, foot traffic passageways, etc.

Painting 0.5-1 kg/m² , dry film thickness 0.2-0.5 mm Coating 1-1.5 kg/m² , dry film thickness 0.5-0.8 mm Consumption of 1.5 kg/m² leads to the best result for leveling cracks

The concrete surface must be dry and at least 4 weeks old. The relative humidity of the concrete should not exceed 97 %. The temperature of the ambient air, surface or coating should not fall below + 10 °C during either application or drying. The relative humidity of the air should be below 80 %.

New cement floors: Remove the laitance layer by surface grinding, centrifugal blasting or hydrochloric acid pickling. Choose the method best suited for the premises in question. After cleaning, carefully remove the dust with a vacuum cleaner. Hydrochloric acid pickling is carried out with diluted hydrochloric acid (1 part concentrated hydrochloric acid, 4 parts water). Rinse the floor with plenty of water and dry the floor carefully. Old cement floor: Remove all dust and loose material from the floor. Remove all grease, oil, chemicals and other impurities by emulsion cleaning or flame cleaning. Remove old peeling paint layers by sand-blasting, grinding, milling or centrifugal blasting. Choose the method best suited for the premises in question. Clean out holes and cracks on the floor until you reach healthy, clean concrete. Open cracks with, for example, an edge grinder. Remove loose material and dust.

First coat:

Stir well before use. Coating may be carried out no less than 4-12 hrs (+23°C) and no more than 24 hrs after priming and patching. If the surface is more than 24 hours old, sand before coating. Pour the coating on the floor and spread it with an adjustable trowel, toothed trowel or mohair roller. Spike-roll the coated surface approx. 15 minutes after spreading to smooth the coating film and remove air bubbles. Use shoes with soft spikes when walking on freshly coated sections.

The painted surface reaches ultimate durability and hardness in approximately 2 weeks after surface treatment under normal conditions. Avoid cleaning during this time. Clean the surface with a brush, mop or dust cloth. Clean soiled surfaces with a cleaning tool and neutral (pH 6-8) detergent.
