Novofloor 1-K Elastic N

Elastic and hardened by air humidity, UV-resistant, low-solvent single component polyurethane floor coating.

For floors with concrete and cement mortar surfaces that require flexibility, good water resistance and crack bridging. Particularly suitable for coating balconies. Not recommended for floors subjected to high mechanical stress. For professional use only.

For coating the floors of balconies, outdoor corridors, outdoor passenger corridors, etc.

Method 1: 0.5-1kg/m², dry film thickness 0.2 - 0.5mm Method 2: 1-1.6kg/m², dry film thickness 0.5-0.9mm. For waterproofing coating, use 1.6kg/m² consumption Method 3: 2.0-2.5kg/m², additionally for example 0.5-1.5mm quartz sand approx. 1.5 kg/m². Total dry film thickness 1.5 – 2.0mm.

Solventborne

In a cool and dry place. The product reacts with moisture in the air and must be stored carefully in a sealed container. The storage time of the container if unopened, is 9 months. It is recommended that an opened container is used at once.

The concrete surface should be dry and at least 4 weeks old. The relative humidity of the concrete should be less than 97%. During painting and drying, the air, the base and the paint must be between +10 and +30ºC and the relative air humidity less than 80%. On moist bases (relative humidity of the concrete > 97%) Temafloor 220W primer is used for priming according to the product insert. Novofloor 1-K Elastic N can also be applied at lower temperatures (≥ + 3°C) when Novofloor Kiihdytin is added to the product (see product insert).

New concrete floor: The concrete adhesive layer is mechanically removed from the surface of the concrete, eg by sandblasting or diamond grinding. The best method for removal is chosen according to the space in question. After mechanical cleaning, the cement dust is carefully hoovered or washed off with water. Cement adhesive can also be removed with hydrochloric acid pickling. Pickling is made with diluted hydrochloric acid (1 part strong hydrochloric acid, 4 parts water). Then the floor is rinsed with plenty of water and dried well. Old concrete floor: The floor is cleaned of dust and loose debris. Grease, oil, chemicals and other impurities are removed by emulsion washing. Old and flaking paint is removed by sandblasting, grinding or milling. The best method for cleaning is chosen according to the space in question. Floor holes are cleaned up all the way to a healthy and clean concrete. The cracks are opened, for example, with an angle grinder. Loose material and dust are removed.

Treatment combinations Method 1: Light usage (for example, glazed balcony), layer thickness 0.2-0.5mm - Priming: 1-2 x Novofloor 1-K Primer (thinning 20-40%) - Painting: 1 x Novofloor 1-K Elastic N Method 2: Medium usage (for example, open balcony), layer thickness 0.5-0.9mm - Priming: 1-2 x Novofloor 1-K Primer (thinning 20-40%) - Coating: 1 x Novofloor 1-K Elastic N Method 3: Heavy usage with surface buffing (for example, outside corridor), layer thickness 1.5 -2.0mm - Priming: 1-2 x Novofloor 1-K Primer (thinning 20-40%) - Coating: 1 x Novofloor 1-K Elastic N + sanding full with quartz sand 0.5-1.5mm - Painting: 1 x Novofloor 1-K Elastic N (thinning 3%) Skirting/sloping surfaces: - Coating/painting: 1 x Novofloor 1-K Elastic N + 1.5-2.0% Novofloor Paksunnin. Non-slip buffing: - In Methods 1 and 2, a buffing treatment may be used to increase the friction of the coating. A 12.5kg container of Tikkurila Liukueste is added and mixed thoroughly. The coating is poured on the floor in lines and evened out by cross rolling. Mosaic flakes: - In Methods 1 and 2, the surface can be livened up by sprinkling the desired color of Tikkurila Mosaic flakes 30-50g/m2 on the surface. Note! Mosaic flakes cannot be used with Method 3.

Novofloor thinner.

The painted surface reaches its final usage and chemical resistance about 1 week after the surface treatment. Avoid cleaning during this time. Clean the surface with a brush, mop or dusting cloth. Dirty surfaces can be cleaned with a neutral (pH 6-8) detergent moistened cleaning tool. Note: Coffee, wine, tree/plant leaves, petals, etc. may cause discolouration of the surface. However, this does not affect the technical characteristics of the product.
