Surfaces must be clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, grease, curing compounds, coatings, or any surface contaminants that may affect adhesion. Any high spots should be removed by mechanical grinding, and all loose or friable material must be thoroughly eliminated using vacuuming and/or brushing.

The concrete substrate must be structurally sound with a minimum compressive strength of 25 N/mm2 and a pull-off strength of at least 1.5 N/mm². 

Proper surface preparation is critical to ensure optimal bonding and long-term performance of Vetotop DecoFloor UB.

Vetotop DecoFloor UB is supplied as a two-component product ready for on-site mixing. Prior to mixing, stir Part A (base) thoroughly using a low-speed mechanical stirrer. Add the full contents of Part B (hardener) to Part A and mix continuously for approximately 2 minutes until a homogeneous blend is achieved. To ensure complete mixing, transfer the mixture into a clean container and mix again briefly. Avoid over-mixing to prevent air entrapment. 

After thoroughly mixing Parts A and B, gradually add Vetotop DecoFloor Quartz to the mixed binder. Mix using a slow-speed mixer or forced-action mixer until a uniform, homogeneous mortar is obtained. Typical binder: quartz mixing ratio is 1:5- 6 by weight for wearing course application, and 1:1 for slurry application. Continue mixing for approximately 2 – 3 minutes until the aggregates are fully wetted and evenly distributed. Free-fall mixers are not suitable and must be avoided.

Apply Vetotop DecoFloor UB using a notched trowel, roller, or squeegee depending on the system design. For decorative screeds or mortars, the mixed binder and quartz aggregate should be applied evenly onto the prepared substrate and compacted using suitable tools such as trowels or screed bars. 

For broadcast systems, immediately broadcast Vetotop DecoFloor Quartz to excess onto the wet binder. Ensure full coverage and allow the binder to self-level and penetrate the substrate. Work in sections, maintaining wet edges to avoid lap marks. Once cured, any excess aggregate should be removed before the application of topcoat.

Application must be carried out under controlled environmental conditions, avoiding high humidity, condensation, or extreme temperatures. Always ensure that the substrate temperature remains at least 3°C above the dew point during application.

Curing times depend on ambient conditions such as temperature and humidity. At 20 – 25°C, Vetotop DecoFloor UB is typically touch-dry within 6 – 8 hours, can receive light foot traffic after approximately 24 hours, and reaches full mechanical and chemical resistance after 7 days.

All tools should be cleaned with Vetonit Solvent XX400 immediately after use. Hardened material can only be removed mechanically.
