A thickness of 12 mils (Approximately 400 sq. ft. per unit). Coverage will vary depending on surface profile and porosity.
1. Premix TERRAZZCO® Bonding Agent 159 resin part A using a low speed drill and jiffy blade for two to three minutes.
2. For 1 kit of Bonding Agent 158, add part B to part A. Mix using the drill and jiffy blade for two to three minutes.
3. Pour the mixed material onto the working area and spread using a roller or squeegee to achieve approximately 400 square feet @ 12 mils. All areas should be uniformly coated. Coverage will vary depending on surface profile and porosity. Kit content and coverage figures provided are for a standard kit. If a non-standard kit is required, please contact manufacturer.
4. In case of small application areas (approximately 50- 100 sqft), Bonding Agent can be immediately covered by terrazzo. If bigger areas are covered, priming will be a separate step – in which case fine aggregate broadcasting will be required, after which the Bonding Agent full set time will be 6-8 hours.
