Vetotop US172

The surface should be sound, clean, free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt-curing compounds, etc. Laitance and weak surface layers should be removed using mechanical methods, such as grinding or blasting, to provide a sound, well-profiled surface. All necessary repairs should be made before the application process begins (Use the same material for those repairs). New concrete floors should be at least 5 days old and visibly dry (with no standing water on top). Grooves must be cut in concrete to control shrinkage. Contact Saveto for more information.

Apply the surface-material that will serve as base for Vetotop US172 directly to sound and non-porous concrete.

Vetotop US172 is supplied in three pre-weighed packs (base, hardener, and aggregate) that are ready for on-site use. Do NOT mix partial quantities as it will affect both the performance and the finished floor’s appearance. Mixing should be done using either a forced action mixer or a heavy-duty mobile mixer fitted with a suitable jiffy-type mixing paddle. The type & capacity of the equipment used should be approved by Saveto.

Mix the components in a suitably sized mixing container. Stir the base and hardener components individually, then empty them into the mixing vessel (scrape the edges) and mix for 2 minutes. 

Slowly, add the content of the graded aggregate pack and mix for another 3 minutes until the mixture is completely homogeneous.

Spread Vetotop US172 to a uniform thickness on the primed surface using either a screed box or the edge of a steel trowel. Tamp the material with a wooden float to ensure complete compaction. Finally, finish to a closed & even texture using a steel trowel. Screeding rods are useful to maintain a minimum compacted thickness of 6 mm. Apply the material within the pot life after mixing.

Vetotop US172 doesn’t allow fluids to cross through it when applied as a layer that’s 6 mm thick. Which is ideal in areas where wet areas are common and inconsistent and where a superb degree of cleanliness is necessary
