SURFACING & FINISH GENERAL: Refer to detail drawings, product data sheets and manufacturer’s published general requirements for application rates and specific installation instructions. Layout and install all surfacing and finish using manufacturer’s recommended practice and procedure with appropriate color breaks reviewed and approved by the owner and/or owners representative. Color breaks should help improve appearance, hide minor variations in color or texture and allow for localized repairs of the surfacing and finish if needed. Install wearing, surfacing and finish layers over fully cured primer, membrane or subsequent layers. The substrate shall be dry and free of any dust, loose particles or contaminants. Mix resins and resin-mortars using a slow speed agitator prior to pouring into a larger container. For resin-mortars, combine the powdered filler with the resin and evenly mixed to create mortar. Mix resin-mortar, surfacing or finish resins with catalyst approximately 2 minutes using a clean spiral agitator on slow speed or stir stick until evenly mixed. Do not aerate. Mix only the amount of resin-mortar, surfacing or finish resin that can be used within the application time. Apply the catalyzed resin-mortar, surfacing or finish resin onto the substrate as recommended, working the material into the surface for complete coverage and full adhesion. At tie-ins and previously applied primer, membrane, resin-mortar, surfacing or finish layers, clean cured surface with specified cleaner before application of subsequent resin materials. Traffic Surfacing and Finish are semi-rigid materials formulated for durability and performance. As semi-rigid components, when applied over softer or more flexible materials, cracks and micro fissures may occur in the surfacing and finish layer. Although this does not affect the system performance, it will impact the cosmetic appearance of the surfacing and finish. To help reduce or avoid potential cosmetic cracks or fissures, surfacing and finish should not be applied over areas of potential movement including the following: Hold surfacing & finish back ½ in from horizontal to vertical transitions at walls, penetrations and leading edge of any bond breaker. Do not apply surfacing & finish over any metal components where stripped in with membrane to allow for movement.
