Description
INSTALLATION SURFACE PREPARATION
Concrete and Plaster Surfaces: All masonry should be twenty-eight (28) days cured and shall be structurally sound, clean, and free of any moisture, wax, oil, paint particles, curing agents, or foreign matter. Remove any liquid curing agents or concrete sealers, followed by a clear water wash.
MIXING
Using a clean mortar box or mechanical mixer, add sufficient cool clean potable water to desired, plastic-like, consistency. For additional strength and performance add Southcrete™ 25 Acrylic Mortar Admix in lieu of water. Do not re-temper mortar mix; discard and prepare fresh mix. Machine mixing is preferred.
NOTE: All cement-based products have the potential for efflorescence to materialize. This whitish powder or crystalline deposit may become visible before, during, or after installation is completed. Water with a high mineral content can also cause efflorescence.
