Application

Suitable for use over a wide range of subfloor types including sand/cement screed, concrete, granolithic, terrazzo, epoxy and polyurethane resins, ceramic and quarry tiles and STOPGAP waterproof surface membranes.


Description

STOPGAP 600 is a base compound designed for use where floor levels need tobe raised quickly and economically in light to heavy-duty applications onto soundabsorbent and non-absorbent subfloors.

STOPGAP 600 sets sufficiently in as little as three hours allowing it to be capped with STOPGAP Fast Track 30, 200, 300 or 1200 self-smoothing underlayments prior to he installation of new floorcoverings.

STOPGAP 600 is also suitable for use under STOPGAP 800 Wearcoat.

STOPGAP 600 is dimensionally stable and is supplied as a pre-blended dry powder, which is designed for application between 5-50 mm in one application. It is protein-free which allows it to be used in biologically sensitive areas.


Priming:

  • IT IS ESSENTIAL TO PRIME ALL SURFACES.
  • Absorbent surfaces - Prime with dilute STOPGAP P131 to prevent uncontrolled rapid drying of the compound.
  • Non-absorbent surfaces – such as adhesive residues, terrazzo, quarry tiles and STOPGAP waterproof membranes should be primed with neat STOPGAP P131 to ensure that good adhesion is obtained between the compound and substrate.
  • The primer should be used in accordance with instructions printed on the bottle and must be allowed to dry before applying the compound.
