Ardesia floor Microcemento monocomponente sacchi da 18 kg
1. PRODUCT FEATURES
ARDESIA FLOOR is a special mineral powder designed to create prestigious indoor flooring without
any joint. Its great flexibility allows to obtain continuous floor-wall solutions of high-quality design.
ARDESIA FLOOR gives a surprising sensation of comfort that no type of synthetic resin flooring is
able to convey.
The ARDESIA FLOOR application cycle has the great advantage of being a one component powder
product, to be mixed only with water, used both as smoothing mortar and as a finishing coat.
2. COMPOSITION
Hydraulic binders with very high mechanical strength, selected silica aggregates, fillers, special
polymers and additives.
3. APPLICATION
1. In case of existing ceramic floor, perfectly clean and degrease the substrate and carefully check
its perfect cohesion. Apply a coat of EOS PRIMER ES with a roller or brush, evenly distributing the
fine aggregate it contains and let it dry for at least 24 hours.
In case of cementitious screeds, vacuum up all traces of dust and debrits. Apply one or two coats
of EOS PRIMER AF diluted with water in a ratio from 1: 3 to 1:8 depending on the absorption of the
substrate.
2. Slowly add the content of a 25 kg bag of ARDESIA FLOOR into 6.5-7.0 liters of clean water, mix
with a slow speed drill for at least 3 minutes, avoiding the formation of lumps; let the mix rest for
about 5 minutes, remove any undispersed powder from the container and remix briefly. The
pigment paste (if used) must be added to the mixing water before mixing the powder. For very
deep colors with pigment paste dosages higher than 250 ml, it is recommended to reduce the
mixing water by the same volume of pigment paste used.
3. Spread the first leveling coat of ARDESIA FLOOR with a metal trowel, lay the fiber mesh by
squeezing it into the fresh product with the trowel, taking care to overlap it at the joints for at least
5 mm.
4. After 24 hours, apply a second layer trying to level and obtain a perfectly homogeneous and
smooth surface.5. Spread the last layer of ARDESIA FLOOR to obtain the desired aesthetic effect. It is essential at
this stage to take great care in smoothing the product, avoiding very high pressure with the trowel
(as usually done with a marmorino coat) which could cause unpleasant imperfections of dark
shades.
6. After 24-48 hours, sand the product with a vacuum sander, using nr. 120 sandpaper, until the
desired degree of fineness is obtained.
7. Vacuum perfectly all traces of dust and processing residue. Clean the entire flooring with a damp
cloth.
8. Finish the surface with two coats of EOS LIQUID GLASS or EOS POLYGLOSS at a distance of
about 24 hours from each other.
Avoid applying the product with relative humidity higher than 80%; do not apply on damp substrates
or where it has been ascertained the presence of rising humidity. Assure with a carbide hygrometer
that the humidity content of the substrate is less than 3% b.w. (the sample must be taken at a depth
of about 4 cm).
