C2 GLOSS SYSTEM
Step–by-Step Application Instructions C2 Gloss System - C2 Hard + C2 Seal Before beginning, always read SDS and technical data sheet for complete instructions and safety information. Always prepare a test panel before proceeding.
Establish a grinding starting point on old concrete (50, 70, 100 metal > 50 resin, 100 resin and 200 or 400 resin).
- Based on the surface condition you can only use 50 resin, 100 resin and 200 resin steps. The concrete preparation/processing should stop at 200 or 400 resin diamonds based on the desired surface finish and gloss level.
Auto scrub only with a little water and vacuum.
Let the surface dry.
Shake and mix C2 Hard before application. C2 Super Hard can be use instead of C2 Hard.
Pre wet the microfiber with C2 Hard before application.
Apply C2 Hard by spray and evenly spread with microfiber applicator in a swivel motion; avoid streaks and micro lines.
- Avoid over-application. Continue spray applying sufficient C2 Hard to maintain a wet edge with the microfiber pad. Best results are achieved when two people are used for application - one to spray the product while the other uniformly distributes the product.
Let the surface dry for 15-30 minutes.
Auto scrub only with little water and vacuum to remove microelements of the densifier from the surface.
- You can also use a high-speed burnisher with a C2 Heat pad and burnish the surface. In this case use dry mop to remove dust from the surface after burnishing.
Shake and mix C2 Seal well before application.
Pre wet the microfiber with C2 Seal before application.
Apply well-mixed C2 Seal by spray and evenly spread with microfiber applicator in a swivel motion; avoid streaks and micro lines.
- Avoid over-application. Continue spray applying enough of the C2 Seal on the entire surface with the microfiber pad. Best results are achieved when two people are used for application – one to spray the product while the other uniformly distributes the product.
Let the surface dry for 15-30 minutes.
Burnish C2 Seal with a propane driven, high-speed burnisher and the C2 Heat pad. The microfilm has to be melted into the concrete with the surface temperature higher than 33° C.
As soon as burnishing is complete, apply the second coat of the C2 Seal as instructed above.
Let the surface dry for 15-30 minutes.
Burnish C2 Seal as instructed above.
We recommend applying 3rd application and burnishing when the surface is dry, as instructed above.
PLEASE NOTE:
- Do not over apply.
- The microfilm has to be melted into the concrete with the surface temperature higher than 33° C.
- Do not wash the surface with water for a minimum of 24 hours after the final application and burnishing.
- Use ONLY neutral PH cleaner for maintenance.
- The best cleaner is our lithium based cleaner – C2 Maintenance or C2 Clean.
ADDITIONAL SUGGESTIONS:
The above instructions suggest to apply C2 Hard or C2 Super Hard first and the C2 Seal after the final grinding. Another option is to apply the C2 Hard or C2 Super Hard at 200 resins, grind up the concrete to 400 resins, auto-scrub the floor and then apply the C2 Seal. This way you will grind-off any over-application of the hardener.
