THERMOPAL floor renovation system
Key Facts
With the THERMOPAL floor renovation system, the laborious treatment of individual cracks can be omitted and the load bearing capacity of old floors can be re-established. It additionally contributes towards the stabilization of the substrate.
Areas of application
- Wearing surface in living areas
- Garages & workshops
- Industrial floors
- Interiors and exteriors
- For building component transitions
- For substrate preparation prior to subsequent wearing layers and floor finishes
System advantages
- Time saving renovation
- Low build-up depth
- Substrate stabilizing
- Waterproofs against penetrating moisture
- Crack-bridging
1 Substrate preperation
- Remove poorly bonded components via diamond grinding or shot blasting. Vacuum the substrate to produce a dust-free surface.
- Firstly place the self-adhesive insulating edging strip RD-SK50 at wall/floor junctions and at building components rising through the floor. Where the wall/floor junction is missing, firstly produce the waterproofing layer.
2 Rolling out and laying
- Cut ASO-RSG to the required length. Lay the reinforcing membrane onto the prepared substrate with the printed side uppermost. Keep a distance of ca. 3 cm from building components rising through the floor.
- Overlap membrane edges by at least ca. 20 mm.
3 Coating and bedding in
- Coat the area with ASODUR-SG3-thix. The coating can be evenly applied using a rubber squeegee and nylon roller. Subsequently back-roll the area and even out.
- Evenly broadcast the freshly applied coat of ASODUR-SG3-thix to excess with kiln dried 0.5 - 1.0 mm quartz sand.
4 Installation of the wearing layer
- Thoroughly remove the excess quartz sand after ca. 12 hours by sweeping and vacuuming. Subsequently overcoat the areas with the mineral-based industrial flooring ASOCRET-HFF.
- Immediately after laying, de-aerate the fresh levelling compound with a spiked roller. For additional surface protection, we recommend overcoating the cured surface with ASODUR-V360W in the desired colour.
