Surecrete Microtek Smooth Coat Micro-Topping Overlay – White 20# Bag

Description

Details:

MicroTek™ Smooth Coat Micro Topping is a thin concrete overlay mix that can be applied on floors and walls. Available in a white, our thin overlay can be colored with any of our 30 standard overlay colors.

SureCrete’s Micro Topping is a single component thin concrete overlay that is a self-bonding cement based, for interior concrete surfaces. Micro-Topping was designed to yield an exceptionally smooth tight-troweled finish that can provide a new “blank canvas” for decorative concrete floors. It may also be placed vertically on interior walls, creating the look of Venetian plaster. The application can be accomplished by trowel or “magic trowel.” Micro Topping thin concrete overlay is prepared with gray cement or white cement that may accept Color Packs.

When restoring an old concrete surface, or even possibly some freshly poured ones, inevitably there is some discoloration and cracks or maybe even significant patching that has to be done. These blemishes on your concrete slab can easily show through any decorative stains or sealers applied to your finished surface. With Micro Topping thin concrete overlay, your newly created “blank canvas” can alleviate these issues, giving you a nice clean surface to begin creating your new custom floor designs. While it may take a professionally trained hand too tightly trowel a flat surface using Micro Topping, many of the designs you can create using this product can be achieved by even the new Do it yourself (DIY) homeowner.

Mixing

• Each bag of Micro-Tek Micro-Topping powder requires 8-10 quarts of water.
• Do not add additional polymers!
• Pour 3/4 of the 8-10 quarts of water into an empty 5-gallon bucket.
• Add the entire contents of the powder and blend briefly with a drill-powered mixer to wet out the material.
• Wait 5-10 minutes, and then add the remaining water and mix at medium speed until the material is homogenous and free of all lumps.
• A mix similar to the consistency of buttermilk is ideal.

Application:

• Micro-Tek SG MUST be applied over Micro-Tek RG or G-100 Pro Series Grout.
  *Refer to appropriate TDS for installation instructions for the products.
• Pour 1/4 to 1/3 of the mix onto the surface.
• At this point, the material may be applied to large areas using a squeegee to spread the material and finished by hand or “funny trowel,” or simply spread and troweled by hand. In either case, a thin coating is recommended.
• Material builds over 1/8″ are discouraged.
• Let Micro-Tek Micro-Topping dry completely and sand the surface between layers, if desired.
• Remove all dust and debris.
• For a smooth, power-troweled look, trowel the material near to final thickness and then flat trowel again after a few minutes much like you would regular concrete.
• Sweat and broom finishes can be accomplished in much the same manner.
• Concrete Coatings, Inc. Micro-Tek SG Micro-Topping should be applied prior to staining, sealing, and waxing.
