Product Information Bulletin 14.300


Storage and Shelf Life QC THIN-PAVE TOPPING MIX, QC THIN-PAVE COLOR PACK and QC THIN-PAVE BOND COAT POWDER - 9 to 12 months. Store indoors and away from moisture.
QC THIN-PAVE BOND COAT LIQUID -12 months. Store indoors and above freezing temperatures.
Important note: Rotate inventory using oldest product first.
Maintenance This will vary depending on a number of factors including volume and intensity of traffic, UV exposure, geographic location and weather conditions. For instance, interior applications will require a different routine maintenance program than exterior products. Residential applications typically require less cleaning and maintenance than commercial and municipal projects. In large interior commercial applications, a qualified floor maintenance contractor is recommended for routine cleaning. Exterior QC THIN-PAVE surfaces should be resealed annually depending on traffic, especially in freeze-thaw locations. Routine cleaning and maintenance of interior floors shall be done in accordance with job requirements. All QC THIN-PAVE installations should be professionally cleaned and resealed periodically by a qualified floor maintenance contractor in order to maintain a top-quality appearance. In general, expect the need for professional maintenance to occur every 12-24 months. Protective maintenance coats of sealer shall be applied periodically to assure the desired level of gloss is maintained.
Limitations
  • The QC THIN-PAVE system will bond tenaciously to foreign materials that are bonded to the substrate,
        but the ultimate bond strength is dependent on the bond strength of the foreign material.
  • QC THIN-PAVE will not properly adhere to the following:
                a. Freshly placed concrete that has not fully cured.
                b. Salt-contaminated surfaces due to deicing salts or the presence of calcium chloride.
                c. Surfaces with excessive ground water or hydrostatic pressure.
  • In freeze-thaw areas, weak or improperly air-entrained concrete will result in an unstable surface and poor adhesion.
  • Avoid placement of QC THIN-PAVE when the following weather conditions are present:
                a. Excessive heat/wind conditions - encourages shrinkage cracking.
                b. Surfaces below 40 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius) during installation or the first 15 days
                    of curing - QC THIN-PAVE improperly adheres to substrate.
                c. Surfaces below 33 degrees Fahrenheit (1 degree Celsius) in the second 15 days of curing -
                    inadequate strength or bond of QC THIN-PAVE.
Cautions Keep out of reach of children. Contains Portland Cement and free silica. See Material Safety Data Sheet for complete information.
