Quartz Aggregated Surface Hardener
BOYTİM 570

Description:
It is a cement-based, quartz aggregate, ready to use surface
hardener that increases the surface strength, is applied by
sprinkling on fresh concrete surfaces in powder form.
Areas of Use:
Due to the quartz aggregate in its structure, it is applied on all
floor coverings, that are desired not to cause wear resistance
and dusting, according to the load and traffic conditions. It is
used in residences, workplaces, car parks, garages and ramps,
material stores, workshops, factories, fairgrounds, shopping
centers where human traffic is intensive, industrial buildings,
gas stations, etc.
Advantages:
• Easily applied on fresh concrete surfaces.
• Allows obtaining a smooth and homogeneous surface.
• Prevents abrasion against mechanical loads.
• Increases resistance against impacts.
• Delays surface dusting.
Application Information:
Application Temperature: (+5° C) – (+35° C)
Average Consumption: 5 kg/m²
Surface Preparation:
Bearing concrete of the application area must be at least C25
class.
-The surface of the fresh concrete, to be applied, should not be
polished with a steel trowel or tray polish, it should be smoothed
with a wooden trowel.
Application:
It is required to wait until it is possible to walk on concrete
before starting the application. Appropriate time is the time
when the concrete is hardened enough to have 0.5-1.5 cm deep
footprint when stepped on. BOYTİM 570 bags should be lined up
around the edges of the plaster strips according to plaster strip
width and consumption amounts.
BOYTİM 570 is distributed to the whole surface by sprinkling
method. The material should not be left on the surface in
clumps, the best possible homogeneous distribution should be
provided. Moreover, sprinkling over long distances should not be
done to prevent the aggregates in the product from separating.
This operation can be done by hand or with special sprinkling
equipment. At the first stage, 2/3 of the total consumption
is sprinkled on the concrete surface. The sprinkled material
should be waited to change color by absorbing the water of
the concrete. Sprinkled homogeneously and changing color by
absorbing water, BOYTİM 570 is compressed with tray polish to
ensure integration with concrete. Then the remaining material is
spread on the concrete surface as done in the first application.
Blade polishing starts and this process continues until the
desired gloss is achieved.
After polishing is completed; to protect the concrete surface,
BOYTİM CURE material should be used. BOYTİM CURE material
slows down the water evaporation rate in the concrete and
increases the concrete strength value, allowing the concrete
to set with the current amount of water. It prevents shrinkage
cracks and surface dusting.
The application should be avoided in very humid and very hot
weather, under strong wind or sun.
It should not be used on surfaces that are frozen, melting, or
have the risk of frost within 24 hours.
Warnings:
Do not breathe the product directly, as it is cement-based.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
