A 50 lb (22.7 kg) bag of TAMMS will yield approximately 0.4 ft3 (0.01 m3) of material. Applied at the following thicknesses, one 50 lb (22.7 kg) bag of TAMMS THIN PATCH will cover:
1/4“ (6.3 mm)= 19.2 ft2 (1.78 m2)
1/2” (12.7 mm)= 9.6 ft2 (.891 m2)
1” (25.4 mm)= 4.8 ft2 (.445 m2)
Note: Coverage rates are approximate and are for estimating purposes only
Surface Preparation: Concrete surfaces must be structurally sound, free of loose or deteriorated concrete and free of dust, dirt, paint, efflorescence, oil and all other contaminants. Mechanically abrade the surface to achieve a surface profile of CSP 4 or greater in accordance with ICRI Guideline 310.2. Properly clean profiled area.
Priming & Bonding (Horizontal Toppings): For the best adhesion to concrete, use EUCOFLOOR EPOXY PRIMER seeded with sand as the bonding coat. Refer to the EUCOFLOOR EPOXY PRIMER technical data sheet for full instructions. Alternatively, application of EUCOWELD 2.0 or a scrub coat of TAMMS THIN PATCH to the saturated surface dry (SSD) concrete surface may be used for bonding. The topping material must be placed on the scrub coat before the scrub coat dries out.
Priming & Bonding (Saw Cut & Chipped Out Repairs): Thoroughly clean any exposed reinforcing steel, and apply DURALPREP A.C. to the concrete and the reinforcing steel within the repair area. Refer to the DURALPREP A.C. technical data sheet for full instructions. Alternatively, application of EUCOWELD 2.0 or a scrub coat of TAMMS THIN PATCH to the saturated surface dry (SSD) concrete surface may be used for bonding. The repair material must be placed on the scrub coat before the scrub coat dries out.
Priming & Bonding (Vertical Skim Coats/Toppings): Apply EUCOWELD 2.0 or a scrub coat of TAMMS THIN PATCH to the saturated surface dry (SSD) concrete surface. The repair material must be placed on the scrub coat before the scrub coat dries out.
Mixing: One 50 lb (22.7 kg) bag of thin patch will require 3.25 to 3.5 qt (3.1 to 3.3 L) of potable water. Mix thin patch in a clean container using a slow speed drill and mixing blade. Pour potable water into the clean container and then gradually add the thin patch. Mix thoroughly to disperse all ingredients and to achieve a trowelable consistency. Do not use excess water, and do not re-temper.
Application: Apply sufficient pressure to fill all holes and voids, then trowel to a smooth finish. On large areas, use a screed to obtain a uniform level before troweling. Do not overtrowel. It will achieve initial set in approximately 40 minutes; final set in approximately 1 hour, and cures within 24 hours under normal drying conditions. Maximum thickness of application is 1” (25 mm) per lift. When applying multiple lifts, allow prior lift to reach final set, score the surface then place the subsequent lift.
