Bitumen Mastic

For optimal results, follow these steps:

Surface Preparation

• Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dirt, dust, oil, or grease.
• Remove loose material and contaminants thoroughly.

Priming

• Apply ANTICORR® Bitumen Primer to the surface for enhanced adhesion.

Application

• Break the mastic into small pieces and heat to 160°C–205°C until workable.
• Apply using a trowel or straight-edged piece of wood for a smooth, even layer.
• Allow 24 hours for curing before putting the surface into service.

Cleaning

• Clean tools immediately with white spirit or a suitable solvent.
• Remove hardened material mechanically.

Storage and Safety

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from ignition sources, as the product contains flammable solvents.

Safety Precautions

• Avoid inhalation of vapors in confined spaces.
• Take standard fire precautions during storage and use.
• Wipe spillages before the mastic sets.

Limitations

• Not suitable for areas exposed to excessive heat, solvents, mineral oils, or grease.
• Do not apply on damp surfaces.
• Allow sufficient drying time before overcoating, and use only black bituminous paints to avoid bleed-through.
