Test Data
Results provided by third party testing performed by Penniman & Browne and represent typical results from production materials. Actual results may vary from third party testing results; however, CERATECH’s materials meet and/or exceed established internal quality control standards, which will be provided upon request . All samples were air cured. 

How to Use Material
1. Concrete surface preparation
Surfaces should be prepared in accordance with ICRI 03730, “Guide for Surface Preparation for the Repair of Surfaces should be prepared in accordance with ICRI 03730, “Guide for Surface Preparation for the Repair of Deteriorated Concrete Resulting from Reinforcing Steel Corrosion.” Concrete surface should be prepared by appropriate mechanical methods to obtain an exposed aggregate surface with a minimum surface profi le of +/- 1/16” (1.5 mm), in accordance with ICRI 03732, “Selecting and Specifying Concrete Surface Preparation for +/- 1/16” (1.5 mm), in accordance with ICRI 03732, “Selecting and Specifying Concrete Surface Preparation for Sealers, Coatings, and Polymer Overlays.” Surface carbonation in the repair area inhibits chemical bonding of our repair materials. Therefore, it is necessary to check the pH of the prepared surface prior to applying our products. Pre-existing coatings or surface treatments should be completely removed. Dry, clean surfaces are preferred. Remove all standing water. Reinforcing steel should have no loose scale. All previously existing joints must be re-established within 1-3 hours of final set.

2. Mixing Instructions

• Loosen the materials in the bucket before mixing.
• Loosen the materials in the bucket before mixing.
• To ensure product performance, DO NOT divide or separate individual units into smaller portions. MIX THE ENTIRE UNIT AT ONE TIME.
• A drill (6 amp minimum) with a mixer blade turning at least 300 rpm (DO NOT HAND MIX) is required. Drills with speeds greater than 800 RPMs may entrain air in the mix. Care should be taken to dissipate all air pockets during placement. be taken to dissipate all air pockets during placement.
• To begin the mixing process, add the proper amount of water:
   
  

  For Each	Add
  44.5 lb (20.4 kg) 5 gallon (22 L) plastic bucket	1 U.S. gallon (3.8 L) of water
  11lb ( 4.99 kg) 2 (8.8 L) gallon bucket	1 U.S. quart (.95 L) of water

  
  
• The desired water temperature is between 60°F/16°C and 72°F/22°C.
  DO NOT USE WATER ABOVE 85˚F/29˚C
• After adding the water, it is very important to rapidly incorporate all of the dry Leveltite™ powders to achieve a uniform wet mixture within the first 30 seconds of mixing 

MIXING NOTES
Leveltite™ Measure mixture temperature 30 seconds after adding water. If blended mix temp is between 55°F/13°C and 70°F/21˚C, mix until a 10°F/5˚C rise in temperature is obtained. If blended mix temperature is above 70°F/21°C, mix for FOUR minutes. Working times will vary depending on initial blended mix temperature

• Working times are influenced by surface temperature and repair profile.
• Set Times at 72°F/22°C at 1” material depth
• Initial set: 15 -20 minutes
• Initial set: 25 -35 minutes
• Minimum profi le thickness is a 1/16 in. (1.5mm). There are no restrictions to the depth of the repair profile.
• Upon initial set of Leveltite™ a broom finish can be applied. Upon final set, the material can be saw-cut, drilled, sanded and/or polished.
• Do not re-temper. The addition of water to the surface of the repair will negatively affect the materials final properties.
• General loading for foot traffic 3 hours, wheeled traffic in 6 hours. In ambient and/or surface temperatures below 60°F/15°C, extended the loading time by 30 minutes for each 10° 60°F/15°C

• Self-curing

• Clean all tools and equipment with water prior to the material reaching final set.

• See Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
• This document does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
• Dispose of water materials in accordance with Federal, State, and Local regulations.
• The use of a dust mask, safety goggles and gloves is recommended.
• Keep out of reach of children.
