SPECIFICATION

• ASTM D-4586 Type I, (Non-)
• Fed Spec #SS-C-153 Type I (except -Free)

SURFACE PREPARATIONSurfaces must be clean, dry and free from oil, grease, release agents, laitance, dirt, dust and debris. All cracks and holes should be filled with Karnak #86AF Fibered Trowel Mastic prior to surface coating. If the surface is porous, it is recommended that Karnak #108 Asphalt Primer be utilized to provide a firm film base prior to application of Karnak #86AF Fibered Trowel Mastic.

APPLICATIONKarnak #86AF Fibered Trowel Mastic is easily applied with a regular trowel. Using even strokes, a smooth uniform film can be obtained and provide adequate protection. Coating should be continuous and free of pinholes or holidays. Allow the film to cure for at least 24 to 48 hours prior to backfilling. Cure time can be affected by the film thickness and the temperature. Care should be taken during backfilling, so as not to puncture or damage the coating. A protection board is highly recommended to protect the film when backfilling. Backfilling should take place within 7 days.

COVERAGE RATEA recommended coverage rate of 5 to 6 gallons per 100 square feet is desired for adequate protection. Application rates can vary depending upon the surface to be covered.

CARE OF TOOLSTools and other equipment should be thoroughly cleaned with mineral spirits, taking necessary precautions when handling combustible materials.
