XS Precast Slurry is a single component cement-based mix formulated to fill pinholes and voids in XS products or any precast concrete where a smooth finish is desired. When combined with XS TruColor and/or SC TruColor color packs, it allows design elements to match, complement, or contrast with the concrete piece.
SURFACE PREPARATION
Precast pieces should be cleaned with SCR 3:1 with water (3 parts water to 1 part SCR) see SCR TDS. Surface should be sound (i.e. no crumbling or flaking).
APPLICATION
Mixing and Handling
- Estimate quantity of mix required, allowing for possible future touch-ups.
- Add a portion of dry Color Pack if desired to dry mix and stir in thoroughly.
- Set aside some of dry mix for possible future touch-ups.
- Estimate quantity of water required, < ¼ of dry mix volume to be used.
- Slowly introduce XS Slurry into a vessel containing premeasured water and mix by hand or with cordless drill equipped with a jiffy-style mixer.
- Add additional water as desired, should be approximately tile grout consistency.
Slurry Coat
- All voids and pinholes to be slurried must be dry.
- Rub and push slurry with a gloved hand into all voids and pin
- Entire piece must be slurried to maintain color consistency.
- Remove excess slurry while still malleable with a plastic Bondo
- Allow to dry to the touch.
- Several lifts of Xtreme Slurry may be required for especially rough textures.
- Sand away excess dried slurry with orbital sander equipped with 200 – 400 grit sand paper or diamond pad.
SUITABILITY SAMPLE
Always prepare a sample to establish aesthetic suitability. Sample approval is especially critical for custom coloration.
CLEAN-UP
Before Xtreme Slurry dries; spills and tools can be cleaned up with water.
DISPOSAL
Contact your local government household hazardous waste coordinator for information on disposal of unused product.
TEMPERATURE/CURE LIMITATIONS
XS Slurry has no special curing properties. It matches the properties required by its host precast surface and application should be inside a shop. See XS Precast and XS Face TDS.
For use by trained professionals that have read the complete SDS.
CAUTIONS
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Inhalation: Avoid prolonged breathing of airborne dust, particularly present during mixing. Use NIOSH approved respirator for nuisance if threshold limit values are unsafe.
Skin Contact: Skin contact may cause irritation. Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin with soap
and water. Launder clothing before reuse. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Eyes: Wear safety eye protection when applying. Contact with eyes may cause irritation. Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
