Reebol® Emulsion

Rainfall : It is necessary to protect freshly coated form work from rain which may dilute the emulsion before it has dried.After drying the coating will withstand an occasional lighty shower but may be affected by heavy or continuous rain. In such cases, a further coat is advised once surfaces have dried out thoroughly.

De-moulding : De-moulding can be carried out in the normal way and no special precautions are necessary.

After de-moulding : Form work surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned, but this is normally easy due to the excellent release action.

Before re-use : The cleaned form work surfaces must be recoated with Reebol Emulsion each time, in accordance with normal practice.

Coverage

  • 1 litre of Reebol Emulsion when diluted with 5 litres of water will cover 80 to 160 m2 depending upon the nature of the substrate.
  • The highest coverage rate must be aimed for.As a guide :unsealed timber or plywood – 80 to 100 m2 / 6 litres of solution.
  • Steel or sealed (Reebol Formcote coated) plywood – 120 to160 m2 / 6 litres of solution.
  • If coverage rates are appreciably less than these and satisfactory results are not being achieved, then coverages should be increased as close to the higher figure as possible.

Storage

Reebol Emulsion has a shelf life of 12 months provided the temperature is kept in the range of 50C – 400C. If this temperature is exceeded in any respect, advice should be sought from the supplier.
