Livellina 0-10

Livellina 0-10 is a fine grey pre-mixed self-levelling cement mortar based on a mix of special rapid-hardening cements, select inert agents, synthetic resins and special additives. After mixing with water, you have a mix which is fluid and self-levelling, which has a considerable pot life and which is easy to use and apply using a spatula with thickness of 1 mm to 10 mm, with excellent adhesion to the surface. Once it has hardened, it is extremely resistant, in mechanical terms and to knocks and abrasion, with a smooth dust-proof surface, and is in class CT-C25-F6 according to EN 13813.

Instructions for use

Preparation
The surface must be clean and smooth, without dust, loose material and dirt in general. Remove any traces of oil and grease thoroughly. Remove any old floor adhesives residues (carpets, PVC, parquet, etc.). On anhydrite and magnesia-based surfaces, apply a coat of Tile Primer in advance and wait until it has dried completely (until the film applied becomes transparent).

Mixing the product
Mix Livellina 0-10 with about 23 – 25 % water (5,1 – 5,5 litres per 22 kg bag), if possible, using a low rpm drill with appropriate mixer attachment. Mix until the product is even, without lumps, fluid and self-levelling. Leave to rest for 4 – 5 minutes and mix again briefly. The mix prepared in this way has a pot life of approx. 30 minutes under normal conditions (at +20 °C). Higher temperatures shorten the pot life; lower temperatures increase the pot life.

Application
If there has been no prior treatment using Tile Primer, wet the surface until it is very wet, leave the excess water to evaporate or remove it using a sponge. Make sure you remove all the surface water. If there has been prior treatment using Tile Primer, this wetting procedure is not required. Pour the mix and apply the correct thickness using a paddle. Do not exceed a thickness of 10 mm. Final levelling is automatic. If the thickness required is above 10 mm, as soon as the first can be walked on (after about 3 hours at +20 °C) apply a coat of Tile Primer in a quantity of 60 – 80 g/m² and wait for the primer to dry completely (i.e. when the film applied becomes transparent). Then apply a second coat of Livellina 0-10. You can clean the tools with water before the mix sets. After it has set, you must remove the product from the tools mechanically.

Storage

Store in a dry and protected area. If closed in the original bags, it can be stored for at least 9 months.

Warnings

• Do not apply the product at temperatures below +5 °C or above +30 °C.
• Do not mix the product with other binders such as cement, hydraulic lime, gypsum, etc.
• Do not add water when the mix has set.
• Do not use the mixed product when it has already start to set. Therefore, always prepare quantities of mix which can be used within the pot life.
• Do not apply the product outdoors or in areas subject to the continuous presence of water or rising damp.
