Vetotop CL531 - AE

Premixed 8 to 20mm thick polymer modified cementitious self-leveling underlayment.

Vetotop CL531 is a single component polymer modified cementitious floor self-leveling underlayment composed of hydraulic binders, selected aggregates, and special additives. It is supplied as a dry powder in pre-weighed bags ready to use on-site; once mixed, it will form a cohesive self smoothening honey-like flowing mortar that is applied in thicknesses between 8 and 20mm, giving a super flat finish ready to receive final floor coverings including tiles, carpets, resinous flooring systems, parquet, ...etc.

Uses

  • Leveling of concrete slabs before application of final floor coverings such as tiles and resinous systems. 
  • As a substrate for vinyl tiles, parquet, carpet, and floor coverings that require super-flat substrates.

Advantages

  • Factory-controlled pre-blend ensures consistently high quality. 
  • Suitable for Middle East harsh weather conditions. 
  • Easy application enabling high productivity & superior finishing. 
  • Rapid commissioning and serviceability. 
  • High bond to the substrate. 
  • Excellent physical and mechanical properties. 
  • Shrinkage compensated. 
  • Excellent workability. 
  • Fiber-reinforced resisting crack formation.

Usage Instructions

The surface should be sound, clean, free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt curing compound, etc. 

Larger areas can be divided with wooden battens to control the pumping volume and determine the layer thickness to be applied. 

Priming the substrate is vital; use Vetoprime PB433 diluted with potable water (ratio of 1:1.5). Mix thoroughly and spray or brush onto the floor without pooling. 

Before applying Vetotop CL531, it’s important to leave the primer between 30-60 minutes to dry fully. In case of doubt, check the primer dryness by adding drops of water on top of the primer substrate; it should not absorb the water drops.

For a single bag mixing, add to the mixing container 4.25 - 5.0 liters of water for each 25Kg bag of Vetotop CL531. Add the powder to the water and mix with a mechanical plaster mixer or low-speed electric drill fitted with a suitable paddle for 3 - 4 minutes until achieving a uniform, lump-free fluid consistency. 

Try to minimize the water addition to get higher strength. Manual mixing is allowed for small batch quantities, mix for approx. 1-2 min or until achieving a homogeneous mix.

Apply Vetotop CL531 using screed pumping machine or directly from the mixing bucket. 

After placing onto the primed surface, apply by trowel or Pin Level Rake to the Vetotop CL531 spreads and adjust itself to a level floor. 

Use a suitable spike roll to remove entrapped air if there is any.

Vetotop CL531 is self-curing; seal off the area for 1 - 3 days. The floor becomes ready for commissioning or topping after 3-5 days. 

However , when applied in hot areas (35 0C) then it is mandatory to cure with clean water 3 times/day for 3 days.

Clean tools with water before the mortar hardens. After the hardening, remove its residuals mechanically only.
