Mapei Latexplan Trade Two Part Smoothing / Levelling Compound is used for levelling and smoothing differences in thickness of 3 to 10 mm (in one application) on new and existing substrates, to prepare them for any type of flooring installation.
Latexplan Trade is suitable for areas subject to chairs with castors.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Latexplan Trade is a two-part smoothing compound that consists of a grey powder (part A) containing special cements,
graded silica sands and additives to be mixed with a synthetic rubber latex (part B).
Latexplan Trade can be walked on after approximately 1-2 hours and is ready for installing flooring after about 12 hours,
depending on the thickness and the ambient temperature.
Latexplan Trade has a very low odour and this makes it suitable for use in confined and inhabited areas, where working
and/or occupation must be maintained.
Suitable for use under a damp proof membrane such as Mapeproof ESM, where residual or static moisture is present. For
the best results, Latexplan Trade should be mixed without extra latex or water being added.
Some application examples
Smoothing concrete floors, cement based screeds, Mapecem and Topcem screeds.
Smoothing existing flooring in concrete, terrazzo, ceramic tile, natural stone
APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Preparation of the substrate
The substrate must be clean, structurally sound, free from grease, oil, paint and plaster residues, surface laitance and
contamination, including surface hardeners and additives that may compromise the bond.
Application of the primer
On highly porous and absorbent surfaces, a coat of primer prior to the application will prevent pinholes / air bubbles
within the surface, providing a smooth even finish.
Eco Prim T Plus acrylic primer may be used on all absorbent and non-absorbent substrates. On difficult and nonabsorbent surfaces the use of Eco Prim Grip Plus primer will ensure perfect bonding.
Do not prime when Latexplan Trade is to be used beneath a surface membrane such as Mapeproof ESM.
Mixing
Mix 25 kg of Latexplan Trade part A powder into 5 kg of Latexplan Trade part B liquid. The Latexplan Trade part B liquid
container should be shaken, poured into a clean mixing container and the Latexplan Trade part A powder added gradually
whilst continually stirring with a mixing paddle and slow speed drill. The mixed mortar has a workability time of approx.
20-30 minutes at +23ºC.
Do not add more liquid or water to the mix once it has begun to set.
Application of the product
The mixed material is poured onto the prepared substrate and spread with a smooth edged trowel to the required
thickness in one operation. Additionally the use of a spiked roller will ensure a smooth even finish that will not require any
further attention prior to the floorcovering being installed.
The correct mix permits any application from featheredge to 10 mm, although for the best results a minimum 3 mm
application is recommended. (Apply at a minimum floor temperature above +5ºC.)
Drying
At normal temperatures Latexplan Trade will take light foot traffic after 1ó to 2 hours, and accept bonded floor coverings
after 12 hours.
A room temperature of +13°C - +18°C should be maintained with a substrate temperature of at least +5ºC (good ventilation
will considerably assist drying times, but avoid strong draughts).
Cleaning tools
All tools and mixing containers should be washed and cleaned immediately after use before the material hardens.
COVERAGE
One unit will cover approximately 6 m at 3 mm thickness.
STORAGE
Latexplan Trade part A has a storage life of approximately 12 months if stored in dry conditions.
Latexplan Trade part B has a storage life of approximately 24 months if stored in dry conditions and protected from frost.
