Adotard TF has been formulated as an aqueous mobile liquid suitable for spray application to the top face of horizontally cast concrete.
Adotard TF produces an exposed aggregate finish suitable for keying a construction joint or to enable excellent bonding of subsequent coatings or toppings.

Adotard TF should be spray applied to fresh horizontally cast concrete at a rate of 3.5m² / litre immediately after finishing, avoid excessive trowelling of the concrete as this may seal surface and negate the retarding action. Avoid application to free standing / bleed water.

During the curing period, protect treated surface from rain and frost.

Removal should take place between 18—20 hours.

The retarder matrix should be removed by hosing / brushing to expose underlying aggregate.

Adotard TF should be spray applied by pneumatic spray equipment at the rate of 3-5m² / litre. The depth of exposure is governed by the cement content, w/c ratio, etc.

Trail casts should be assessed prior to use, NB. Certain admixtures hinder retarding action, again evaluate prior to use.

Adotard TF is supplied in sealed 5, 20, 25 or 205 litre containers. No special storage facilities needed.

Spillages should be washed down to avoid slippery surfaces. Under normal temperate and dry conditions storage life is in excess of one year.
