Application instructions
Preparation
Clean the surface and remove any dust, unsound or
contaminated material, plaster, oil, paint, grease,
corrosion deposits or algae.

Nitomortar EL
by thorough washing to remove dust and remaining
particles, grinding using carborandum stone is an
acceptable means of preparation.
Application
Apply the mixed Nitomortar EL to the prepared substrate
at a minimum thickness of 3 mm by spatula or steel float,
pressing firmly into place to ensure positive adhesion and
full compaction. To avoid sagging on vertical surfaces, do
not apply in thicknesses over 12 mm.
Substrate priming
Build-up
Under normal circumstances concrete surfaces do not
require a primer. However, concrete or other substrates
which are highly porous or where build/sag requirements
are critical should be sealed with a single coat of
Nitoprime 28.
Finishing
To close the surface and to create a smooth, impermeable
finish lubricates the trowel with clean water. This may
give a slight whitening of the surface but des not affect
performance.
Mixing
Care should be taken to ensure that Nitomortar EL is
thoroughly mixed to produce a fully homogeneous
trowellable mortar.

Curing
Curing protection is not necessary for Nitomortar EL.

Storage
Shelf life
All products have a shelf life of 12 months at 30oC if kept
in a dry store in the original, unopened bags or packs.
Storage conditions
Store in dry conditions in the original, unopened bags or
packs. If stored at high temperatures and/or high humidity
conditions the shelf life may be reduced to 4 to 6 months.
Precautions
Cleaning
Nitomortar EL and Nitoprime 28 should be removed from
tools, equipment and mixers with Fosroc Solvent 102
immediately after use.
Limitations
Do not mix part packs under any circumstances.
Nitomortar EL should not be exposed to moving water
during application. Expose to heavy rainfall prior to final
set may result in surface scour. If any doubt arises
concerning temperature or substrate condition, consult the
local Fosroc office.
Fire
Nitomortar EL is non-flammable. Nitoprime 28 and Fosroc
Solvent 102 are flammable. Keep away from sources of
ignition. No smoking. In the event of fire, extinguish with
CO2 or foam. Do not use a water jet.
