SikaTile Level 025 Patch
If you're in need of a high-quality patching compound for your concrete surfaces, look no further than SikaLevel® 025 Patch. This fast-drying, self-curing, polymer-modified, cement-based compound rapidly develops high compressive strength. It's perfect for smoothing, leveling, patching, and filling cracks, holes, and voids in concrete and approved wood underlayments prior to the installation of floor coverings. From featheredge to ½”, floor coverings can be installed just one hour after application. Mix SikaLevel® 025 Patch with Sika® Latex R to use as an embossing leveler or patch over properly prepared vinyl sheet goods, vinyl composition tile (VCT), cement terrazzo, and residual cutback adhesive surfaces. Trust SikaLevel® 025 Patch for a durable and long-lasting patching solution.

Application Steps
MIXING
In a clean container, add approximately 3 quarts (2.85 liters) of clean potable water. Then add the contents of the 25 lb. (11.34 kg) bag of SikaLevel® 025 Patch. Mix thoroughly by hand or with a slow-speed mixer (300 rpm or less) to a smooth, lump-free consistency. Avoid air entrapment and prolonged mixing which will shorten pot life. Do not overwater. Mix only enough SikaLevel® 025 Patch that can be used in 20 minutes. During use, stir mix occasionally. Do not add additional water.
APPLICATION
Read all installation instructions before installation. Apply the mixed SikaLevel® 025 Patch immediately by using a flat-edged trowel to force the initial coat into the substrate. Finish SikaLevel® 025 Patch to the desired thickness and smoothness. Avoid excessive heat or drafty conditions during the curing period. Use water on the trowel to make the finishing of the mixture easier but do not over the trowel. If the material becomes too stiff to work, discard it. Drying time is 30 to 60 minutes depending on ambient temperature and thickness. Any ridges or unevenness left in the patch can be scraped smooth with the clean flat edge of a trowel or sanded after a hard set.
CLEANING OF TOOLS
Clean tools and tiles with water before the material dries.
