CURING
As soon as the grouting is completed, it should
be cured immediately. Suitable curing such as
membrane or plastic sheet should be used to
protect freshly applied ARMORGROUT-70.
Curing should continue for 7 days after pouring.
Free water should be removed before pouring
and the grout should be poured continuously so
as to ensure air is not trapped.
