How to Apply Terramix (Terrazzo Cast On) On Floor: Terrazzo Floor Process

When working with Terramix, the terrazzo cast-on process becomes smoother, faster, and more consistent. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how to install a terrazzo floor using Terramix, from preparation to final coating.

A. Preparation Stage

Before starting, it’s essential to ensure a clean and solid foundation for optimal bonding and long-lasting results:

1. Concrete Strength: Make sure the concrete base has a minimum strength of K-300.

    2. Surface Cleaning: Clear the surface of any dirt, oil, wax, or other residues that may prevent proper bonding.

      3. Bonding Agent Application

      • Prepare MU 400 or MU 480 bonding agent.
      • Apply a layer of bonding agent onto the concrete slab to ensure adhesion with the Terramix mixture.
      • Mix the bonding agent with water following the recommended ratio on the packaging.

      4. Terramix & White Cement Mixing

      • Mix 1 sack of Terramix (consisting of both powder and aggregate) with 13 kg of white cement.
      • Alternatively, use a ratio of 3 sacks of Terramix to 1 sack of 40 kg white cement.
      • Add 3–4 liters of water.
      • Use a mixer for a thorough and consistent blend (a mixer is highly recommended).

      B. Installation Process

      Terramix application involves three phases: pouring, drying, and finishing.

      1. Pouring the Mixture

      • Pour the Terramix and white cement mixture over the prepared concrete area.
      • Level the mixture using a screed to achieve a uniform thickness of 3 cm.
      • Compact the surface with a wooden trowel to eliminate air pockets.
      • Re-level and smoothen the surface using a steel trowel for a clean, even finish.

      2. Drying and Curing

      • Let the terrazzo floor dry halfway.
      • Use a damp paint roller to gently remove the topmost smooth layer, exposing the aggregate texture beneath.
      • Clean the surface with a sponge.
        • For brushed finishes, let it dry for at least 1 day.
        • For polished finishes, allow a minimum of 10 days of drying time.
      • After drying, perform polishing using a brush or a buffing machine to bring out the natural shine of the aggregate.

      3. Final Finishing

      • Thoroughly clean the entire floor area.
      • Evenly apply a protective coating such as Ishinol or CP27 for long-term durability and an enhanced look.
