Explain when a two-component resin moisture-mitigation membrane under ASTM F3010 is an appropriate remedy after a failed moisture test

Steps
Confirm the substrate is concrete, not gypsum-based — ASTM F3010-covered membrane systems are explicitly not intended for gypsum-based or other moisture-sensitive substrates per the standard's scope
Review the prior RH (F2170) or CaCl (F1869) test result that triggered consideration of a mitigation system
Explain that F3010 covers the properties, application, and performance of two-component resin membrane systems applied to high-moisture concrete substrates before resilient flooring installation
Confirm the concrete surface prep steps required ahead of membrane application, cross-referencing manufacturer product data sheets since the ASTM practice itself is paywalled
Verify the specific membrane product's warranty and moisture-level claims directly with the manufacturer, since ASTM F3010 is a practice/process standard, not a certification of any single product
Recommend re-testing per the original method after membrane cure to confirm the mitigation was effective, per manufacturer instructions
Known gotchas
Never apply an F3010-type membrane over gypsum-based underlayment — the standard's own scope excludes this substrate
The ASTM practice does not certify specific brands; product-specific moisture thresholds and warranty terms come from the membrane manufacturer, not the standard
A mitigation membrane changes the substrate chemistry; always confirm the flooring/adhesive manufacturer's warranty terms still apply after using one, since some flooring warranties treat mitigation systems as a warranty carve-out
