- Film Thickness
- CPP Gel can be applied as a single coat or multi-coat system.
- It can be feather-edged from a low mil thicknes (almost transparent) to a high build barrier liner of 1.5" (inches) thick without sag.
- Theoretical Coverage
- CPP Gel is 100% solid and will not shrink.
- Therefore, the theoretical coverage properties between wet film thickness (WFT) and dry film thickness (DFT) are the same.
- Twenty-six (26) square feet (sq.ft.) per gallon (gal.) at 1/16 inch (62.5 mils) thick.
- One gallon of neat CPP GelT yields 231 cu.in. of epoxy.
- Application Method
- CPP Gel must be applied by trowel or spatula.
- Part A paste must be mix with Part B paste, recommended to do so on a mixing board, until both parts become one homogenous color.
- CPP Gel is self-priming.
Adhesive:
- Apply to both bonding surfaces with spatula, trowel, or caulking gun.
- Join material.
- If necessary, clamp until cured.
- Strike off excess material.
Anchoring Bolts:
- Vertical and overhead.
- Partially fill drill hole with CPP GelT It is permissible for the hole to be damp (remove excess water), however, the bolt must be dry.
- Work bolt in and out to compact the paste.
- Secure with templates.
- With bolt in position fill in the remaining void.
Repair Patching Filling:
- Vertical and horizontal surfaces.
- Apply to area with trowel, spatula, or caulking gun.
- Work in at a maximum 1.5" per coat.
- Thinning
CPP™ Gel™ Cannot be thinned.
- Surface Preparation
- The success of any coating application is directly proportional to the completeness of the substrate preparation and the care the application crew puts into the application.
- Surface must be clean and sound.
- Remove all dust, contaminants, grease curing compounds, rust, impregnation, waxes foreign particles, and disintegrated materials from the surface, in order to achieve a clean and profiled surface.
Concrete:
- Prepare the concrete by abrasive blasting and/or high-pressure water cleaning and/or approved mechanical methods.
Wood:
- Remove all loose particles, rot, and soft spots.
- The area to be coated should be sanded and rinsed.
- Allow time to dry thoroughly.
Steel:
- Before preparing steel, please inspect and remove oil, grease, or other contaminants - "Solvent Cleaning" (SPC SP1) may be required.
- Remove all sharp peaks, including weld spatter mechanical methods) must be used in order to achieve a clean surface with a minimum profile of 3 mils.
- To prevent flash rusting, consider the use of an Epoxytec recommended primer.
- Mixing
- 1 Part "A" to 1 Part "B" Mix both parts together until a smooth consistent gray paste is formed without streaks or lumps.
- This product must be applied within 30 - 40 minutes after mixing.
- This time frame can be extended at lower temperatures and reduced at higher.
- A heat lamp can be used to speed up the curing time if necessary.
