Surface Preparation:

The most suitable surface preparation would be a fine brush blast (shot blast) to remove all laitance and provide a suitable profile. All dirt, foreign contaminants, oil and laitance must be removed to assure a trouble free bond to the substrate. A test should be made to determine that the concrete is dry; this can be done by placing a 4’x4’ plastic sheet on the substrate and taping down the edges. If after 24 hours, the substrate is still dry below the plastic sheet, then the substrate is dry enough to start coating. The plastic sheet is also a good method to determine if any hydrostatic pressure problems exist that may later cause disbonding.

Product Mixing: 

This product has a mix ratio of 2.5 Parts A to 1 Part B (by volume). After the two parts are combined, mix well with slow speed mixing equipment such as a jiffy mixer until the material is thoroughly mixed and streak free. The material is now ready to be applied on the substrate.

Product Application: 

The mixed material can be applied by brush, roller or spray. However, the material can also be applied by a suitable serrated squeegee and then back rolled as long as the appropriate thickness recommendations are maintained. Maintain temperatures and relative humidity within the recommended ranges during the application and curing process.

Recoat or Topcoating: This product is not color stable and a topcoat should be used. Many topcoats are suitable for placement over this coating including both urethanes and epoxies. When topcoating this product, you must first be sure that the coating has tacked off before topcoating. Always remember that colder temperatures will require more cure time for the product before topcoating can commence. Before topcoating, check the coating to verify no epoxy blushes were developed (a whitish, greasy film or deglossing). If a blush is present, it must be removed prior to topcoating. A standard type detergent cleaner can be used to remove any blush. Many epoxy coatings and urethanes are compatible for use as a topcoat for this product as well as multiple coats of this product as an intermediate build coat.

Clean Up:

Use xylol

Floor Cleaning:

Caution! Some cleaners may affect the color of the floor installed. Test each cleaner in a small area, utilizing your cleaning technique. If no ill effects are noted, you can continue to clean with the product and process tested.

Restrictions:

Restrict the use of the floor to light traffic and non-harsh chemicals until the coating is fully cured (see technical data under full cure). It is best to let the floor remain dry for the full cure cycle.

Store product in an area so as to bring the material to normal room temperature before using. Continuous storage should be between 60° and 90°F. Low temperatures or great temperature fluctuations may cause product crystallization.
