Instructions for use
Surface preparation
- Surfaces should be clean from dust and any oily residues. Dust, oil, or rust, seriously affect the coating’s adhesion.
- Substrate’s moisture content should be <5%.
- Atmospheric humidity must be less than 60%.
- Loose concrete substrates and screeds are not suitable for painting as the coat will peel.
- New concrete surfaces or cement mortar should be painted one month after construction.
- Old painted surfaces must be completely cleaned with chemical or mechanical means and sanded to a smooth finish.
- The wet surface must be allowed to dry for at least 3 - 5 days prior to the paint application.
Priming
Non-porous substrates should be primed with solvent-based 2-component epoxy primer, EPOXITE DUR, to ensure adhesion.
Solid and porous cement-based substrates can be primed with EPOXITE DUR or PREMIUM POLYURETHANE FLOOR PAINT 2K diluted up to 20% with polyurethane solvent (DIL X 100)
Surfaces with rising damp should be primed with 100% solids solvent free epoxy primer EPOXITE DRYMAX WET.
Steel and iron surfaces should be primed with an anti-osmosis & anticorrosive primer EPOXITE OSMOSE PRIMER for corrosion protection.
Application
- Components Α (resin) and Β (hardener) are already packed in separate containers with a preset mixing ratio of 4:1 by weight (100Α : 25Β). Any modification of the mixing ratio will result in improper polymerization of the mixture.
- Mix the 2 components after careful mix of each component separately. Stirring is done carefully for 3-5 minutes taking care to ensure thorough mixing of the two components on the walls and the bottom of the pail. Mixing can be done with a low-speed mixer (200-300rpm).
- Imperfect mixing will result in uneven curing of the coating with parts that will not cure at all.
- After mixing the two components let the mixture stand for 10 - 15 minutes and then apply the coating as is or diluted with DIL X 100 solvent up to 10% for roller and brush application and up to 20% for spray gun application.
- Application is done with a brush, roller, or spray gun in two or three coats.
- Each layer can be recoated after 12 hours in high temperatures and after 24 hours in low temperatures.
- Coated surfaces are walkable after 12 hours in high temperatures (30oC) and after 24 – 48 hours in low temperatures (15oC).
- The paint obtains its final properties 7 – 14 days after the application of the finishing coat.
REMARKS
- Application conditions: Substrate’s moisture: <4%, Surface’s and Ambient temperature: 12oC - 35oC, Relative Air Humidity: <70%.
- PREMIUM POLYURETHANE FLOOR PAINT 2K contains solvents and during application good ventilation of the space should be ensured.
- It is advisable to use protective clothing, gloves and mask with filter suitable for solvents.
- The coated surface should be protected from humidity for 36 - 48 hours.
- Should recoating be carried out after 48 hours, the surface must be sanded with coarse sandpaper and dust must be removed.
- Curing as well as pot life are affected by ambient temperature and humidity. Low temperatures and high humidity tend to increase pot life while high temperatures and low humidity shorten the pot life.
- Before using PREMIUM POLYURETHANE FLOOR PAINT 2K read carefully all instructions and information relevant to its safe and best use.
- Treatments such as sanding, welding, burning off, etc. of paint films may generate hazardous dust and/or fumes. Work in well ventilated areas. Use suitable personal (respiratory) protective equipment, as necessary.
- The substrate must be at least 3oC above dew point to reduce the risk of condensation or blooming on the paint’s finish.
