Description
EPOXITE DRYMAX WET is an extremely powerful, transparent, 2 component solvent free epoxy waterproofing hardener - primer and varnish. It exhibits high scrub resistance and superior hardness. It is highly resistant to water, acids, alkalis, petroleum based products etc. It is suitable for waterproofing, strengthening and protecting concrete and most common building surfaces.
ADVANTAGES
- Excellent adhesion and very high penetration capacity on porous substrates
- Full surface waterproofing
- Can be applied to damp areas
- Excellent substrate strengthening
- Dries fast and it does emit volatile organic compounds (for non well ventilated spaces)
- Suitable for interior or exterior use
- Easy application
APPLICATIONS
- Waterproofing and priming concrete surfaces before applying epoxy and polyurethane coatings or self-leveling compounds.
- Waterproofing (moisture barrier) and priming concrete surfaces before applying polyurethane or epoxy parquet adhesives.
- Application as a final coat on cement screeds - concrete for strengthening and stabilizing the surface in order to avoid dust formation.

Instructions for use
Surface preparation
- Surfaces should be clean and free of dust, oil and friable residues.
- It is essential that the surface is free of dust prior application, so a high absorption vacuum cleaner should be used.
- New cement screeds should be preferably allowed to harden for at least 28 days.
Mixing
- Α (resin) and Β (hardener) components are already packed in separate containers with a preset mixing ratio1 : 1. Any modification of the mixing ratio will result in improper polymerization of the mixture.
- Β component should be added completely in component A in quantities between 1 - 2kg final mixture.
- The two components should be mixed for about 2 – 3 minutes by slow agitation.
- It is important to stir the mixture thoroughly near the sides and the bottom of the container in order to achieve uniform dispersion of the hardener.
- Apply immediately after mixing as the material can harden quickly. It is best to pour the liquid onto the surface and spread by roller or brush.
Application
- EPOXITE DRYMAX WET should be applied in a single coat using a roller or brush.
- A second coat may be applied on very porous substrates.
- Any cracks must be filled with epoxy putty EPOXITE CONSTUCT after curing.
- If a final coat - paint will be applied it must be done within 24 hours.
- If the surface will be recoated after 15 days from EPOXITE DRYMAX WET application, then the surface should be scrubbed with sandpaper and cleaned thoroughly before application.
Remarks
- The ideal temperature for applying epoxy coatings is between +15oC - +25oC. In lower temperatures (<+15oC) delayed hardening is observed while in higher temperatures (>+30oC) curing is accelerated. It is advised to store the product in room temperature between +15oC - +25oC in order to facilitate mixing.
- Bonding between successive layers may be severely affected by the intervention of moisture or dirt.
- Primed surfaces should be protected from moisture until dry. Moisture may induce unwanted effects during hardening. Discolored or sticky parts of the surface should be removed by grinding or milling and laid again.
- Before using the product consult the SAFETY DATA SHEET.
