Unique Characteristics

• Outstanding adhesion to wet concrete and steel.
• Smooth, glossy, tack-free cured finish.
• Exceptional corrosion protection.
• Moisture-blocking primer rated at 15-18 psi.
• Temperature range: 35°F to 125°F (air and surface) and 5°F above the dew point.

Advantages

• 100% solids for durable performance.
• Cures to a clear, cross-linking finish.
• High stain resistance to most tires (plasticizer migration).
• Exceptional chemical and corrosion resistance.
• Excellent abrasion resistance.
• Highly adhesive with a bond strength of 520 psi.
• Mild odor, making it suitable for interior applications.

Applications

• Decorative concrete floor finishes.
• Industrial, commercial, and residential floor coatings.
• Kitchen floor sealing and finishing.
• Slabs, stairs, and pedestrian walkways.
• Base coat for secondary containment coatings.
• Protective and attractive color coatings for damp and wet conditions.

Preparation

1. Concrete Curing: Ensure a minimum 28-day cure.
2. Surface Cleaning: Remove contaminants, curing agents, and old coatings.
3. Profile Creation: Abrade the surface to create a rough profile of at least 2-3 mils (ASTM D4259).
4. Moisture Testing: Conduct a moisture vapor test before application.

Priming

• Self-Priming: Directly adheres to concrete.
• Compatible with 6000 Series Epoxy Primers, 70001 Pen Prime, and 8000 CMW.

Moisture Vapor Reduction

• Use ASTC’s CMW to reduce moisture vapor drive.
• Suitable for substrates with moisture vapor transmission rates of up to 3 lbs/1,000 sq ft/24 hrs.
• For higher vapor levels (up to 18 psi), use 6007 Nova Bar Epoxy Primer.

Application Guidelines

1. Mixing:
   • Mix parts A and B using a jiffy mixer and drill motor.
   • Avoid entrapping air and ensure complete mixing.
2. Coating:
   • Apply with a notched squeegee and back-roll with a 3/8” to 1/2” nap roller.
   • Recommended film thickness: 8-16 mils per coat.
   • Recoat after 8-10 hours or as soon as the first coat can be walked on.
   • Sand lightly if the recoat window is exceeded.

General Physical Characteristics

Special Considerations

• Cold Conditions: Slower curing below 50°F. Use the Fast Set version or accelerators for faster results.
• Hot Conditions: Accelerated curing above 85°F. Mix only what can be applied within 15-20 minutes.
• Chemical Resistance: Resists a wide range of chemicals, including acids, ethanol, and motor oil.

Limitations

• Avoid mixing in mass as the epoxy heats up faster.
• Do not apply to wet surfaces with standing water.
• Store kits on wood pallets at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.
• For professional applicators only. Refer to the MSDS before use.
