Applications

The 5500 HHH Extra Slow Set is suitable for:

Decorative concrete floor finishes.
Industrial, commercial, and residential floor coatings.
Clear topcoats for color chips and quartz.
Kitchen floors, slabs, stairs, and pedestrian walkways.
Exterior applications requiring UV stability.

Preparation

Concrete Curing: Ensure a minimum 28-day cure.
Surface Cleaning: Remove contaminants, such as oils, wax, and curing agents.
Profile Creation: Abrade the surface to create a rough profile (2-3 mils, ASTM D4259).
Moisture Testing: Ensure moisture vapor transmission (MVT) does not exceed 3 lbs per 1,000 sq ft per 24 hours.

Priming

Self-Priming: Can be applied directly to concrete.
Optional Primers: Use ASTC’s 6000 Series Epoxy Primer, 70001 Pen Prime, or 8000 CMW for enhanced performance.

Application Guidelines

Mixing:
- Combine components A and B at a 1:1 ratio using a jiffy mixer.
- Mix for 1-2 minutes without incorporating air.
- Add pigments if required, ensuring uniform dispersion.

Coating:
- Apply with a notched squeegee and back-roll with a 1/4”-3/8” nap roller.
- Maintain thin coats (5-10 mils) for optimal results.
Recoat Timing:
- Recoat within 4-6 hours or after light sanding if exceeded.

Special Considerations

Cold Conditions: Slower curing below 50°F; for faster results, use 5500 F or EX.
Hot Conditions: Use HH or HHH versions for high-temperature, high-humidity environments.
Chemical Resistance: Resists a wide range of chemicals, including acids, ethanol, and motor oil.

Limitations

Avoid application on wet surfaces or in environments with high moisture vapor drive.
Store kits in a cool, dry environment away from sunlight.
For professional applicators only. Refer to the MSDS before use.
