Epoxy Floor Coating System for Garage, Basement, and Cement

PRODUCT DATA SHEET

Epoxy-Coat is a Cycloaliphatic epoxy formulated for high build applications on concrete or wood floors. It will create a hard, tough film with abrasion resistance, chemical resistance with less yellowing than standard epoxies. Complies with all VOC and VOS regulations.

DRYING CHARACTERISTICS

Based on 70 degrees F surface and environment temperatures:
Surface dry for traffic- 24 hours
Surface dry for re-coat - 0-18 hours
Note: Color coats may be longer
Full Cure- 3 days


MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

Mix 2 parts "resin" to 1 part "hardener" by volume and mix with a jiffy type mixer
for 3 minutes, minimum. Refer to Epoxy-Coat mixing instructions for further details.


APPLICATION METHOD

Residential Applications: Recommended surface preparation is mechanical shotblasting/diamond grinding or Epoxy-Coat clean and prep solution. Squeegee and back roll with thin nap roller.

Commercial Applications: Recommended surface preparation is mechanical shotblasting or scarifying. Prolonged or frequent contact with the resin (Part A) may cause dermatitis, sensitization, or other allergic responses. Good industrial hygiene practices should be observed in working with these materials. Before using them, consult the applicable Material Safety Data Sheets for appropriate handling procedures and protective equipment.


STORAGE

Epoxy-Coat should be stored in tightly sealed containers at normal room temperatures. Color of the curing agent may darken during long-term storage, the extent of color formation depending on storage temperature and degree of exposure to air.


PRECAUTIONS

The curing agent (Part B) may cause chemical burns in eyes or on skin, sensitization or other allergic responses, and can cause respiratory irritation. In large quantities, uncontrolled mixing with epoxy resins can result in runaway exothermic reactions.

Caution: Non-skid additives should be used where slipperiness may be a problem.
