Surface preparation

1. Surfaces should be dry and clean from dust and any oily residues. Dust, oil, humidity or rust, seriously affect the coatingÄôs adhesion.
2. Loose substrates of concrete and screeds are not suitable for painting as the coat will peel.
3. New surfaces of concrete or cement mortar should be painted one month after construction.
4. Surfaces already painted must be completely cleaned with chemical or mechanical means and sanded to a smooth finish.
5. The wet surface must be allowed to dry for at least 3 Äì 5 days prior to the paint application.

Priming

Prime surfaces with EPOXITE DUR primer.

Application

1. Components Α (resin) and Β (hardener) are already packed in separate containers with a preset mixing ratio. Any modification of the mixing ratio will result in improper polymerization of the mixture.
2. Mix the 2 components after careful mix of each component separately.
3. 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.
4. Imperfect mixing will result in uneven curing of the coating with parts that will not cure at all.
5. After mixing of the two components allow 10 Äì 15 minutes and then apply the coating as is or diluted up to 5% with polyurethane solvent.
6. Application is done with a brush, roller or spray gun in two or three coats.
7. The paint obtains its final properties 7 – 10 days after the application of the finishing coat.

REMARKS

• PREMIUM FLOOR PAINT contains solvents and during application good ventilation of the space should be ensured.
• It is advisable the use of 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 15 days, the surface must be sanded with coarse sandpaper and dust must be removed.
• Curing as well as pot Äì life are affected by ambient temperature and humidity. Low temperatures and high humidity tend to increase pot Äì life while high temperatures and low humidity shorten the pot life.
• Before using PREMIUM FLOOR PAINT 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

LEAD STATEMENT

WARNING: Treatment of old surfaces such as dry sanding, flame cutting and/or welding of the dry paint film will give rise to dust and/or hazardous fumes. Lead dust may be released. Lead is toxic. Exposure to lead dust can cause serious illness. Wet sanding/flatting should be used wherever possible. If exposure cannot be avoided by the provision of local exhaust ventilation, suitable respiratory protective equipment should be used.
