HOW TO APPLY

MIXING

Mix material when air temperatures is between 60-90°F Combine the base and activator by power mixing. Mix at 500-750 rpm for 2-3 minutes. Do not over mix or use higher speeds. This can introduce air into the coating causing small bubbles in the finish. It is very important to transfer as much activator as possible, scrape the sides and bottom of the container thoroughly.

Mix the two components together for 2-3 minutes being careful to not pull air into the mixture. Once mixed, immediately pour the material onto the floor. NOTE: Do not scrape the sides or bottom of the mixed container. Use only the material that flows naturally out of the container. Doing so may result with un-activated material from the side wall of the container being applied. This will cause soft spots in the coating

APPLICATION

Apply only when air, material and floor temperatures are between 60-90°F. Because of the short pot life, it is recommended the application of the coating be limited to small sections. One activated gallon of High Build 100 will cover 100 square feet at 16 mils.This can be achieved with a single coat application, however, on bare concrete there is a risk of out gassing from small pinholes and voids in the concrete during the curing of the coating which will form out gas bubbles in the finish.

To greatly reduce the risk of out gas bubbles we recommend that bare concrete be first primed with either the 4-Hour Epoxy Primer or the Powerfloat Base Coat . Refer to the Technical Data Sheet for the primer for more information and application instructions.After the primer has cured, mark off the floor into 100 square foot sections. Coating this area with one gallon of activated High Build Epoxy 100 will yield a film thickness of 16 mils. On previously coated floors where out gassing is not a problem, the High Build Epoxy System can be applied directly to the floor in a single coat application of 16 mils.

Mark out the floor into 100 square foot sections for coverage with one gallon of activated material. After pouring the material onto the floor, use a rubber squeegee to spread the material out over the entire section. Roll the material smooth using a short nap (3/16-3/8") lint free roller with a phenolic core. Make all final passes parallel and in the same direction. Do not roll excessively and do not re-roll the material after the final passes are made. Doing so may result in color variations. Working time is 20 minutes.

SURFACE PREPARATION

The concrete surface must be clean, dry and free of loose material. New concrete should be allowed to cure for 28 days prior to coating. Remove oil, dirt, grease and other chemical contaminants by cleaning with detergent or other suitable cleaner. Rinse thoroughly.

Use Cemtetch® to remove unsound laitance and create a proper surface profile to the concrete. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry before application of the High Build Epoxy 100 Anti Slip.Concrete to be treated must be dry, at least four weeks old and free of any soft surface laitance, contaminants, and not subject to rising damp. All loose material should be removed.Sanding or mechanical abrading may be required if proper adhesion does not develop. Previously coated floors need to be in good sound condition with proper adhesion to the concrete substrate.

Check the adhesion of the previous coating by cutting a small X in the coating using a sharp razor knife, firmly apply a piece of 2" duct tape over the center of the X cut, then pull off with a fast snap. The coating is suitable to topcoat if no significant previous coating is removed beyond the X cut. If the coating fails this test, then additional surface preparation is required. It is recommended previously coated floors be sanded and vacuumed prior to application of the High Build Epoxy 100.
