Application Information
Instructions for use

Surface preparation

The concrete must be at least 28 days old. The concrete must be free from loose matter, oil and dirt before starting surface preparation.
The best method to prepare the surface is dry grinding using a specialized planetary grinder. Before grinding, the surface must be free from any degreasing or cleaning chemicals which may have been used. At the end of grinding, the surface should be flat.
Surface irregularities and blow holes shall be repaired with EPOFINISH IF.
When the filler is hardened, grinding and leveling of the patched area is recommended to ensure a good finish.
Ensure dust is removed from the surface using an industrial vacuum.
For best finish and adhesion, treat the surface with PRIMER POXY IF. In case the surface is very absorbent, apply a second coat of primer within the allowed recoating time.

Application Thickness

A thickness of 2-4mm per coat over a primer is recommended.

Items Needed

  • Multi-speed drill fitted with a mixing paddle
  • Good quality medium haired non-shedding roller, suitable for epoxy application. Ensure that all loose hairs on the roller have been removed before use
  • 7” Screed rake
  • Spike roll and spike shoes
  • Clean bucket, 2” brush and SOLVENTE 10 to clean the equipment

Method

Adjust the rake to the desired thickness.

Using a drill and a paddle at low speed, stir the resin (Component A) for 1 min.  Slowly add the hardener (Component B) and increase mixing speed. Mix for 1-2 minutes, ensuring proper mixing between both components A & B.

Slowly add the sand (Component C) and increase mixing speed. Mix for 1-2 minutes till a homogeneous streak free product is obtained.
Pour the mix onto the floor immediately and spread using the rake. After about 5 minutes use the spike roll to remove all entrapped air.

Cleaning

Clean equipment with SOLVENTE 10. In case of spillage, use fine silica or cement to absorb the spill and dispose of according to local regulations.

Components

  • EPOFLOOR SL (IFT) contains resin (Component A), hardener (Component B) and Silica Sand (Component C):
  • EPOFLOOR SL (IFT) resin (Component A) is a low viscosity standard coloured base which contains fillers and pigments.  
  • EPOFLOOR SL (IFT) hardener (Component B) is a low viscosity and low color hardener which, after mixing with the resin, is less-yellowing and can be applied at 75% humidity. The hardener provides excellent chemical and abrasion resistance.
  • EPOFLOOR SL (IFT) Component C is a graded low dusting silica sand.
