How to Apply
Preparation: Concrete and Brick
Concrete to be treated must be dry, at least four weeks old and free of any soft surface laitance, or contamination All loose material should be removed. Very smooth bare concrete or concrete with soft surface laitance should be etched with Watco Cemtetch and the area thoroughly hosed off and allowed to dry. Grease or oil should be removed with Watco Bio-D (or similar degreaser) and the area thoroughly hosed off and allowed to dry. Very smooth previously painted surface should preferably be abraded to improve adhesion.
Preparation: Steel
Remove loose or flaking material, rust and any previous coatings by wire brushing or disc grinding to achieve a bright surface. Grease or oil should be removed with Watco Bio-D and the metal then washed with water and allowed to dry. Coating should be carried out immediately providing flash rusting has not occurred.
Mixing
Each Epoxicote High Build kit consists of a container of curing agent and a container of resin. The curing agent and resin must be thoroughly mixed together with a paint mixer attached to an electric drill for 2 to 3 minutes until an even color is obtained. Do not mix more than one unit at a time.
Application
Epoxicote High Build: Best results are obtained in warm conditions (minimum 60°F). On horizontal surfaces apply by medium pile type roller (not foam) in one coat.
