Technical Data

1. DESCRIPTION

Antel Epoxy ClearCoat Resin is a clear, high gloss, two part epoxy coating with a high level of resistance to UV, substantially reducing the amount of yellowing that occurs when compared with other epoxy products. Epoxy ClearCoat Resin is very hardwearing, resistant to chemicals and compatible with most solvent free paint types.

 

2. USES

Antel Epoxy ClearCoat Resin can be used virtually anywhere that requires a clear, hard-wearing coating. Some of its popular uses are below:

  • Penny floors
  • Sealing bar tops and tables
  • Decorative glossy finishes and effects
  • Sealing polished concrete

 

3. PACKAGING

1kg & 3kg.

 

4. COVERAGE

This is highly dependent on the application thickness.  Please see the below table to work out the coverage for your application usage:

 

Application Thickness

Estimated Coverage

0.1mm

10 m²/kg

0.25mm

4 m²/kg

0.5mm

2 m²/kg

1mm

1 m²/kg

2mm

0.5 m²/kg

 

Multiple coats are required for thicknesses above 2mm.

 

5. PREPARATION

For surfaces that are already painted, make good the surface and then sand and clean the existing paint or coating to ensure a sound base.  Particular attention should be made to degreasing surfaces before application.

 

Do not use any PVA coating on the substrate prior to application, as this will result in the paint peeling off. 

 

All voids and surface imperfections must be carefully filled.

 

 

6. MIXING

If splitting packs into smaller quantities, this must be carried out accurately using digital scales.

 

  1. Pour the entire contents of the smaller container, marked ‘B Pack’ into the larger container making sure to scrape out as much as possible.

  2. Mix thoroughly, using a drill and paddle on a slow speed. Once combined, mix for a further 2-3 minutes on a slow speed to ensure complete uniformity.

  3. Pour into at least two roller trays to maintain pot life and dissipate heat.

 

The coating is now ready to apply immediately to the prepared areas.

 

7. APPLICATION

 

  • Do not apply in temperatures below 10 °C.

  • The pot life for this coating is 45 minutes at 20°C.  Warmer temperatures will reduce the pot life of the coating, which is why we recommend application takes place mid-morning when being used outdoors.

  • When being applied outdoors, ensure there is at least a day of dry weather before starting application.

 

  • Once mixed, it is only possible to apply a single coat. Do not attempt to return to the mix to apply a second coat.

 

  • Use a plum line when applying over a large area to ensure no spots are missed.

 

  • Apply using a foam roller, fine pile roller or notched trowel/squeegee depending on the desired application thickness

 

  • After applying, wait 3-7 days (depending on temperature) before heavy traffic.

 

8. DRYING & CURING

At 20 °C, and with reasonable ventilation, the coating is touch dry in 8 hours and hard dry in 12 hours. Maximum cure, hardness and chemical resistance is obtained within 7 days.

10. STORAGE

Store in a cool, dry and frost free area in original containers. Protect from freezing. Keep out of the reach of children. A shelf life in excess of 12 months can be expected for unopened containers kept in the above conditions.

 

11. CLEANING EQUIPMENT

When using spray equipment a thorough rinsing with cold water every hour will prevent a buildup of cured material. Brushes and rollers should be washed with cold water and detergent and rinsed thoroughly in cold water. 

 

Application equipment used to apply the 3rd Clear Sealer Coat should not be cleaned with water, but simply allowed to cure/harden and then disposed of.

 

12. HEALTH & SAFETY

Antel Epoxy ClearCoat Resin is much safer to handle than other resin systems; however, it is recommended that all skin contact is avoided and that if contact is made, are washed immediately with soap and warm water. It is advisable to use a barrier cream and gloves when applying.

Mr Ian R purchased our Epoxy ClearCoat

I have given the patio 2 coats of the Epoxy coating you supplied to me.
I had just enough to do this.
I am very happy… the small stones are now bonded together, and another coat would be too much as I would loose the grip on the patio that the children play on.
Thanks for your help and advice on selecting the right product.

Mr Ross J

Just wanted to say thanks for helping me out with the resin products, it was the perfect quantity and looks great.
