5. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

5.1. PREPARATION

THE PERFORMANCE OF THE COATING CAN BE SERIOUSLY IMPAIRED IF THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT STRICTLY ADHERED TO. IT IS CRUCIAL THAT THE SUBSTRATE IS SOUND.

Do not apply in temperatures below 10 °C/50 °F and ensure there is at least a 4 hour weather window.  We do not recommend application late in the day, due to dropping temperatures and increased humidity.

Although Epoxy Coating Heavy Duty will overcoat most other finishes and paints, the best results are achieved when surfaces are clean and free of other finishes/coatings. If applying over an existing coating or to a non-porous surface, mechanically sand the area to create a key.

All surfaces should be dry. Particular attention should be made to degreasing surfaces before application. All voids and surface imperfections must be carefully filled.

Clean the surface you will be applying the Epoxy Coating Heavy Duty to. If there are any leaks, these should be repaired with Antel Waterstop or Antel Epoxy Putty before applying the Epoxy Coating Heavy Duty. If unsure, please contact us for technical advice.

The pot life is approximately 45 minutes.  This is based on a temperature of 20 °C/68 °F.  If you are applying the coating in higher temperatures, the pot life may be reduced.  The material will become unworkable once outside of this pot life.

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

 

5.2. MIXING

For simplicity we would recommend using a separate pack of Epoxy Coating Heavy Duty for each coat, however if you would like to use one pack for both coats, you will need to accurately divide the A and B packs proportionately using digital scales.

1. Mix the A Pack thoroughly on a slow speed.

2. Mix the B Pack thoroughly on a slow speed.

3. Pour the contents of the B Pack into the larger A Pack.

4. Mix again thoroughly (ideally with a mixer paddle) for a minimum of three minutes, so that the two components are completely mixed. 

5. Pour into at least one roller tray to maintain pot life.

6. Start application immediately.

 

5.3. APPLICATION STEPS

1. Apply the first coat by short pile roller or brush.

2. Wait 24 hours before applying the second coat. Reduced time between coats maybe possible, but it’s very important to seek technical advice from Antel before attempting this.

3. Within a maximum period of 48 hours, apply the second coat.

6. PACKAGING AND COVERAGE
Antel’s Epoxy Coating Heavy Duty is available in 1kg, 2.5kg and 5kg packs. Coverage is 15-20m2/5kg.
