7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

7.1 Preparation:
Surfaces must be dry and free from all foreign matter such as dust, grease, and dirt etc. Weak laitance and loose or flaking paint must be removed by wire brushing. Cleaning is imperative and best results can be obtained by using the appropriate Antel cleaner.

7.2 Mixing:
Empty the entire contents of Pack ‘B’ into Pack ‘A’ and mix thoroughly. Mixing should be carried out by a slow speed mechanical stirrer, or by hand using a flat bar paint mixer. Stirring should continue until a complete mix is achieved.

7.3 Application:
For vertical and soffit surfaces use the VERTICAL grade. In all other situations use the STANDARD grade.

As a primer for Antel Epoxy Mortar and Patching Mortar use as follows:-
Apply by brush immediately after mixing, working well into the surface and taking care not to form pools. Do not prime an area larger than can be dealt with in two hours. Should the primer be allowed to harden, a fresh application must be carried out before the appropriate mortar is applied. It may be necessary, when priming extremely porous surfaces, to apply a second coat after the first coat has become touch dry.

As a general adhesive use as follows:-
Apply by brush immediately after mixing. Materials to be bonded should be held firmly until the adhesive has hardened - approximately between 12 - 24 hours, dependent upon the temperature.

7.4 Curing:
Pot life when mixed is 30 minutes to 2 hours. Tough hard in 12 - 24 hours. Full cure is achieved in about 7 days - dependent upon the temperature. These curing times apply to both the standard and vertical grades.

7.5 Cleaning Tools:
Wash tools immediately after use with Antel Cleaning Solvent.
