Metallic Epoxy Resin4Decor User Manual
Surface Preparation
Concrete to be treated must be at least twelve weeks old, completely dry and free of surface laitance, contaminants and any previous poorly bonded coatings.
All traces of grease or oil should be removed with emulsifying degreasant and the area thoroughly washed off and allowed to dry.
Use Resi4Decor epoxy resin for primer coat.
Mixing
The ratio of Metallic Epoxy Resin4Decor is 100:50:6
Mix the following with a drill and mixing paddle.
Note: If using a drill mixer, use a low speed (not to exceed 300 rpm) to prevent air entrapment.
Premix Part A with Metallic Component for 7 mins. Allow to stand for minimum of 5-10 min to help escape any air mixed in.
Add Part B and mix for another 5 mins.
Metallic Epoxy Resin4DEcor is designed to be immediately poured on the floor. Leaving mixed product in the container will greatly reduce pot life. Once poured out on the floor, up to 45-60 mins of working time can generally be expected.
Application
Optimum ambient temperature should be between 15-25°C during application.
Note: Cure times are affected by ambient and slab temperatures. Temperatures of 15°C and lower can slow cure times. Temperatures of 25°C and higher will speed up working and times.
Apply at approximately 2 m2/kg by immediately pouring out blended material in a wavy ribbon while walking and pouring at the same time until bucket is empty.
Using a squeegee on a pole, pull Resin4Decor Metallic Epoxy over areas to be coated.
Using a 3/8” non-shedding phenolic (plastic) core paint roller, roll coating forwards and backwards.
The epoxy will flow and form it's own unique look on its own.
