Epoxy Base Coat - Standard Transparent 100% Solids (3 Gallon Kit) (PE-100)
Regular price
$220.00
PE-100 is a solvent-less, two component epoxy coating system. It exhibits very good appearance and chemical and physical properties.
ADVANTAGES
- Dense surface resistant to bacteria and moisture and easy to clean.
- May apply several layers on itself with excellent adhesion.
- Contains no solvent with a very low VOC content (VOC = 75.4 g/L), allowing for interior application without harmful odors.
- Excellent adhesive properties, allowing application on other firm and hard coating, as well as a good bond to the substrate.

SURFACE PREPARATION
Old concrete
Concrete surface must be cleaned. BLASTRAC, sand blasting, diamond grinder w/30 grit or coarse, or water blasting is highly recommended to remove surface contaminates. Any oils and fats must be removed prior to product application. Acid etching may be required (followed by a thorough rinsing) to open the pores of the concrete to accept a primer. Do not apply to wet substrates. Chloride, moisture, and pH levels should be checked prior to application. In almost every application a primer is recommended prior to use of PE-100.

New concrete
The concrete should be allowed to cure for a minimum of 30 days. Compression resistance of concrete must be at least 25 MPa (3625 lb/inch2) after 28 days and traction resistance must be at least 1,5 MPa (218 lb/in2). BLASTRAC, sand blasting, diamond grinder w/30 grit or coarser or acid etching (followed by a thorough rinsing) is required to remove the surface laitance that appeared during the curing process. A primer should be used to reduce out-gassing and promote adhesion.
MIXING
Materials should be pre-conditioned to a minimum of 50°F (10°C) prior to use. Thoroughly mix each component separately. Pour component B into component A using the proper mixing ratio of 2A:1B by volume. Mix both components for at least 1 minute using a drill at low revolution (300 to 450 rpm) to reduce trapping of air. While mixing, scrape bottom and walls of container at least once to ensure a homogeneous mix. Only prepare quantity that may be applied during pot life of mixture.

APPLICATION
Apply mixed product on the prepared surface tightly (thin film) using a rubber rake and pass a roller to obtain a uniform coating. Avoid creating puddles.

CLEANING
Clean all tools and materials with the cleaner/thinner for epoxies. Wash hands and skin carefully with warm soapy water. Once product has hardened, it may only be removed through mechanical means.

RESTRICTIONS
- Minimum/Maximum temperature of substrate: 50°F / 86°F (10°C / 30°C)
- Maximum relative humidity during application and curing: 85 %
- Substrate temperature must be 5.5°F (3°C) above dew point measured
- Humidity content of substrate must be < 4 % when coating is applied
- Do not apply on porous surfaces where a transfer of humidity may occur during application
- Avoid exterior use on substrates at ground level
- Protect from humidity, condensation and contact with water during the 24 hour initial curing period
- Surface may discolor in areas exposed to regular ultraviolet light
HEALTH AND SAFETY
In case of skin contact, wash with water and soap. In case of eye contact, immediately rinse with water for at least 15 minutes. Consult with a doctor. For respiratory problems, transport victim to fresh air. Remove contaminated clothes and clean before reuse.
