EpoxyGrip® 2000 VOC

EpoxyGrip® 2000 VOC is used as an intermediate or topcoat over zinc rich primers for highly corrosive environments. Where exterior color fastness is required EpoxyGrip 2000 VOC may be top-coated with polyurethane finishes. Used on structural steel, steel tanks, offshore platforms, barges, refineries, petrochemical plants, power plants, railcars, pulp & paper mills, masonry surfaces and other areas as recommended. EpoxyGrip 2000 VOC may be used as a surface tolerant single coat system in mild duty applications.

Topcoats

EpoxyGrip 2000 VOC, like other epoxies, tends to chalk and amber when exposed to sunlight in a humid environment. Urethane topcoats are recommended to control the erosion of the epoxy and maintain a colorfast system. UreGrip 3000 and UreGrip 3300 are recommended topcoat for EpoxyGrip 2000 VOC.

Shelf LIfe

2 years for both the Part A and B when stored inside at 40°F to 110°F.

Substrates

EpoxyGrip 2000 VOC can be applied over the following primers or directly to steel or concrete as recommended. EpoxyGrip 2000 VOC should be applied to cured ZincGard 1000 by thinning one pint/gallon with Reducer 2 and applying a mist coat approximately 3mils wet which seals the porous inorganic zinc. The mist coat is followed by another light coat to achieve the total desired film thickness. EpoxyGrip 2000 VOC is applied without a mist coat to ZincGard 1500, EpoxyGrip 2100 and MasticGrip 2500. Consult SSPC-PS Guide 8.00 for topcoating zinc-rich primers.
