Topcoats

EpoxyGrip 2900 is normally topcoated with an epoxy finish such as EpoxyGrip 2000 or a urethane finish such as UreGrip 3900 or UreGrip 3000. EpoxyGrip 2900, like other epoxies, tends to chalk and amber when exposed to sunlight in a humid environment.

Resistance

EpoxyGrip 2900 is resistant to a wide range of chemicals in atmospheric exposures. The following is a guide to the proper selection.; NR=Not Recommended

Shelf LIfe

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

Substrates

EpoxyGrip 2900 is normally applied directly to steel as recommended. Substrate should be dry and free of debris and all contaminants. A blasted profile of the substrate is recommended for optimum EpoxyGrip 2900 performance.
