QuakeBond™ UVC
- Chemical Family
- Acrylics & Acrylates
QuakeBond™ UVC is a waterborne acrylic coating developed for coating epoxy composites. The coating dries quickly to provide a tough, UV-resistant. It also exhibits excellent hide, hardness, and crosshatch adhesion. Its low VOC makes it a natural choice for factory applications and reduces exposure and flammability issues associated with solvent-borne coatings.

- Application
QuakeBond™ UVC can be applied using a sprayer, brush, or roller depending upon the application tools available.; Using any application method, to avoid mud cracking, do not use too much material on a single coating.; During the spray application, there should be approximately 6 to 12 inches between the tip of the spray gun and the substrate.; Adjust the spray gun valve so the gun is spraying a 6-inch fan, using minimal pressure.; A 50% overspray technique is recommended.; For optimal results, a dual coat program should be applied.; First, spray one coat horizontally across a section, and then complete the process next with a vertical spray direction.; Do not spray at high pressure as the mixture might dry before landing on the substrate.; It is acceptable practice to brush hard-to-reach areas after spraying.; Continue to agitate the coating during application.; Let each coat dry to the touch before applying a second layer.; Ensure proper coverage on edges, as during normal hydrolysis induced cure, the material may become thinner than expected.; Brush edges or corners before spraying the surface to ensure enough material is in contact with the substrate.
- Limitations
Do not apply to materials still in the curing process.; Do not apply to substrates at a temperature less than 50°F (10°C).

- Surface Preparation
Substrate surfaces must be structurally sound and free from contaminants such as dust, oil, and dirt.; Surfaces must be shot blasted, abrasively ground, hydro-blasted or mechanically abraded to achieve the required surface profile.; Freestanding water must be removed.
- Shelf Life Storage
Store product in original container in a dry location for up to 12 months at 77°F (25°C) or below.; If stored below 25°C, the material must be allowed to come to room temperature, in the sealed container, to avoid moisture contamination.; Material removed from containers may be contaminated during use.; Do not return the product to the original container.; QuakeWrap® cannot assume responsibility for the product which has been contaminated or stored under conditions other than those previously indicated.
- Application Equipment
An industrial paint sprayer may be used for larger applications.; A paint roller is used for touch-ups, repair, and smaller applications.
