Mixing

Premix each component separately.; For color consistency, box all part A's. In a clean bucket, mix 2 parts A with 1 part B (by volume) of EC-11.; Mix thoroughly with a low speed (400-600 rpm) drill motor for 3-4 minutes.; Make sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the container during mixing.; After mixing is completed, remove material from container within 5 minutes, as epoxy will begin to generate heat.; Spread immediately onto the floor.; As product is spread out, you will have longer working time (10-15 minutes at 70°F).

Clean Up

Uncured material should be removed with soap and warm water.; Cured material should be removed mechanically or with an environmentally-safe solvent.

Coverage

Will vary depending on the mil thickness applied and the porosity and texture of the surface, but in general, EC-11 will cover approximately 300-600 square feet per gallon as a primer, coating or sealer.

Dry Time

You may re-coat as soon as the surface is dry to the touch in 1 to 4 hours, but no later than 24 hours.; Light foot traffic may be permitted in 6 hours, normal traffic in 24 hours and vehicle traffic in 72 hours.; All times are based on average temperature of 70F degrees and 50% humidity.; Cooler temperatures will increase drying time.

Moisture

All concrete should be tested for moisture before applying a seamless coating.. If moisture emissions exceed 5 lbs/1000 square feet/24 hours (ASTM F1869) or if the relative humidity (RH) exceeds 75% (ASTM F2170), contact the manufacturer before application.

Pot Life
60 - 90 minutes (Gel Time, 150gm, 72°F)
Thinning
  • Thin with water, up to 50%
  • Amount will vary depending on use.
PACKAGING
1.5 gal & 15 gal kits available.
Advantages
  • USDA/FDA Compliant
  • Water based
  • Moisture Tolerant
  • Chemical Resistant
  • Long Pot Life
  • Medium Gloss
  • Very Durable
  • Easy to Use
Inspection

The surface must be structurally sound, clean, dry and free of grease, paint, oil, dust, curing agents, laitance or any foreign material that will prevent proper adhesion.; The concrete should be at least 2,500 PSI and porous or rough enough to allow the product to soak in.; A minimum of 28 days curing time is required on all concrete.; Prior to starting work, test existing concrete slab for efflorescence, moisture and hydrostatic pressure.
