Permatec 4000

PERMATEC 4000 is a 100% solids, modified epoxy floor topping. The PERMATEC 4000 system consists of a two component resin binder and graded aggregate. It is applied with a trowel or screed rake at 1/8 -1/4 inches (125 - 250 mils) in a one coat application including a silica broadcast. There is no need for a primer or sealer coat. An optional glaze coat may be used to improve the appearance and cleanability. The vertical formulation of PERMATEC 4000 is trowel applied at 1/8 inches (125 mils).

Application Method
Trowel
Mixing

Prior to application, the PERMATEC 4000 (Resin, Hardener and Silica) and the substrate should be between 65°F and 90°F.; In order to maintain a clean mixer from batch to batch, the Resin (Part A) and a portion of the Silica (Part C) should be added to the mixer and agitated long enough to clean the blades.; Add the Hardener (Part B) only when the batch is ready to be applied.; Mix for approximately 30 seconds - 1 minute, then add the remainder of the Silica and mix for another 90 seconds.; Pour immediately onto the floor.

Safety

PERMATEC 4000 contains blended epoxies as the resin and blended amines as the hardener. Protective clothing and gloves are recommended to prevent sensitization to these materials. In case of ingestion or eye contact, it is advisable to contact a physician immediately.
