Features & Benefits
- Mapecoat I 24 is a two-component epoxy-resin based paint with special pigments that provide excellent covering capability, prepared according to a formula developed in the Mapei Research Laboratories
- After drying completely, Mapecoat I 24 resists the aggressive action of acids, alkalis, salts, oils, hydrocarbons and solvents, as shown in Table 1 on the data sheet
- Resists frost, maintaining the appearance of the surface treated
Recommendations & Limitations
- Do not use Mapecoat I 24 on damp surfaces if Triblock P has not previously been applied
- Do not dilute Mapecoat I 24 with solvents or water
- Do not apply Mapecoat I 24 if rain is imminent
- Do not apply Mapecoat I 24 at temperatures below 5°C
- Do not apply Mapecoat I 24 on hot surfaces or surfaces exposed to direct sunlight
- During hot weather, before mixing the two parts, avoid their exposure to direct sun. It is recommended to store them for at least 24 hours at 10°C
- Do not apply Mapecoat I 24 on dusty or crumbly surfaces
- Do not apply Mapecoat I 24 on surfaces subject to rising damp (consult our Technical team on 0113 2455450 (option 2) or send a message to [email protected])
- Do not add Mapecolor Paste if the product is supplied ready-coloured
Application & Preparation
Preparation of the substrate:
- The surfaces to be coated must be completely clean, solid and dry
- Sandblast surfaces to remove loose particles, dust, grease, and traces of form-release oils and paint
- Seal cracks or deteriorated areas with products from the Mapegrout range
- Seal all pores and gravel clusters and level off any uneven areas in the sub-layer with Mapefinish fine-textured smoothing and levelling compound
- Porosities and small surface imperfections can be levelled with Mapefinish smoothing compound
- In case of damp substrates Mapecoat I 24 must be used after applying Triblock P, three-component epoxy cementitious primer
- Triblock P, diluted with water, can be used as it is, or with sand, such as Quartz 0.25 or Quartz 0.5, which should be added when a skim coat suitable on irregular concrete surfaces is desired
- Mapecoat I 24 can only be applied when the complete curing of the substrate has occurred
Preparing the paint:
- The two components which make up Mapecoat I 24 must be mixed together
- Pour component B (hardener) into component A (resin) and mix with a stirrer at low speed to avoid the formation of air bubbles, until a homogeneous paste is obtained
- Do not use partial quantities of the components, thus avoiding accidental errors in dosage that would compromise the hardening of Mapecoat I 24
Applying the paint:
- Mapecoat I 24 can be applied with traditional methods, that is with brush, roller, or airless spray gun in at least 2 coats
- The second coat can be applied from 6 to 24 hours later, depending on ambient conditions
- Protect the coated surface from rain for at least 12 hours
- Mapecoat I 24 is ready for light foot traffic after 24 hours
Maintenance during application:
- The surface coated with Mapecoat I 24 can be washed with water and detergents (after a preliminary test, given the large number of cleaning products on the market)
- Once hardened the product may only be removed mechanically
Cleaning:
- Brushes, rollers and airless spray guns can be cleaned with ethyl alcohol before Mapecoat I 24 dries
- Once hardened the product may only be removed mechanically
Storage and Safety Instructions
- Mapecoat I 24 can be stored for 24 months in a dry place, away from heat and flame, at temperatures between +5°C and +30°C
- Instructions for the safe use of our products can be found on the latest version of the Safety Data Sheet (see 'Data Sheets' section above)
- When the product reacts it generates considerable heat
- After mixing components A and B, it is recommended to apply the product as soon as possible and to never leave the container unguarded until it is completely empty
