This antimicrobial epoxy paint system is designed to provide superior protection for both floors and walls, even in the most demanding environments. Thanks to its two-component composition, the product offers enhanced durability, resistance to wear and tear, and can withstand heavy foot and vehicle traffic. Whether used indoors or outdoors, this product delivers a reliable, long-lasting finish.
Application Areas
This epoxy paint system is perfect for a variety of surfaces, including wood, concrete, masonry, asphalt, and tarmac. Its application is suitable for environments that demand stringent hygiene standards, such as hospitals, schools, doctors' surgeries, and other professional spaces. Additionally, it can be used over stable existing paint coverings to provide a refreshed and protective finish.
Surface Preparation
Before application, surfaces must be clean, dry, and free from contaminants. New concrete should be allowed to cure for up to three months, while smoother surfaces may require roughening via mechanical or chemical treatment using products like Coo-Var Acid Etch. Existing painted surfaces should be sanded and cleaned to create a good key for the paint. It’s also crucial to ensure the product is not applied when the temperature is below 10°C, as this could affect drying and performance.
How to Use
The product is water-thinnable and should be diluted with 500ml of water per 5kg pack before application. For best results, mix the base and hardener components thoroughly, using an electric mixer if possible. Once mixed, the paint should be applied using a brush or short pile roller, ensuring even coverage across the surface. Allow at least 16 hours for overcoating, and ensure adequate ventilation during application and curing.
Limitations and Restrictions
It is essential to avoid applying this product at temperatures below 10°C, as this could hinder proper curing. The product should not be used on excessively porous or damp surfaces without appropriate primers. For smooth or polished surfaces, a high-performance primer is recommended, and for metal surfaces, Teamac 2 Pack Zinc Phosphate Primer should be applied. In environments with poor ventilation, ensure adequate airflow to avoid inhalation of fumes.
Additional Recommendations
For the best results, always consult the technical and safety data sheets before use. These are available for download and provide comprehensive guidance on safe handling, application, and disposal.
