M-PRIME 100 – Low Viscosity Epoxy Concrete Primer

Existing Concrete

• Remove any contamination and lightly abrasive blast or scarify taking care not to expose the aggregate.

New Concrete

• Allow new concrete to cure for a minimum 21 days and remove any surface laitance before coating.
• Ensure the moisture content of the concrete is 8% or below.
• Suitable for application where the surface temperature is 5°C (40°F) or above

Prior to mixing please ensure the following:

• The base component is at a temperature between 15-25°C.
• Do not apply the material when the ambient or substrate temperature is below 5°C.

• Mix the base component (amber liquid) with the activator component (amber liquid) in full units as supplied, ideally use slow speed paddle mixer.

• For small quantities us a mixing ratio of: 2:1 by volume or 2.25:1 by weight.

• When mixing both materials it is essential to have a uniform clear fluid that is streak free.

• Once mixed, the material should be used within 40-45 minutes at 20°C.

• To ensure best results use the mixed fluid as soon possible after mixing.
  
  

Brush & Roller

• Pour the mixed material into a paint kettle or paint tray (this will maximise the usable life).
• Using a 50mm (2”) wide synthetic brush, stripe coat all edges, joints, corners and equipment with the mixed material.
• The stripe coat must be approximately 100mm (4”) wide, at 150 microns (6mil) wet film thickness.
• Once the stripe coat has cured sufficiently and is capable of being overcoated, apply the mixed product to all surfaces at 150 microns (6mil) wet film thickness.
