M-CORR 500 – Water-Based Acrylic Encapsulation Coating

• All surfaces must be hydro-blasted using clean water at 12,000 psi (850bar) to NACE 5 (SSPC SP13 WJ3-WJ1).
• All surfaces must be coated before gingering or oxidation occurs

• All oil and grease must be removed from the surface using an appropriate cleaner such as MEK.
• All surfaces must be mechanically abraded using handheld grinders to ISO 8501/4 ST3 (SSPC SP3 ST3).
• Once abraded, the surface must be degreased and cleaned using MEK or similar type material.
• All surfaces must be repaired before gingering or oxidation occurs.

Existing Concrete

• If the concrete surface is contaminated, pressure wash using clean water.
• Once the concrete is dry lightly abrasive blast or scarify taking care not to expose the aggregate.
• Clean all dust and debris from the surface and take several moisture readings and prime with M-PRIME 100 – Low Viscosity Epoxy Concrete Primer or M-PRIME 104 – Damp Tolerant Concrete Primer dependent on the moisture readings obtained.
• Apply M-PRIME 100 or M-PRIME 104 at a target wet film of 150 microns, allow to cure before overcoating.
• For very porous surfaces a second coat of primer may be required.

New Concrete

• Allow new concrete to cure for a minimum of 21 days, lightly abrasive blast or scarify to remove any surface laitance.
• Clean all dust and debris from the surface and take several moisture readings and prime with M-PRIME 100 – Low Viscosity Epoxy Concrete Primer or M-PRIME 104 – Damp Tolerant Concrete Primer dependent on the moisture readings obtained.
• Apply M-PRIME 100 or M-PRIME 104 at a target wet film of 150 microns, allow to cure before overcoating.

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.

• Using a low speed electric paddle mixer, ensure a consistent mix of acrylic emulsion is achieved.
• Once mixing is complete use the mixed paste as soon possible.
• Use all mixed material within 20-25 minutes at 20°C.

Brush & Roller

• Pour the mixed material into a paint kettle or paint tray (this will maximise the usable life).
• Stripe coat all edges, joints & corners.
• Once the stripe coat has cured and is capable of being overcoated, apply a basecoat at a minimum wet film thickness 400 microns.
• Once the basecoat has cured sufficiently, approximately 30 minutes at 20°C, apply a topcoat at a minimum wet film thickness of 400 microns.
