Extended Information

SURFACE PREPARATION

Allow new concrete to cure for a minimum of 28 days. Sweep

away all loose dirt and debris. Remove any oil spots, grease

or spills and wash the floor with a suitable detergent or

degreasing solution and rinse. Then etch the floor using the

Concrete Etch.

PREVIOUSLY COATED FLOORS: Make sure the floor is clean and dry.

Use a wire brush to remove any loose or peeling paint or stain. If floor is

sealed, the sealer will have to be removed by grinding or shot blasting.

To ensure proper adhesion, scuff sand the entire surface. WARNING! If

you scrape, sand or remove old paint, you may release lead dust. LEAD

IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS

SUCH AS BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT

WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH-approved

respirator to control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA

vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect

yourself and your family by contacting the National Lead Information

Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead.

MIXING

Premix both components (Parts A and B) thoroughly to ensure any

settled pigment is re-dispersed before adding the activator (Part A)

to the base (Part B). It is critical to add all of Part A to B and mix for

3 minutes. Do not mix the color chips in with the coating. Allow the

coating to stand before using. See induction period on page 2. Mix

again just prior to application. The activated coating must be used

within 1-2 hours after the mixing based on temperature.

APPLICATION

Apply only when air, material, and surface temperatures are

between 60-85°F (15-29°C) and the surface temperature is

at least 5°F (3°C) above the dew point. The relative humidity

should not be greater than 85%. After allowing for the induction

period, cut in the perimeter of the floor along the wall, or other

areas where a roller cannot reach, using a brush or edger before

beginning roller application. Use a synthetic ½” nap roller cover

on a 9” roller frame to apply an even coat of EPOXYShield

onto the surface. Limit the application to 4x4 foot (1.2x1.2m) sections

at a time to make it easier to distribute the colored chips onto the

freshly coated surface. Scatter the decorative chips up and away

from you so they land flat on the wet paint, then continue on to

the next section. Note: Fresh paint can be applied over the loose

chips lying outside the previously painted area. Maintain a wet

edge to prevent lap marks and gloss differences. Only one coat

is necessary under most circumstances. EPOXYShield must be

used within 1 to 2 hours of initial mixing.

CLEAN-UP

Wash tools and equipment with warm water and a mild detergent

immediately after use. To remove dried product use lacquer

thinner. Clean up drips or spatters IMMEDIATELY with water as

dried paint is very difficult to remove. Properly dispose of all soiled

rags.
