Description
EPOX-A-TOP is a 100% solvent free,
two component, structural epoxy, primarily used for coating and resurfacing
damaged concrete. It is used for waterproofing and protecting floors against
corrosion and deterioration caused by water, chemicals and heavy traffic.
Epox-A-Top is an ideal coating for beams due to excellent chemical resistance.
MEETS ASTM C-881, TYPE 1& 3, GRADE 1, CLASS B & C
Basic Use
EPOX-A-TOP can be mixed with sand to
make a trowel able motor. It can also be made into a flow able grout for filling
holes or cavities. EPOX-A-TOP can be used as a coating. It can be applied by
brush, rollers or squeegee. For a non-skid surface, sand can be broadcast on
the first coat while still wet. Apply second coat if needed.
Grades
available: Epox-A-Top STD. Fast set or acid resistant.
Advantages
Easy to mix and trowel
100% solids formula (no
solvents)
Excellent adhesion to concrete, steel and wood
No shrinkage
Clear and also available in colors
Excellent chemical resistance
Excellent for grouting
bolts and rebar
Surface Preparation
Area must be clean, sound and dry. Conventional cleaning methods used are acid
etching, shot-blasting or aqua-blasting. Dense concrete should be acid etched
exposing small aggregate particles and giving the appearance of sandpaper.
Mixing Instructions
Stir each component
separately
Blend 2 parts of base to 1 part of reactor by volume and mix
completely
When preparing mortar, mix in 3-4 parts of aggregate by volume
using a slow speed electric drill with paddle
