PROCEDURE
1) Surface Preparation
a) Concrete surfaces shall be a minimum of 21 days old
and/or the residual moisture content shall be below 6%.
Ensure that the concrete is clean and free from dust,
laitance, grease, oil, curing compound, existing paint
finishes, etc. Blow holes and detective concrete shall be
made good using a proprietary repair compound e.g.
Floorpatch or EPA Epoxy mortar. Suitable mechanical
treatment such as vacuum grit blasting, or chemical
treatment such as acid etching is recommended to ensure a
clean, uncontaminated surface.
2) Mixing
Pour the contents of the BASE component into the CURING
AGENT container and mix by mechanical means until uniform
colour and appearance is obtained.
The mixed material may be thinned by the addition of up
to a maximum of 5% by volume of potable water.
3) Application
Apply by brush, roller or airless spray to the prepared
surface at a nominal rate of 0.20 to 0.25 Kg/Sq.m. per
coat, equivalent to a dry film thickness of 100 - 125
microns. A minimum two coat treatment is recommended,
applying subsequent coats after a minimum interval of 18
hours curing. Ensure good ventilation after application,
as this speeds up the physical drying stage of the curing
process.
Note: For absorbent surfaces, it is recommended that a
priming coat of WB Primer, be applied at a nominal rate
of 0.20 Kg/Sq.m., prior to the coating application.
Should a non-slip finish be required, a suitable silica
sand should be scattered onto the first coat of WB
Coating whilst still wet. The following day any excess
sand may be swept from the surface using a clean brush
prior to application of the second coat.
4) Equipment Cleaning
Clean all equipment with Toolclean, prior to curing of
the resin.
5) Curing
Allow to cure for a minimum of 24 hours @ 20'C prior to
foot traffic, and for a minimum of 48 hours prior to
normal traffic. Full chemical resistance will be achieved
following 7 days cure @ 20'C.
6) Packaging
WB Coating is supplied in 5 Kg and 15 Kg packs.
7) Coverage
A 5 Kg pack is sufficient to treat 10 - 12.5 Sq.m. of
surface with the recommended two coat treatment giving an
overall dry film thickness of 200-250 microns.
(15Kg pack pro rata).
8) Storage and Shelf Life
Store in dry, frost free conditions, at temperatures
between 10'C and 25'C.
WB Coating has a minimum shelf life of 12 months when
stored in original, unopened containers in accordance
with manufacturers instructions.
9) Limitations
Do not apply to wet or uncured concrete surfaces.
Do not apply at temperatures of 3'C or less.
In poorly ventilated areas forced extraction must be
provided.
10) Health and Safety
Avoid contact of the material with skin and eyes.
Wear appropriate gloves, overalls and eye protection
during use.
Please refer to material Safety Data Sheet for additional
in formation.
For specific advice regarding any aspect of this product,
please consult our Technical Section.
WB COATING is also available in a ANTI-STATIC grade,
where the system comprises:
1 x WB PRIMER, anti-static @ 0.2kg/sq.m.
2 x WB COATING, anti-static @ 0.25kg/sq.m./coat
Should a more slip resistant finish be required, then a
conductive sand is broadcast onto the first coat of WB
Coating, anti-static, whilst still wet.
