Examples:• Epoxy Resin• Casting Resin• Polyaspartics• 91% Isopropyl Alcohol• Patch Paste DOT CLASSIFICATIONS:“not regulated” CURE SCHEDULE: Dependent on binder system used.SAFETY:Review current Safety Data Sheet(s) and all relevant documentation before installation.PRIMER:Primers can vary byproduct and color TOPCOAT:The binder system with the addition of the Metallic Color Pigment can be the finish coat.However, in some applications, a clear topcoat can be utilized. To protect the finished surface, ahigh performance floor finish or wax can be utilized in conjunction with regular cleaning andbuffing. SURFACE PREPARATION: Before installing, substrate must be clean, profiled, and sound. Themost suitable surface preparation would be surface profiling with a floor grinder. However, a finebrush blast (shot blast) to remove all laitance can be used as well. If shot blasting, a CSP-2 or CSP-3 is ideal and will help to avoid corn rows that can detract from the look of the floor. A smoothbut slightly profiled surface will provide the best results. All dirt, foreign contaminants, oil andlaitance must be removed to assure a trouble free bond to the substrate. A test should be madeto determine that the concrete is dry; this can be done by placing a 4’X4’ plastic sheet on thesubstrate and taping down the edges. If after 24 hours, the substrate is still dry below the plasticsheet, then the substrate is generally dry enough to start coating. The plastic sheet testing is alsoa good method to determine if any hydro-static pressure problems exist that may later causedisbonding. PRIMING and SURFACE REPAIRS: Before priming, repair any cracks, holes or otherimperfections. The primer selection is an important component of the system application. Eachprimer color selection will provide a different look even when the same metallic color pigment isused. Generally dark color primers will provide the best results. Although you can experimentwith different primer colors, we recommend that a black primer be used initially in yourevaluations, as this will allow you to make your offerings more standardized. PRODUCT MIXING: Use one 8 OZ container of Metallic Color Pigment for 2 mixed gallon oreach mixed 3 gallon of the clear binder, dependent on the opacity desired. Mix the pigment inwell with a slow speed mixing equipment to avoid mixing in air. PRODUCT APPLICATION: Although many binders can be utilized, a clear epoxy binder is thepreferred choice. The recommended coverage rate is 75 to 100 square feet per gallon. Thiscoverage rate will generally ensure that the pigment will achieve the desired look by allowing thepigments in the binder to create their patina. If the coating is applied too thin, the pigments willnot flow properly and the patina will not develop correctly. Mix only a kit size that can be appliedwithin the usable pot life of the product to be utilized. Applications are best performed using a¼” notched squeegee or flexible flat squeegee. This application technique will ensure a uniformapplication rate. After the clear binder with the metallic color pigment has been applied, backroll the surface with a lint free roller to insure a uniform coverage and thickness. Once thecoating evenly covers the substrate it is time to freely swirl the roller in a random figure-eightmotion to mimic the look of natural stone or rock formations. Depending on the final lookdesired, various finishing techniques can be used to provide different results dependent on theviscosity of the binder used. For a low viscosity binder, back rolling the surface will be all that isneeded; but in some cases, you may want to perform some additional finishing steps. The firsttechnique would be to use a small foam roller and finish by randomly swirling the finish into thefloor. Many of these swirl marks will dissipate, but some will remain and leave a unique patina.This foam roller swirl technique can work well with either a low viscosity binder or a mediumviscosity binder. For a high viscosity binder where the product will not level back out correctlyfrom a foam roller swirl technique, another application technique can be employed. Thistechnique involves the use of a solvent, such as denatured alcohol to create various visualeffects. The alcohol is best applied using a handheld trigger spray bottle using a course spraysetting. As the spray droplets drop to the surface, the surface tension will change and createdifferent patina patterns. This spray method can also be used for thin applications (8 mils or less)to provide a hammer look. Note: The addition of the metallic pigments can create air andmigration of pigments can cause surface defects and air release during cure. Different rollertechniques can also generate air that may not dissipate. Experimentation is the best way todevelop a technique for applications as many characteristics can be achieved through differenttechniques of application. RECOAT OR TOPCOATING: For enhanced durability, smooth texture and/or a semi-gloss ormatte finish, the dried Metallic Pigment coating surface can be lightly screened or sanded and aclear topcoat may be applied. Although the applied Metallic Color Pigment and binder systemcan be the final coat, many clear coatings such as urethanes can be used to protect the uniquesurface created. If there is too much texture in the floor, dependent on primer application, a lightsanding to knock down the high spots, followed by another application of the clear binder(without pigments) can be applied.
