GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A highly functional marble effect epoxy/urethane coating. Performs extremely
well as a decorative, anti skid floor coating for concrete, concrete blocks,
hardies cement sheet, and plaster. Also excellent as a wall surface in lightly
textured finish. Possesses excellent chemical resistance to a wide range
of substances. Available in limitless colour blends. It's strong, hard wearing
and chemically resistant nature makes it suitable for pedestrian and vehicular
traffic. The coating thickness is 400 microns. Exterior situations - Excellent resistance to ultra violet light. Every 5-8 years a single maintenance coat will be required to restore the surface gloss.
Interior situations - The only need for a maintenance topcoat is in the case of excessive wear.
USES
1 NON ANTI-SKID FINISH
Best used for areas where easy cleaning is the highest consideration such as walls, interior dry areas, etc. Available in two grades (Fine and Medium) This finish is not anti-skid but is very lightly textured.
2
ANTI SKID FINISHES Best used for vehicular or light foot traffic in wet area locations.
COLOURS AVAILABLE
Limitless colour combinations are available, using three colours of resin, either of standard, or customer choice. Clients should note there might be colour differences in production batches and need to check that the colours available will meet with their requirements.
COATING
APPLICATION PRIMER
Use Permachip Adhesion Promoter @ approximately 8 m2 per lt. Allow to stand for one hour before use, and apply thinly, being careful to produce a `puddle free' coating. (NOTE if the surface has been totally flushed using Permachip Epoxy Flushing Compound, no primer is needed prior to application of the coating) Allow at least one hour prior to Resin Coat application. Allow 1 hour before applying next stage.
SEALCOAT AND BASECOAT RESIN COATINGS
Where patterns are required, the sealcoat is to be applied @ 6m2/kg, and allowed to cure. The pattern is mapped out and tapes applied. Then the three colours are applied @ total of 4m2/lt.
For exterior areas, one coat of Permaglaze is applied @ 5m2/lt. For interior areas, one coat of Permachip Epoxy Glaze is applied @ 6m2/kg, or if direct sunlight is possible, one coat of Permaglaze is applied @ 5m2/lt each coat.
TIME AND ACCESS REQUIREMENTS
As a broad guideline, preparation work takes between one and two days, and application of the coating takes three days, with allowance for 24-hour cure before use following completion. In specific circumstances these time frames can be reduced by rostering work hours. Specific details require discussion with the applicator.
During the conduct of the work it is essential that no sub trades use the area being completed, to avoid the chance of damage occurring to the surface.
