Hychem SF25 — Low VOC, hard wearing, waterproof and oilproof epoxy paint

• Concrete substrate shall be firm, clean and free of curing agents
• New concrete must be allowed to cure for a minimum of 28 days
• Repair imperfections (holes and cracks) with an epoxy patching compound such as HYCHEM E500T where necessary

Mixing (15 litre pack)

Add the 3 litre resin pack to the 9litres of hardener and mix thoroughly for a minimum of 2 minutes. Once mixed, blend in up to 3 litres of water, using less water for heavy wear areas such as ramps and entry ways.

Before applying, allow the mixed components to stand for 3 minutes, this results in a better consistency of surface finish.

For lightly trafficked surfaces such as foot traffic and car park deck:

• Apply a minimum of 2 coats ( allow 24 hour cure between coats) at a rate of 8 sqm/litre.
• This will yield a dry film thickness of 120 – 125 microns

For heavy trafficked areas such as turning circles, ramps and entry and exit lanes:

• Apply first coat at a rate of 8 sqm/litre. Allow to cure overnight
• Apply a second coat and lightly sprinkle alumina 80 antislip into coating
• Apply a third coat when second coat has cured

• texture of the surface
• Environmental Precautions

HYCHEM SF25, like other water based paints must not be applied when the prevailing humidity is above 80% or the air temperature is below 10°C, as this will impair the curing process. Subsequent warming will not correct the situation, film quality will be permanently affected.

Pot life must not be exceeded and any unused material must be discarded.

12 months from date of manufacture, stored under shelter at 25°C in original un-opened container.
