FAQs

What is the recommended temperature range for application?

While specific temperatures are not provided, generally epoxy floor coatings perform best when applied between 15°C and 25°C. Always refer to the product's technical data sheet for precise recommendations.

How long does the 100ml sample last?

The 100ml sample is intended for testing coverage and color on a small area. Its coverage rate is approximately X square meters per liter (refer to product documentation for exact coverage).

Can this paint be used on wood or metal surfaces?

This product is specifically engineered for concrete substrates. Application on wood or metal may require specialized primers and is not guaranteed to perform as intended without them.

How do I clean up tools after use?

Tools should be cleaned immediately after use with a suitable solvent, as recommended by the manufacturer. Once cured, the product is difficult to remove.

What is the shelf life of the product?

Unmixed components typically have a shelf life of 12-24 months when stored in original, unopened containers in a cool, dry place. Refer to the packaging for the exact expiry date.

Is this product suitable for outdoor use?

While it offers good chemical resistance, UV stability for outdoor use is not explicitly mentioned. Prolonged UV exposure may lead to color fading or degradation. It's best suited for indoor environments or protected outdoor areas.

Do I need to prime the concrete surface first?

It is highly recommended to prime concrete surfaces for optimal adhesion and to seal porous substrates. This paint is compatible with Mipa primers.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not curing or curing slowly.

Ensure accurate mixing ratio of components. Check ambient temperature and humidity, as they can affect curing speed. The product may be past its shelf life or stored improperly.

Poor adhesion or peeling.

Surface was not adequately prepared. Ensure the concrete was clean, dry, and free from contaminants. A suitable primer may be required for certain substrates.

Uneven finish or roller marks.

Ensure thorough mixing and consistent application technique. The self-levelling properties may be compromised if the product is too cold or applied too thickly/thinly.

Bubbles or pinholes in the finish.

This can be caused by moisture in the concrete or trapped air during application. Ensure the concrete is completely dry and avoid overworking the material.

Pros and Cons

  • Solvent-free formula for safer application.
  • Provides an attractive, easy-to-clean semi-gloss finish.

Cons

  • Sample size is only suitable for testing or small areas.
  • Requires proper surface preparation for optimal adhesion.
  • Curing times can be affected by temperature and humidity.
  • May require specialized primers for certain substrates.
  • A 2K system requires accurate mixing of components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Surface Preparation: Ensure concrete surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and old coatings. Repair any cracks or spalls before application.

Mixing: This is a 2K (two-component) system. Accurately mix the resin and hardener components according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically in a specific ratio. Mix thoroughly to ensure uniform consistency.

Application: Apply using a roller, trowel, or notched trowel. For anti-slip properties, compatible quartz additives can be mixed into the paint or broadcast onto the wet surface. Ensure adequate ventilation during application.

Compatibility: The paint is designed to adhere to concrete substrates. It is compatible with Mipa primers. Test on a small, inconspicuous area if applying over existing coatings or unusual materials.

Curing: Allow the coating to cure for at least 24 hours before walking on it and 7 days before exposing it to heavy traffic or chemicals. Curing times are dependent on ambient temperature and humidity.

Care: Clean spills promptly. Regular cleaning with water and mild detergents is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh solvents that could damage the finish.
