E100C Moisture Cured Urethane Sealer | Dustproofer | Concrete Wood Masonry

CURE SCHEDULE

NOTE:  Always recoat E101C the same day before rain, fog and/or condensation can occur on the coating.  These conditions will result in poor adhesion of the next coat.  When applying multiple coats of MCU-101, lightly sand with 125 grit sander between coats.  Be sure to remove all dust.  Higher humidity will decrease the recoat times.

APPLICATION TEMPERATURE: 50ºF – 90ºF Do not apply to surfaces below 50°F or above 90°F. Do not apply over dew or frost. The surface temperature should be at least 5°F above the dew point.

MIXING AND APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

SURFACE PREPARATION

In all cases of surface preparation, the pH should be checked.  A pH reading of 7.0 to 8.5 is acceptable.  Also, a Water Dissipation Test should be made on random areas of the floor to determine if the proper degree of porosity has been achieved.  Before the installation of any Gulf Coat Paint Products, the substrate should be examined for moisture.  Test for moisture vapor transmission using ASTM F-1869 Standard Test Method for Measuring Moisture Vapor Emission Rate of Concrete Subfloor using Anhydrous Calcium Chloride.  The maximum allowable rate is 3 lbs. per 1,000 square feet per 24 hours.  Test for relative humidity in concrete floor slabs using Probes according to ASTM F-2170.  This test measures the presence relative humidity of the slab below the surface.  The maximum relative humidity should be below 80%.

New concrete must be cured at least a minimum of 28 days before applying a coating.  On-grade slabs must have moisture vapor barrier in place.  All laitance, sealers, efflorescence, chemical contaminants, grease, oil and other foreign material must be removed.  The prepared surface must be clean, dry and structurally sound.

Proper floor preparation should include acid etching to create a textured surface followed by power washing.

Old concrete surfaces must be structurally sound.  Any unsound areas must be repaired prior to proceeding with the resinous installation.  For proper patching and repairing, use CF-615 and/or E1000 with graded aggregate.  Remove existing paint and loose concrete by rough sanding, sandblasting, high pressure water cleaning, shot blasting or grinding.  In some cases where plant conditions allow, a stripper may be used to remove excessive build-up of paints or sealers.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

E101C is made ready for use by stirring.  When used over a period of time, stir occasionally to maintain uniform mix.  Thinning is not usually necessary.  If done, use up to 1 pint SA-50 Reducer which is a water free grade (100% Xylene).  Keep unused material tightly closed at all times.

For best mixing results and proper blending of parts A and B, recommend a Jiffy Mixer style drill mixer.

Use of an improper drill mixer can result in curing problems if the hardener also called activator (Part B) is not thoroughly blended with the resin (Part A) which can cause some areas on your floor to remain soft and not harden properly.  DO NOT USE A PAINT MIXER.  Most mixing problems described above can be traced back to using a paint mixer..  DO NOT HAND MIX as this approach can result in the same problems as using a paint mixer.

NOTE:  Always wear protective gloves and clothing while mixing and applying E101C.  Do not get on skin.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE

E101C may be applied by Lambswool application, brush or spray.  When rolling, the roller cover should be a 3/8″ nap lint free professional grade epoxy roller with a phenolic core, and brushes should be natural bristles.  For spray, it is important that a moisture/oil trap be used on incoming air, and that fluid lines be flushed first with an anhydrous solvent (water free) such as S-74 (100% MEK).  Also, flush every 1-2 hours during use to keep lines clean from material build up.  When applying multiple coats of E101C, lightly sand between coats.  Be sure to remove all dust.

Required equipment is as follows:

Airless Spray

Use a minimum 20:1 ratio pump with 80-100 psi inbound air.  Recommended a .011”-.017” tip.  Adjust pressure for proper atomization based on selected tip.

When spraying, use a 50% overlapping crosshatch pattern to minimize the occurrence of pinholes.  Do not apply to surfaces below 50°F or above 90°F.  Do not apply over dew or frost.  The surface should be dry and at least 5°F above the dew point.

CAUTION DANGER

E101C is flammable.  Keep away from all sources of ignition during storage, mixing, application and cure.  Contains Polyisocyanate based on MDI and aromatic solvents. When applying, the use of goggles, fresh air masks or NIOSH approved respirators, protective skin cream, and protective clothing is recommended as a standard practice. This product is sold without warranty as to performance expressed or implied.  Users are urged to make their own tests to determine the suitability for their particular conditions.

LIMITATIONS:

• Do not apply over frost, wet or damp surfaces or extremely high humidity conditions.
• Not recommended as tank lining for constant immersion.
• Must be recoated within 6 hours at 75°F and 50% R.H.
• Partially used containers must be reclosed tightly to prevent moisture in air from reacting with material and forming a tough skin.  Skin can be removed and remaining material used.  Be sure to restir.
