Product Use Instructions 

SURFACE PREPARATION 

New Concrete or Plaster: Surfaces are best prepared by abrasive blasting to roughen and remove the weak surface laitance. When prepared properly the surface should have the firm granular appearance of “medium” sandpaper

Aged Concrete or Plaster:  Surfaces may be prepared by either high pressure water jetting at sufficient pressure to remove all loose contamination and yielding a firm “medium” sandpaper finish.

Treatment of Deteriorated Plaster Surfaces: Pressure washing of worn plaster will inevitably reveal more weakened or damaged areas. When washing has been completed allow the surface to dry then apply a coat of Bio-Seal E192 by roller, this will seal and bind loose surface materials and create an ideal surface for subsequent coats of Bio-Dur E561 and Fastonite E700.

As soon as the Bio-Seal E192 can be walked on, start repairing and rebuilding areas where lost plaster has left holes in the finish. Bio-Dur E561 is a Kevlar reinforced epoxy paste which is ideal for this job. Using a contrasting color such as gray, apply the Bio-Dur E561 to smooth out badly roughened up or to replace lost plaster. Allow the Bio-Dur E561application to cure until “gummy” before proceeding. If necessary, theBio-Dur E561can be left to harden overnight then sanded smooth with an abrasive disc.

MIXING PROCEDURES 

This material is a two-component product, premeasured to produce the desired kit size once part A and B are mixed. For small kits, a Jiffy type mixer with a high torque motor is recommended for proper blending. Pour the curing agent into the base and mix for about 1 minute, taking care to reach all corners and walls to eliminate unmixed material. Check for color streaks which represent unmixed A or B.  **Unmixed material will never harden**

APPLICATION 

Pour the mixed product into a pan and apply with a roller using a 3/8″ nap for both fiberglass and concrete. Use good quality “phenolic core” rollers that will not shed fibers into the epoxy. When making application by brush, use an appropriate sized brush with preferably natural bristles. In some applications it will be useful to either cut an inch or two of bristles from the end or to wrap the base of the bristles close to the shank with duct tape in order to stiffen the brush.

If airless plural spraying the following conditions are recommended:
Ratio: Base/Cure :: 1.8/1.0
Fluid temperature: 130’F
Fluid pressure: 2,250 psi
Tip: .028” – angle to suit application
Cleaning solvent: MEK or standard epoxy thinner

CURING BEFORE SERVICE

FASTONITE E700 may be immersed in fresh water 24 hours after application. It will cure to a hard film within about 14 hours and is suitable for light traffic after this time.
