MIXING AND APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

PRODUCT STORAGE: Product must be stored in an area that will bring the product to room temperature prior to using. Continuous storage should be between 60 and 90 degree F. Keep from freezing

SURFACE PREPARATION: Preparation methods may vary depending on the system being applied. For a complete system thickness that is higher than 10 mils dry, a fine brush blast (shot blast), is recommended. To assure a trouble free bond, all dust, oil, dirt, foreign contaminants and laitance must be removed. It is recommended to perform a moisture test to determine that the concrete has an appropriate vapor barrier. This can be done by placing a 4’X4’ plastic sheet on the substrate and taping down the edges. Once 24 hours has passed, and the substrate is still dry below the plastic sheet, then the substrate does not show signs of eventual hydrostatic pressure problems that may later cause disbonding. This test does not guarantee, however, that there may not be future hydrostatic pressure issues in the future.

PRODUCT MIXING: This product comes pre-packaged by weight. The kits should be mixed in its entirety. If partial kits are to be used, the ratio of mixing is 4 Parts A to 1 Part B. After the two parts are combined, mix well with slow speed mixing equipment until the material is thoroughly mixed and streak free. Avoid whipping air into the coating. Improper mixing may result in product failure. 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.

PRODUCT APPLICATION: Use a brush or 3/8” nap roller to apply the mixed material, using a dip and roll method. Maintain temperatures within the recommended ranges during the application and curing process. Apply material with relative humidity within the parameters shown on the technical data. Once the end of the pot life has been reached, it will be difficult to apply the material, the product will roll back up onto the roller. Once this has occurred, do not continue the application. Direct sunlight or high temperatures may cause visible roller making during application.

Applying the product too thick may result in product failure. If using a chip brush on the edges, it’s recommended to run a 9” roller over the edges to even out the texture and look of the floor. When coating over concrete, the spread rate is 300-350 sq.ft. per gallon. If coating over an existing coating, the spread rate is 500-600 sq.ft. per gallon.

RECOAT OR TOPCOATING:  Installing multiple coats of this product is acceptable. Refer to the cure schedule as a guideline to follow. Even though the product will feel cured very quickly, you must wait 3 hours prior to coating over HyperPRIME to ensure the water has fully flashed off. Note: colder temperatures require longer cure times before product can be recoated. When recoating this product with subsequent coats of urethane, or a polyaspartic, it’s imperative to make sure the HyperPRIME is fully cured, otherwise, the solvent in the top coat will attack the primer and there will be bonding issues. If recoating this product after 10 hours of it being down, then the primer must be mechanically screened and de-glossed to ensure there is no inter-coat adhesion issues

Confirm after 3 hours wait time recommended after application that the HyperPrime is ready to recoat (if it is hotter or colder than 75 degrees time could vary).  This is done by pressing your thumb on the coating to ensure a fingerprint impression is not visible. If there is no impression visible after the 3 hour required wait time, then coating the floor can be done. Note, colder temperatures require longer cure times before product can be recoated. Prior to coating the floor, make sure there are no contaminants exist. If contaminants or a blush exists, remove with a standard detergent cleaner and ensure floor is clean and dry prior to coating.

When recoating this product with subsequent coats of urethane, or a polyaspartic, it’s imperative to make sure the HyperPRIME is fully cured, otherwise, the solvent in the top coat will attack the primer and there will be bonding issues. If recoating this product after 24 hours of it being down, then the primer must be mechanically screened and de-glossed to ensure there is no inter-coat adhesion issues.

CLEANUP/FLOOR CLEANING:Use solvents for cleanup. When cleaning the floor, CAUTION! Some cleaners may affect the color of the installed floor. Test each cleaner used in a small area, ensuring no damage occurs. Restrict the use of the floor to light traffic and non-harsh chemicals until the floor is fully cured, refer to the cure schedule. Allow the floor to remain completely dry during the curing process.

RESTRICTIONS: Restrict the use of the floor to light traffic and non-harsh chemicals until the floor is fully cured, refer to the cure schedule. Allow the floor to remain completely dry during the curing process.

LIMITATIONS:

• Colors or gloss may be affected by high humidity, low temperatures, chemical exposure, or exposure to lighting such as sodium vapor lights.
• For best results use a 3/8” nap roller
• Slab on grade requires moisture barrier
• Substrate temperature must be 5°F above dew point
• All new concrete must be cured for at least 30 days
• Physical properties are typical values and not specifications
• Product will yellow in the presence of UV light
• Improper mixing or too thick of an application may result in product failure
• Colors may vary from batch to batch, therefore use only product from the same batch for an entire job.
