Preparation
It is essential that adequate preparation is carried out prior to the application of SpECcoat PE400.
For concrete and steel surfaces, grit blasting is recommended. Steel surfaces should be prepared to bright metal Standard. The preparation should ensure the removal of old coatings, laitance, grease and oil.
Any imperfections or ‘blow holes’ should be filled using SpECcoat BC.
Mixing
SpECcoat PE400 is supplied in a two component kit consisting of base resin and curing agent components. The two parts are produced in the correct proportions for mixing. Part mixing of the packs should not be attempted.
Both of the components should be briefly stirred to ensure that any settlement products are fully suspended.
Empty the contents of the base component tin into the curing agent tin. To ensure that all of the base component is removed, the inside of the tin should be scraped. The material should then be mixed using a suitable slow speed electric drill with a spiral paddle attachment for three to five minutes until the product appears uniform.
Application
SpECcoat PE400 may be applied by brush, roller or airless spray. The application should produce an even coverage without pinholes.
