SpECtop WDE100

SpECtop WDE100 may be used in industrial and commercial environments to provide a hard wearing coating to floors and walls, such as:
· Potable water tanks and reservoirs
· Storage areas
· Kitchens
· Food production areas
· Abattoirs
· Showrooms
· Warehouses – light traffic

· High durability, requires low maintenance
· Solvent free, odourless, non-toxic and non-flammable
· Resistant to a wide range of chemicals (see Chemical Resistant Chart)
· Easy to clean, hygienic finish
· Slip resistance available
· Available in a range of colours to demarcate areas and provide an attractive light reflective floor.

Preparation
It is essential that adequate preparation is carried out prior to the application of SpECtop WDE100. Light sweep blasting is strongly recommended to ensure the removal of all laitance, grease and oil. Etching with dilute hydrochloric acid may be carried out in very light traffic environments providing the floor is neutralized, wet vacuumed and allowed to dry prior to application.

Mixing
SpECtop WDE100 is supplied in a two-component pack consisting of a base component and a pigmented curing agent.
Both of components should be briefly stirred to ensure that any settlement products are fully suspended. The entire contents of the base component should be emptied into the hardener component ensuring that the sides of the base component tin are carefully scraped to remove all the material. The product should be mixed until uniform, using a slow-speed, heavy-duty drill and mixing paddle, for at least 3 minutes.

Application
The mixed product may be applied by brush or paint roller. The recommended consumption rate is 14.00 m²/litre per coat (0.014m³), applying a minimum of two coats.
The quantity of material used per coat and the number of coats may vary, dependent upon the porosity of the substrate and the surface profile.

The application of excessive volumes of product should be avoided as this will result in water entrapment affecting the subsequent performance of the coating.

Slip Resistant Finish
If a slip resistant finish is to be provided, then SpECtop NS GRAINS is required.

SpECtop NS GRAINS are supplied in pre-weighed bags.

For a slip resistant profile, the first coat of SpECtop WDE100 is completely blinded with the chosen grade of SpECtop NS GRAINS. This should be carried while the first coat is wet.

When the first coat has reached its initial cure (12 hours @ 20°C), the excess aggregate should be removed by vacuum from the surface. The top coat is then applied by medium pile roller.

SpECtop WDE is supplied as a two-part system with the following recommended coverage rate.

4.5 litre and 15 litre
@ 70µm wft: 14.00m² (0.014m³)/ litre per coat (minimum of 2 coats)
