TYPICAL CHARACTERISTICS

DATA ON CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
MASTERCOAT EP100 has been tested for resistance to a comprehensive range of chemicals commonly encountered. Tests were performed by constant immersion for 3 months at 20 Deg C and 35 Deg C in the selected chemical solution. Samples were visually inspected and tested in accordance with ASTM D2240 for Shore D hardness.

Mastercoat EP100 has been formulated especially to provide the highest chemical resistance. However, at elevated temperatures or where mixtures of chemicals are involved then the effects may be different than those found in laboratory tests described above. Consult our technical services department if you are in doubt.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Where relevant, the application and preparation should conform to the British Standard Code of Practice CP 3003 : Part 5, 1966. The advice given below is a summary.

SURFACE PREPARATION
Surface to be coated must be structurally sound, dry and free from loose material. All surface contamination must be removed. Grease and oil should be grit blasted or water jetted. Deeper penetration must be removed by mechanical means. Any laitance must be removed from concrete surface by etching with MASTERKLEAN AEA then washed off and dried. New concrete should be allowed to cure for atleast 28 days prior to priming. Steel surfaces should be shot-blasted to a profile of 125 microns (0.005 inches)
It is essential that Mastercoat EP 100 be applied to sound clean, dry substrates in order to achieve maximum adhesion between the coating and substrate.

MIXING
Mastercoat EP 100 is supplied in pre-weighed quantity; ready to use on site.
Before mixing, the contents of each should be thoroughly stirred to disperse any settlement, which may have taken place during storage. Mix Part I & II thoroughly using a mechanical stirrer.

PRIMING
Steel surfaces should be primed with zinc rich primer a two-part zinc rich primer prior to applying Mastercoat EP 100 concrete surfaces should be preferably primed with Masterprime 52.

APPLICATION
The mixed material is applied on using standard paintbrush, good quality roller or sprayed with airless spray equipment. Care should be taken to ensure continuous film and proper material consumption.

COVERAGE
The coverage will be 4 to 6 m² per Kg.per coat. Density is 1.2

STORAGE AND SHELF LIFE
Shelf life is one year
Store the material in a cool and dry place (at 25°C)


CLEANING OF TOOLS & EQUIPMENTS
Tools have to be cleaned using Choksey's Masterklean SOL.


PACKING: 1 Kg. & 5 Kg.


PRECAUTIONS:
Mastercoat EP 100 should be applied with gloves and care should be taken to see that it does not fall on eyes. Splashes on to the skin have to be cleaned only with plenty of water and medical advice has to be taken and medical advice has to be taken. It is highly inflammable. Keep away from fire.
