Properties
- Stable
- Resistant to yellowing
-
Preparation

Substrate requirements
The substrate must be load-bearing, dimensionally stable, solid, free of loose parts, dust, oils, grease, rubber marks and any other substances that could interfere with adhesion. It must be primed so as to remove all surface pores.
The tensile strength of the surface of the substrate must be at least 1.5 N/mm² on average (smallest individual value of at least 1.0 N/mm²), and the compressive strength must be at least 25 N/mm².
Substrates must have reached their moisture balance and must also be protected against moisture penetration from the reverse side, including during use.
Concrete max. 4 m% moisture Cement screed max. 4 m% moisture -
Preparations
The substrate must be prepared using suitable Remmers products.
Refer to the current Technical Data Sheet for detailed information on the single products.

-
Preparation
-
Combination container
Add the entire quantity of the hardener (component B) to the base compound (component A).
Mix thoroughly with a slow-speed electric mixer
(approx. 300 - 400 rpm).Pour the mixture into a separate container and mix again thoroughly.
Mix for at least 3 minutes.
Insufficient mixing is indicated by streaks forming.
-
Application
-
Application requirements
Temperature of the material, air and substrate: from min. +12 °C to max. +30 °C
-
As a general principle, higher temperatures will reduce and lower temperatures will increase the times stated.
-
Working tools / cleaning
-
Smoothing trowel, rubber scraper, epoxy roller, mixer
-
More detailed information can be found in the Remmers Tool Programme.
Clean tools, equipment and splashed material immediately while fresh with V 101.
Take suitable protective and waste disposal measures when cleaning.
-
Storage / shelf life
-
If stored unopened in the original container and kept cool, dry and protected from frost, min. 12 months (component A)/min. 24 months (component B).

Application examples
-
Pore filler
Apply the mixed resin generously to the surface. Distribute with a suitable tool, e.g. rubber blade, and work into the substrate with an epoxy roller so that pores in the surface of the substrate are completely filled.
It may be necessary to apply several layers.
approx. 0.2 - 0.5 kg/m² binder
-
Fixation layer for flake coatings
Pour the material generously onto the surface. Use a suitable 25 cm epoxy roller to apply uniformly and generously, working crosswise, then roll using a 50 cm epoxy roller saturated with material. Replace the rollers with new ones every 30 minutes.
Always work wet-on-wet.
Make sure that no pools form.
approx. 0.3 kg/m² binder

General information
-
Unless otherwise specified, all of the values and application rates given above have been determined under laboratory conditions (20 °C) using standard colours. Slight deviations from these values may arise if the product is worked with on site.
Abrasive mechanical loads leave traces of wear.
Suitable for vehicle traffic with rubber tyres; not suitable for vehicle loads with metal or polyamide tyres nor for dynamic point loads.
Epoxy resins are generally not colourfast when exposed to UV light or weather.
When coating continuous surfaces, only use materials with the same batch number as slight differences in colour, gloss and texture may occur.
When using to fix flake coatings, an additional seal coat is necessary.
Further notes on working, system construction and maintenance of the listed products can be found in the latest Technical Data Sheets and the Remmers system recommendations.
