The temperature of the substrate and air during the works should be from +5°C to +30°C. The temperature of the substrate must always be at least 3°C above the dew point temperature until the material is fully cured. Works should not be carried out during precipitation and strong sunlight.
The steel substrate must be cleaned to at least cleanliness grade Sa 2 according to PN-ISO 8501-1. The substrate must be dry, free of salt, grease, dust and foreign dirt.
The concrete substrate must be seasoned (min. 28 days after pouring), of sufficient strength, dry or slightly damp only, free from cracks, protrusions, crazing and bleed water. Clean mechanically by sanding or wire brushing by hand. The substrate must be free of grease, dust, grit and inclusions.
The substrate must be primed before applying the proper coating with a solution of EPOLIS X9 in a lacquer solvent.
Check the production date on the packaging before use. The product should not be incorporated beyond its shelf life. The product, once opened, should not be objectionable and should be free of any mechanical contaminations. The product can break into phases, which is reversible and not detrimental to product quality. If properly stored, the hardener (component B) is clear after opening the container. After mixing, the compound should be homogeneous and free of lumps resulting from under-mixing.
EPOLIS X9 is supplied in two containers per kit, with both components in a quantity corresponding to the mixing ratio of 100 : 14 parts by weight of component A to component B, respectively. Stir component A thoroughly and add all of component B. Mix both ingredients with a low-speed stirrer (300 - 400 rotations per minute) for approximately 3 minutes to avoid too high air entrainment. While mixing, scrape the material from the sides and bottom of the vessel with the mixer to ensure thorough distribution of the hardener.
For priming, dilute the prepared material with lacquer solvent at a weight ratio of 3 : 1 (EPOLIS X9 : solvent).
EPOLIS X9 can be applied with a brush, a roller, or by airless spraying device. The following parameters are recommended for spray application: minimum gun pressure 15 MPa, minimum material feed hose I.D. 8 mm, nozzle size 0.56 to 0.66 mm, spray angle 40° to 80°. The coating is applied to a properly prepared and primed substrate. The prepared material must be used within 1 hour after mixing the components. Apply the successive layer after 24 hours.
Before use, please read the application details in the product's Technical Data Sheet.

approx. 0,3 kg/m² - priming
approx. 0,6 kg/m² - top layer application
