- Typical Uses
Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer MT is for use with epoxy setting beds, coatings, linings and floor topping systems.
- Method of Installation
REZKLAD E-CONCRETE PRIMER MT is brush or roller applied.
- Surface Preparation
Existing, New and Damp Concrete: Mechanical grit blasting or acid washing is required for preparing the concrete surface. A finish similar to the profile of 100 to 120 grit sandpaper is suggested. The prepared substrate must be free of ridges, protrusions, fins and mortar splatter. The substrate must be structurally sound, clean and free of all contaminants, such as sealers, curing compounds, coatings, oil, dirt and dust. Previously applied coatings or paint must be removed.
New Concrete : The concrete substrate must have a minimum of 5 days (120 hours) cure prior to application of the primer.
Damp Concrete : The surface may be damp, but must be free of all standing water. Remove puddled or standing water by vacuuming, sweeping, squeegee, sponge or blowing off with compressed air. The concrete substrate must have a minimum of 5 days (120 hours) cure prior to the application of the primer.
Application of The Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer Mt
- Apply Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer MT with a brush or paint roller making sure to work it into the pores of the concrete. Do not allow puddling. Reprime areas in which the primer has absorbed into the substrate as evident by a dull finish.
- When using CONDUCTIVE PRIMER, stir the mixed components frequently during the application to avoid settlement of the carbon powder.
- Allow the Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer MT to dry before continuing. If the subsequent system recommends application to wet or tacky primer, apply a second coat of Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer MT and pr°Ceed with the system installation instructions.
- If the primer is allowed to dry for longer than the maximum drying time, the surface must be sanded and the area reprimed before pr°Ceeding.

Proportionally increase or decrease component quantities to attain larger or smaller batch sizes.
Mixing of The Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer Mt
Stir the contents of the individual resin and hardener containers prior to blending. Mixing of the components should be done with a hand drill equipped with a “Jiffy” type mixer at a mixing speed between 300 and 500 RPM. During mixing, move the mixing blade in circular and up and down motions scraping all sides and the bottom of the mixing container. Refer to the Mix Rati°Chart to proportionally decrease component quantities to attain smaller batch sizes.
1/2-Gallon (3 lb. 12 oz. [1.7 kg.]) Unit:
- Place the contents of the 1/2-gallon can (2 lb. 8 oz. [1.1 kg.]) of Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer Resin in a clean, dry plastic or metal mixing container. Scrape the sides of the resin can to remove all the resin.
- Add the contents of the 1-quart can (1 lb. 4 oz. [567 g.]) of Rezklad® E-Concrete Primer MT Hardener. Scrape the sides of the hardener can to remove all the hardener.
