- General Application Guidelines
Storage: Store all products in a clean, warm area where the temperature remains between 50-110ºF (10-43ºC). Cold products are very viscous and will be difficult to mix and apply. Products shipped during cold months can remain cold for many days even when stored as recommended. Paste or trowel applied products will remain cold longer than liquid or spray applied products. Heating of the individual components may be required to bring the products to the recommended temperatures.
Surface Preparation: ICRI CSP 3-7 / SSPC-SP13
All surfaces to be lined are to be clean, dry, and oil free. Refer to the DUROMAR Information and Application Guide for specific instructions for various surfaces such as concrete, metal fiberglass, etc.
Application Equipment:
- Brushes-short bristle, nylon, and non-shedding. Replace when products become hot or stiff.
- Rollers-short nap (3/8” max.) nonshedding, with a polyethylene core. Replace when products become hot or stiff.
Mixing:
- Do not add solvent to any DUROMAR products. These materials are formulated to be applied as shipped after proper mixing.
- The temperature of the Hardener (A) and Base (B) portions should be between 70-80ºF (20-25ºC). Mix them separately to insure a uniform consistency.
- For a 2 gallon unit of HYDROFLOR® add the entire contents of part B (Base), part A (Hardener) and 48 ounces of clean water to the 5 gallon bucket. Mix contents thoroughly until all components are completely incorporated and no streaking is observed. Then slowly add entire contents of part C (Filler) and mix thoroughly making sure Part C (filler) is completely incorporated. If needed, to assist in the self leveling process, 8 ounces of water can be added and mixed thoroughly. These portions are accurately measured and best product performance will be obtained if all the Hardener and Base is combined. Pouring from one container to the other (boxing) during mixing is very helpful in insuring complete mixing.
Application:
- For flooring applications: After mixing all contents as instructed, immediately pour out into a ribbon on the surface. Squeegee the material out evenly and check for desired film thickness by using a wet-film thickness gage. Back-rolling may be necessary in certain applications.
- For hand application: After mixing all contents as instructed, immediately break down the full unit into smaller portions such as roller pans, small buckets. This will keep the product cooler and improve the useable life.
