Features & Benefits

Applications & Uses

Diluents

Toluene, glycol ether solvents, MEK

Surface Preparation

To ensure consistent bonding results, surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned prior to application of the binder/rubber. Protective oils, cutting oils, greases, etc. are removed by solvent degreasing. Scale or tightly adherent coatings are removed by suitable mechanical, sandblast or chemical cleaning methods.

Application

PRIMER 1050 may be applied to the cleaned substrate to ensure ultimate adhesion to a wider variety of substrights. Thoroughly mix ISO 1040A and rubber at a ratio of approximately 1 part ISO 1040A to 5 parts rubber. Apply mixture generously and mat or stamp down to obtain desired density and surface finish. Allow at least 24 hrs prior to foot traffic.
