Applications & Uses

Application Method
Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
Use

May be used as a resin binder layer for single or multiple layer broadcast aggregate overlays on variety of subtrates. May also be used as slurry or polymer concrete in varying thickness depending on use and exposure

To Apply Surface

Steel - Abrasive shot or sand blast to SSPC SP-10. Apply before flash rust appears.
FRP - Consult P3 for details
Concrete - Shotblast clean to remove contaminants. Remove lose debris by vacuum or blow with dry compressed air. Sandblast where shotblasting is not possible.
Asphalt - High pressure water wash followed by dry air so no debris or water remains on surface

Patching

Patching systems shall be free of Magnesium Phosphate. Care should be taken when using high early strength systems and adequate curing should be allowed. On typical concrete decks moisture should not exceed 4.5 % measured by acceptable moisture detection systems. Extra precaution shall be taken for decks with 'in situ' forms.

Mixing

Manual: Measure the two components separately; Part A and Part B according to mix ratio by volume (2A:1B) in containers free of mositure, debris, solvents or any contaminants. Pour into a clean mixing container, one component at a time, thoroughly mix ensuring no unmixed material remains. Time of mixing will vary with batch size and temperatures. It is not recommended to mix more than 15 mixed Gallons at any one time. Working time is reduced due to exotherm. Pour immediately on surface and spread using roller or squeegee. Broadcast aggregate.
 

Mechanical: Volumetric, positive displacement measuring, mixing and dispensing equipment may be used as approved by P3 as a manufacturer or as provided by P3. Equipment shall be capable of conditioning components stored in independent tanks and consistently measure, mix and dispense liquid to be spread on surface manually or mechanically. Broadcast aggregate before mixed material begins to get tacky.

Aggregate

Choice of aggregate shall be determined by desired esthetics, wear, polish and fracture resistance. Recommended aggregates may be angular basalt, granite, flint and bauxite. Angularity will vary with intended use. Selected aggregate shall be washed, dried and free of moisture when broadcast or mixed into the liquid polymer.

Safety & Health

Safety

Caution:

Part A: Contains Epoxy Resin. Skin and eye irritant. Prolonged contact can cause sensitization.

Part B: Contains Amines. Skin and eye irritant. Can cause severe burns when in contact with skin and eyes. Use proper clothing and respirators. Consult Safety Data Sheet for details.

First Aid:

Remove contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with water and soap. If contact with eyes, irrigate with water for 15 minutes and consult physician. Remove to ventilated area. If ingested, do not induce vomit, seek medical attention immediately. Consult Safety Data Sheet for details.
