- Uses
Primary uses of PIP 0075 include intermediate, broadcast and anchor coats especially for decorative applications.
- Options
On Site Tinting via PIP CPU Color packs.PIP 0075 may be tinted on site via the addition of PIP CPU color packs. Depending on color, applied thickness and opacity requirements 1 pint to 1 quart of colorant per 4 gallon mix of PIP 0075 can be used. As a general rule, white or very pastel colors applied at thicknesses less than 15 mils require the higher quart loading. Various aggregates of different size shapes and composition can be incorporated into PIP 0075 to improve traction in slip hazard areas.
- Limitations
Contamination and surface defects: If contaminates including oil, silicone, mold release agents and/or other materials are present, resin systems may fisheye or crawl away from the surface. All surface contaminates should be removed with a suitable detergent prior to application. Solvent cleaning of silicone based contaminates is not recommended.
- Recommended Application Rate
10-15 mils as an intermediate/topcoat.
- Inspection and Application
Caution! Follow all precautions and instructions prior to installation.
Substrate: The substrate must be free of curing membranes, silicate surface hardener, paint, or sealer and be structurally sound. If you suspect concrete has been treated or sealed, proceed with complete removal process. Consult your PIP representative for further instruction if silicate hardeners or membranes have been utilized.
Moisture: Moisture and moisture vapor transmission rates are dynamic in nature and may change over time. Initial testing does not guarantee future results. If the relative humidity of the concrete substrate is over 75% (using ASTM F2170), Protective Industrial Polymers must be consulted and issue a written moisture mitigation recommendation prior to product use.
Vapor/Contamination: Testing for MVT does not guarantee against future problems. If there is no known vapor barrier or the vapor barrier is inadequate, there is an elevated risk of bond failure. Other factors including the migration of oils, chemicals, excessive salts or Alkali Silica Reaction (ASR) from the concrete from may also elevate the risk of adhesion difficulties. Consult your PIP representative for approved mitigation treatments.
Temperature and Humidity: During the application and cure of the coating, the substrate temperature, material temperature and room conditions must be maintained between 65°F (18°C) and 90°F (32°C). Relative Humidity (RH) should be limited to 30-80%. Do not apply coatings unless the surface temperature is more than five degree over the dew point.
- Application Equipment
- Protective equipment and clothing
- Jiffy® Mixer Blade model ES
- Clean container for mixing material
- Low speed high torque drill motor
- High quality short nap roller covers- ¼-3/8 inch nap
- Application Squeegee
- Preparation
Surface dirt, grease, oil and contaminates must be removed by detergent scrubbing and rinsing with clean (clear) water. Mechanical Preparation: Shot Blasting or grinding the surface is the preferred method of preparation. The success of industrial diamond grinding as a concrete preparation method will vary depending on technique and the hardness of the concrete.
Joints: All non moving joints (control joints) can be filled with a rigid or semi-rigid joint compound. Construction joints may be filled with semi-rigid joint filler and might need to be re-built and re-cut depending on conditions. Isolation or expansion joints must be filled with a flexible material designed for expansion and should not be coated over.
Mixing: Mix ratio for PIP 0075 is 3 Parts A resin to 1 part B by volume. The addition of color pack should be added and mixed in homogenously prior to adding the Part B (activator). Mix all components together for 2-3 minutes with a Jiffy® ES mix blade attached to a slow speed drill. Mix only enough material at one time that can be applied without exceeding the pot life. Note: Once this material is mixed, it can’t be resealed for later use.
- Application
PIP 0075 is not specifically designed for application to concrete. Consult Protective Industrial Polymers for the most suitable primer for the intended application. APPLY PIP 0075 to the floor surface using a notched or flat squeegee depending on desired thickness. Leaving the material sit in the pail longer than 5 minutes will result in an increase of heat and viscosity and reduce leveling properties. Best Practice is to empty onto floor as soon as possible to extend working time. Back roll and evenly spread the wet coating using a ¼-3/16” inch nap non-shed roller. Care should be taken to overlap and cross lap, but not over roll the coating introducing air to the surface.
Recoat: PIP 0075 can be top coated with other PIP urethanes or epoxies within 24 hours at 70-75F 30% RH without sanding or may be used as a topcoat over existing (sound) PIP epoxy coatings. If the re-coat window has expired, the prior cured coating surface must be sanded with 100 grit sand paper or sanding screen installed on a swing-type floor buffer. Sand to a uniform dulled surface. Remove all sanding debris with a vacuum and damp mop. Scrub with detergent and rinse with clean water. Surface must be dry before coating.
Spreading Rate: Typical spread rate for PIP 0075 is 80-100SF/gal when used as an intermediate or topcoat. Be sure to plan accordingly as there may be a need for extra material to provide proper coverage. The best practice is to measure and grid the floor to be sure of proper application rate.
Curing (Drying): Allow the coating to cure (dry) for a minimum 24 hours after application at 75°F (24°C) and 50% RH before opening the floor to light traffic, allow more time for low temperatures and higher humidity or for heavier traffic. Full coating properties may take up to 7 days to develop.
- Maintenance Guidelines
Allow floor coating to cure at least one week before cleaning by mechanical means (IE: sweeper, scrubber, disk buffer).
Care: Increased life of the floor will be seen with proper maintenance and will help maintain a fresh appearance of your new Protective Industrial Polymers floor. Regularly sweep to avoid ground in dirt and grit which can quickly dull the finish, decreasing the life of the coating. Spills should be removed quickly as certain chemicals may stain and can permanently damage the finish. Only soft nylon brushes or white pads should be used on your new floor coating. Premature loss of gloss can be caused by hard abrasive bristle Polypropylene (Tynex®) brushes.
Caution: Heavy objects dragged across the surface will scratch all floor coatings. Avoid gouging or scratching the surface. Pointed items or heavy items dropped on the floor may cause chipping or concrete pop out damage. Plasticizer migration from rubber tires can permanently stain the floor coating. If a rubber tire is planned to set on the floor for a long period of time, place a piece of acrylic sheet between the tire and the floor to prevent tire staining. Rubber burns from quick stops and starts from lift trucks can heat the coating to its softening point causing permanent damage and marking.
Repair: Repair gouges, chip outs, and scratches as soon as possible to prevent moisture and chemical under cutting and permanent damage to the floor coating.
