ConoGlaze may be used in many kinds of manufacturing, processing, storage, and shipping areas. It is formulated as a general purpose sealer to resist most acids and alkalis. This material can be applied by roller or spray and provides an economical protective barrier to processing chemicals.
The ConoGlaze system should be used with an appropriate Sauereisen primer to enhance bonding. Consult Sauereisen for a primer recommendation depending on the type of substrate and surface conditions.
- Characteristics
- Excellent resistance to food acids and by-products.
- Authorized by USDA for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants.
- Easy to clean surface.
- Colors: 25 beige, 50 light gray, 53 gray, 63 tile red and 99 white.

- Area Preparation
Temperature of Working Area
- For optimum conditions, maintain a temperature of 60°- 85°F on air, substrate, Liquid, and Hardener components during mixing, application, and cure. The monolithic components should be maintained at 65°F to 80°F for 48 hours prior to beginning work. At temperatures below 65°F, the application becomes more difficult and curing is retarded. Above 80°F, the material working time decreases.
- Application in direct sunlight and rising surface temperature may result in blistering of the materials due to expansion of entrapped air or moisture in the substrate. In rising temperatures it may be necessary to postpone the application or apply during cooler hours.
Surface Preparation
- Metal - Abrasive blast to a nominal 2.5 mil profile employing SSPC-SP5 White Metal Blast for immersion and SSPCSP10 for other service conditions. All welds must be continuous, free of flux and have a smooth rounded radius without any sharp edges.
- Concrete - Refer to SSPC-SP13/NACE 6 "Surface Preparation of concrete" for detailed guidelines.
- Surfaces should be free of oil, grease, water, and other contaminants that may inhibit bond. This can be achieved by chemical cleaning.
- New Concrete - All structures must have the necessary strength to withstand imposed loads during normal use and operation. Surface should be floated free of ridges or depressions and all voids filled with Sauereisen Underlayment No. F-120 or No. 209 Filler Compound. The choice of underlayment will depend on the severity of the voids to be filled. Surfaces should be sloped a maximum 1/4 inch per foot for drainage.
- Abrasive blast, high-pressure water blast, or acid etch concrete to remove laitance and obtain uniform surface texture exposing fine aggregate resembling coarse sandpaper.
- Old Concrete - Concrete must be dry, firm and must have the necessary strength to withstand imposed loads during normal use and operation. Mechanical methods should be utilized to remove old paints, protective coatings, and deteriorated concrete.
- Abrasive blast, high-pressure water blast, or acid etch concrete to remove laitance and to obtain a uniform, sound substrate.
- All prepared surfaces must be allowed to dry prior to the coating application. Regardless of preparation method used, all surfaces must be vacuumed to remove any loose deposits or contamination.
- Application
An appropriate Sauereisen primer should be applied prior to the ConoGlaze installation. This will enhance bond strength. ConoWeld No. 501 is the standard Sauereisen epoxy primer for concrete. Where porosity of concrete is a concern, PenePrime No. 500, a deep-penetrating waterborne epoxy primer, is recommended. Hi-Temp Primer No. 560 with Zinc Filler No. 561 is preferred over steel.
Mixing
- Primer - Primers are supplied in premeasured containers. Remix individual containers before using.
- Packaging of Primers No. 500 and 501 consists of Hardener Part A and Resin Part B which must be mixed together. Completely empty contents of Hardener Part A into Resin Part B container. Using a slow speed 1/2 inch drill motor with a "Jiffy" type blade, mix thoroughly until blended for three minutes. Primer is ready for use immediately after mixing.
- Primer No. 560 is a single-component urethane. Ferrous substrates require the addition of Zinc Filler No. 561.
- ConoGlaze - Packaging consists of premeasured unitized containers of Hardener Part A and Resin Part B. Remix Part A and B before combining. Completely empty contents of Hardener Part A into Resin Part B. Using a slow speed 1/2 inch drill motor affixed with a "Jiffy" type blade, mix three to five minutes until thoroughly blended.
- Mix only complete batches. Material which has begun to set must be discarded. Do not add any solvent, additive, or adulterant to any component or mixed material.
