EpoxyGrip 2000 can be applied over the following primers or directly to steel or concrete as recommended. EpoxyGrip 2000 should be applied to cured ZincGard 1000 by thinning one pint/gallon with Reducer 2 and applying a mist coat approximately 3mils wet which seals the porous inorganic zinc. The mist coat is followed by another light coat to achieve the total desired film thickness. EpoxyGrip 2000 is applied without a mist coat to ZincGard 1500, EpoxyGrip 2100 and MasticGrip 2500. Consult SSPC-PS Guide 8.00 for topcoating zinc-rich primers.
- Topcoats
EpoxyGrip 2000, like other epoxies, tends to chalk and amber when exposed to sunlight in a humid environment. Urethane topcoats are recommended to control the erosion of the epoxy and maintain a colorfast system. UreGrip 3000 and UreGrip 3300 are recommended topcoat for EpoxyGrip 2000.
- Pot Life
Three hours at 75° and less at higher temperatures.
- Film Thickness (Per Coat)
Dry film thickness: 4 to 6 mils
Wet film thickness: 5 to 9 mils
Theoretical coverage: 257 sq. ft. at 5 mils DFTNote: One coat is normally required; however, certain colors may require additional coats for hiding.
