EP Design - 2K Epoxy Resin Flooring for Pouring and Spreading

The substrate must be level, load-bearing, dry, sufficiently tensile and compressive strength, and clean. Dust, oil, grease and release agents must be removed in advance using suitable methods (preferred method: shot blasting (except for EP Design transparent); alternatively diamond grinding with thorough vacuuming).
Application should be carried out at 17-23 °C (room and substrate temperature) and a maximum relative humidity of 60 %.

1. For mixing, pour the complete contents of EP Primer component B into the container of EP Primer component A and mix slowly and thoroughly with a drill for approx. 3 minutes at 300-400 rpm. 
   Working Time: approx. 40 minutes at 20 °C.
2. Immediately after mixing, pour the material onto the floor, spread it with a rubber squeegee and then roll over it to achieve an even surface and retain the floor texture.
3. During curing, protect the area from moisture, dust and mechanical stress.
   Walkable after approx. 14 hours, fully load-bearing after approx. 7 days (temperature-dependent).
4. Subsequent coating with other products may be applied at 20 °C no earlier than 14 hours and no later than 36 hours after application of the EP Primer.
   Important: If the subsequent coating is not applied within 36 hours, the EP Primer must be broadcast with quartz sand while still fresh/liquid (recommended amount: approx. 300 g/m²).
   Before applying the next coating, any loose excess quartz sand must be removed with a broom.

1. For mixing, pour the complete contents of EP Levelling Compound component B and 10 kg of quartz sand into the container of EP Levelling Compound component A and mix slowly and thoroughly with a drill for approx. 3 minutes at 300-400 rpm. 
   Working Time: approx. 30 minutes at 20 °C.
2. Immediately after mixing, pour the mixture onto the floor, spread it evenly with a surface squeegee and then deaerate with a spiked roller to achieve an even surface and a smooth finish.
3. During curing, protect the area from moisture, dust and mechanical stress.
   Walkable after approx. 15 hours, fully load-bearing after approx. 7 days (temperature-dependent).
4. Subsequent coating with EP Design may be applied at 20 °C no earlier than 15 hours and no later than 36 hours after application of EP Levelling Compound.
   Important: If EP Design is not applied within 36 hours, the EP Levelling Compound must be broadcast with quartz sand while still fresh/liquid (recommended amount: approx. 500 g/m²).
   Before applying the EP Design coating, any loose excess quartz sand must be removed with a broom.

1. Mix EP Design component A with component B in a mixing ratio of 2:1 by weight (e.g. 2 kg component A with 1 kg component B). Then add the pigments and mix thoroughly again (except for EP Design transparent).
   Detailed instructions for each colour set can be found at the end of this page under “Instructions for Use”.
2. Immediately after mixing, pour the mixture onto the floor and spread it evenly with a surface squeegee.
3. During curing, protect the area from moisture, dust and mechanical stress. Walkable after approx. 24 hours, fully load-bearing after approx. 7 days (temperature-dependent).

1. Wait at least 24 h before applying the PU Topcoat on top of the EP Design. If you wait more than 7 days before applying the PU Topcoat, we recommend sanding the EP Design to ensure proper adhesion. 
2. Mix the resin A-component and the hardener B-component in a 2 to 1 mixing ratio (e.g. 1 kg resin A-component with 0.5 kg hardener B-component).
3. Stir through the edge and bottom of the mixing cup as the material will settle there. Ideally, pour into a clean mixing cup and mix again until the mixture is streak-free. This ensures that the resin A-component and hardener B-component are completely mixed together. We recommend mixing small quantities, as the material is very reactive and thickens quickly (Max. processing time for 1.5 kg - 20 min at 20°C).
4. Pour the mixture into a paint tray and apply it thinly with a roller in a criss-cross pattern.
5. Let the first coat cure and apply the second coat in the same way. We recommend applying the second coat after min. 6h but not more than 20h. If you wait more than 20h between the PU Topcoat coats, we recommend sanding the first coat to ensure proper adhesion.

Do not wear rubber-soled shoes while sanding, cleaning, after cleaning, or during the application of the 2K PU Topcoat, as rubber microparticles may cause an uneven finish. Rubber-soled shoes can be worn once the second coat of 2K PU Topcoat is cured. Wait until the 2K PU Topcoat is walkable (approx. 12 hours) before applying the second coat.
