EPODEX – PRO hardener

The PRO hardener B-component must be mixed with the PRO resin A-component before use. The PRO system consists of the PRO resin and PRO hardener. The PRO system is a high-quality coating and casting epoxy resin. It can be use for coating substrates such as floors and tables. It is also suitable as a sealant for artwork, tables and worktops. It is perfect to make jewellery and small decorative objects. The PRO system can be mixed with all our colour pigments.

Instructions for use

1. Always start with an epoxy resin primer to avoid high material loss and blistering (layer thickness: 0,2-0,5mm). To do so, simply use a portion of the same clear epoxy resin (to prime floors and other coloured substrates we recommend to use our water-based epoxy resin SEALER & PRIMER system).
2. Mix the PRO resin A-component with the PRO hardener B-component in a ratio of 2:1 (e.g. 2kg resin: 1kg hardener).
3. Stir through the edge and bottom of the mixing cup as 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.
4. Pour the resin-hardener mixture onto the surface to be coated immediately after mixing, as the product can start to boil in the mixing cup.
5. Paint the epoxy primer with a paint roller or brush on the desired surface. We recommend rollers made of polyamide.
6. Let the primer cure. The curing time varies depending on the temperature and layer thickness. Please refer to our information table under the“Learn more” button, which can be find on this product page.
7. Continue with the main coating in the same way. If you select a colour on this product page, you will receive dyes or colour pigments in addition to the resin and hardener.
8. To colour the main coating, mix the supplied colour with the resin A-component or with resin-hardener mixture. Adjust the colour intensity individually by adding more or less colour pigments.
9. The epoxy resin can be touched and is accessible by foot after 16-24hours and is chemically fully cured after about 7 days.
10. You can find more detailed information in our information table under the “Learn more” button on this product page.
