Surface Preparation
Remove grease, oil and other contaminants preferably by using Bison Degreasing Solvent. Blast clean to a minimum Sa 2 ½ Swedish
Standards SIS 05 5900. For severe corrosive conditions, blast to Sa 3 with a surface profile not exceeding 65 microns. The surface
should be clean and dry before application of Epilux 9 Phenolic Coating.
Concrete: New concrete: Ensure that the concrete is cured for a minimum of three months. The surface is to be made rough and free
from laitance and other contaminants by sand sweeping. Old Concrete: Remove all salt deposits from the surface by water jet washing.
Light sand blast the surface to remove all loosely bound coatings and roughening up of firmly adhering coatings to ensure anchorage
with recommended system. Ensure all dust/other particles are fully removed by suction or air blast and the surface is fully clean and dry
before application of Paint.

Application

Stir base thoroughly and then mix three parts of base and one part of catalyst by volume to a homogenous consistency.
Allow the mixture to mature for 30 minutes and stir again before use and during application.
Brush: Add upto 5% Thinner 844 during application.

Airless spray: Apply preferably without thinning. However, if required, add upto 5% Thinner 844. Use any standard
equipment having pump ratio 30:1. Tip size 0..43-0.48 mm. Tip pressure 110-160 Kg/ Sq cm
