SMAC EPOPRIME is a two component, nano modified water based Epoxy Primer. It has been developed specially for fresh, moist, damp and old concrete prior to application of Epoxy and Polyurethane top coats.
SMAC ® EPOPRIME is developed for Water based Epoxy and solvent less Epoxy / Polyurethane final coats over a concrete surface. It also serves as a sealer coat, as it penetrates the concrete capillaries and seals them.
SMAC ® EPOPRIME further reduces the absorption of subsequent Epoxy and Polyurethane coating materials, thus improving coverage with enhanced protective effect.
Advantage:
It penetrates into the capillaries present in the concrete & seals them
It can be applied on fresh, moist or damp, as well as old concrete
Improves strength of fresh concrete surface by about 10%.
Excellent adhesion with water based Epoxy and solvent free Epoxy / Polyurethane top coat and concrete
Eco-friendly, being water based formulation
It can be applied on metal and wood also
Application Procedure:
While applying SMAC® EPOPRIME coat, surface preparation is the most important part. Remove all the loose materials to expose the base surface of the wall. Wash the surface with plenty of water. A 10% muriatic acid solution wash should follow. Again wash the surface with plenty of water. Let the surface dry to SSD (saturated surface dry) condition. Fill all the cracks, honey-combs, voids etc using cement mortar or our POLYPATCH C fast repair compound. Mix the resin & hardener parts of SMAC® EPOPRIME thoroughly, to get a uniform consistency. Remove any lumps. Apply a coat of SMAC EPOPRIME liberally by brush over the surface. Allow the surface to be touch-dry. The surface is now ready for final Epoxy or Polyurethane coating. Apply the necessary topcoat over this primer coat for best results.
