WATER BASED EPOXY

APPLICATION:
This material is designed primarily as a coating for application on clean concrete surfaces. For maximum adhesion, always etch concrete with a 25% solution (in water) of muriatic acid, and allow to stand for 15 minutes. Then flush thoroughly with clean water and allow to dry completely before coating. Unlike solvent-borne sealers, WATER BASED EPOXY may be applied to damp concrete surfaces without fear of delamination and adhesion loss.

CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS:
Do not take internally. Avoid contact with eyes. If solution does come in contact with eyes, flush immediately with water and contact a physician for medical attention. Users of organic coatings such as this material should always wear Bureau of Mines approved paint vapor respirator, which employs two-stage filtering/i.e. cotton and charcoal combination.
