APPLICATION
METHOD :
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
(NS) may be applied to damp concrete surfaces without fear of delamination
and adhesion loss.

combination.
