Description

An epoxy/coal tar-based coating and waterproofing membrane. It is applied to metal and concrete surfaces. It provides excellent waterproofing of the coated surface. In this way, it protects foundations and concrete walls below ground and under water against corrosion.

Advantages

  • Thanks to its excellent adhesion to the substrate, it provides very good waterproofing.
  • There is no risk of it detaching or tearing away from the surface to which it is applied.
  • Elastic.
  • Can be applied even to damp surfaces.
  • Its long pot life makes it very easy to use.

Suitable Substrates

  • Concrete surfaces
  • Metal surfaces

Surface Preparation and Application

  • The surface to be coated must be free of oil, rust, dust and similar contaminants, and free of moisture.
  • Unsound parts of the surface should be removed.
  • The prepared concrete surface should be primed with the Solvent-Free Epoxy Impregnating Primer DEMCO EPOX 100 PR, following the application instructions.
  • Any cracks and holes in the surface must be repaired using epoxy putty.
  • Mixing: The entire B component should be poured into the A component, and the two components should be mixed for at least 3 minutes until a homogeneous mixture is formed. Mixing at low speed is recommended to prevent air bubbles from forming in the mixture.
  • Do not thin the product with thinner.
  • DEMCO EPOX 1750 FLEX/TAR is applied onto the prepared and primed surface with a squeegee, notched trowel or airless spray.
  • Any gas bubbles that form are removed with a spiked roller.

CAUTION! Designed for horizontal floors; it may run and sag on vertical surfaces.

Application Conditions

  • Working area temperature must be 15°C – 30°C.
  • The ideal substrate temperature is 15°C – 30°C. The temperature must never be below 10°C.
  • For indoor and outdoor applications, substrate temperature, ambient temperature and ambient humidity must be taken into account.
  • For 24 hours after application, the surface must not be touched or come into contact with water.
  • A suitable amount of mixture should be prepared during work, and work should continue until the entire mixture has been used.
  • When applied at 20 – 25°C, DEMCO EPOX 1750 FLEX/TAR reaches full cure at room temperature in an average of 7 days.

Coverage

A thickness of 1 mm is achieved in a single coat at a consumption of 1450 g/m². The recommended thickness varies depending on the mechanical strength required by the application.
