PROTECTIVE COATINGS

Product Details:

Uses:

Dekguard PU provides an easily cleaned chemical and UV resistant protective coating, and suitable for external waterproofing also.

Advantages:

Durable: Low maintenance costs

Non-yellowing: Will not yellow on exposure to UV rays.

Hygienic: Seamless surface, easily cleaned

Impermeable: Excellent resistance to chemicals and gases

Description:

Dekguard PU is a two component, pigmented, aliphatic polyurethane coating possessing good resistance to long-term exposure of UV rays.

Technical Support:

Fosroc offers technical support and service to specifiers and contractors as well as on-site assistance.

Application instructions:

Surface preparation: All surfaces must be smooth, sound and free from debris, loose or flaking material and areas of standing water. Surfaces must be free from contamination such as oil, grease, dust, loose particles and organic growth. Concrete surfaces must be fully cured, latency free and free from any traces of shuttering, release oils and curing compounds.

All surfaces should then be grit blasted to remove all foreign matter and open up blow-holes, and provide a suitable key for Dekguard PU. All blow holes and imperfections should be filled with a suitable putty.

Coverage:

The theoretical coverage is 10 sq.m /ltr/coat at 30 - 40 microns DFT. However practical coverage may vary depending on the porosity of substrate, application thickness etc.

Mixing:

The individual components should be thoroughly stirred before mixing them together. The components should then be mechanically mixed together for atleast 3 minutes using a slow speed ( 400 - 500 RPM) drill machine attached with a mixing paddle.

Application:

Apply Dekguard PU with a nylon brush, or a flat pile felt roller, to the prepared substrate at a wet film thickness of 80 microns ( 40 microns DFT). Allow Dekguard PU first coat to dry for 2-4 hours at 30 DegreeC and then apply the second coat.

Curing This coating will become tack free in approximately 2 - 4 hours and be fully cured in 5 days.

Number of coats:

Two finish coats are recommended unless used as a top coat for freshly applied epoxies. Cleaning Clean tools and equipment immediately after use with Nitocote Sol. Wash hands and skin with soap, or an industrial hand cleaner.

Limitations:

Minimum ambient surface and material temperature must be between 10 to 40 DegreeC. For applications outside this range, contact Fosroc for advice. Application of the product should be always on dry substrates. Moisture in the substrate can lead to pin holes and blisters in the coating.

Precautions:

Health & Safety:

Rubber gloves and/or barrier creams, protective clothing, goggles and respirator should be worn. Provide sufficient mechanical and/or local exhaust ventilation to maintain easy working conditions.

Application instructions

• Preparation All surface should be dry and free from contamination such as oil, grease, loose particles, decayed matter, moss, algae growth, laitance, and all traces of mould release oils and curing compounds. This is best achieved by lightly grit blasting the surface. Where moss, algae or similar growths have occurred, treatment with a proprietary biocide should be carried out after the grit blasting process.
• It is essential to produce an unbroken coating of Dekguard Standard system. To ensure this is achieved, surfaces containing blowholes or similar areas of pitting should first be filled using a suitable fairing coat.
• Application In order to obtain the protective properties of the Dekguard Standard system, it is important that the correct rates of application and over coating time are observed.

Nitoprime 25 Concrete Repair Sealant is epoxy resin-based primer for concrete surfaces.

Uses:

• Nitoprime 25 is suitable for priming concrete surfaces prior to the application of any of the Nitoflor SL2000/4000, TS / TF range of resin-based floor toppings, Nitocote range of protective coatings or Nitomortar range of epoxy repair mortars.

Advantages:

• Can be applied even on damp surfaces
• Improves the adhesion of epoxy floor toppings and mortars with the substrate.

Description:

• Nitoprime 25 is a two component epoxy based primer with good penetrating properties for concrete surfaces.

Technical support:

• Fosroc provides a countrywide technical advisory service supported by a team of specialists in the field.

Application instructions:
Surface preparation:

• Thorough surface preparation is vital. For best results Fosroc recommends mechanical preparation techniques. (For example, mechanical scarifying, grit-blasting, sand blasting). For flooring and tanking works, care must be taken to ensure that the substrate does not suffer from rising dampness. If such conditions exist, consult Fosroc.

Precautions:
Health & Safety instructions:

• Nitoprime 25 should not come into contact with skin and eyes or be swallowed. Avoid prolonged inhalation of solvent vapours. Some people are sensitive to epoxy resins, hardeners and solvents. Gloves, goggles and barrier creams should therefore be used while handling the product. Adequate ventilation should be ensured and if working is enclosed areas, suitable breathing apparatus must be used. If the resin comes in contact with skin, it must be removed before it hardens with a resin removing cream, followed by washing with soap and water solvent should not be used. Nitoflor Sol should be washed from skin immediately with soap and water. Should accidental eye contamination occur with any of the above products, it should be washed well with plenty of water and medical advice should be sought. If swallowed medical attention should be sought immediately. Vomiting should not be induced.

Cleaning:

• All tools and equipments should be cleaned with Nitoflor Sol immediately after use. Spillages should be absorbed with sand or sawdust and disposed off in accordance with local regulations several millimeters deep into the concrete. To ensure good adhesion all contamination should be removed and the surface thoroughly cleaned of all dust and loose debris. A thorough detergent wash is also recommended followed by thorough cleaning with clean water and mopping it off to a dry state.

Mixing:

• Add the entire contents of the hardener tin to the base and mix thoroughly for 3 mins. until homogeneous, using a slow speed drill ( 400 - 500 rpm) fitted with a suitable mixing paddle.

Limitations:

• Temperature limitations: Recommended application range is 10 deg C - 40 deg C. Fosroc shall be consulted where application or service is outside the range of 5 deg C to 40 deg C.
