Steel Surface
Preparation:
Remove dirt, grease and oil with suitable industrial grade cleaner. Remove
dust and mill scale by sandblasting to a white metal finish. Follow by
vacuum cleaning or oil free dry blasting. Be sure the surface is completely
dry (and cool if sandblasted or torch cleaned) before applying Aluma-Plate.
For large areas or for overhead or vertical side wall installations, use of
welded hangers, anchor studs or tack-welded expanded metal is recommended
for support.
Mixing:
Individually
mix both the resin container (Part A) and the bottle of hardener (Part B)
thoroughly in the unlikely event that any settling has occurred. After
mixing, add entire contents of hardener bottle (Part B) to resin container
(Part A) and thoroughly mix also. Blend the two thoroughly in the container
supplied. The components are pigmented to ensure proper mixing. Mix until a
uniform light purple color is achieved. Mix completely and scrape sides and
bottom of container — be sure all “stripes” of unmixed materials from the
sides and bottom of container are thoroughly blended. DO NOT add water,
sand, Portland cement or other fillers to the epoxy matrix. When mixing, use
rubber gloves to avoid contact with skin.
Application:
Use as a patching or lining compound. Install at a nominal thickness of
1/8”-1/4” by troweling or “buttering.” Allow installation to cure, and
protect it from water and weather for a minimum of 24 hours at 70°F (21°C).
For cold weather application, heat surface to be coated so that it is
approximately 70°F.
Coverage:
One U.S.
gallon of Aluma-Plate contains material to cover 252 cubic inches (4130 cm)
or 7 square feet at 1/4" thick (0.65 square meter at 6 mm thickness)
surface.
Cure Time:
Maximum pot
life at 70°F (21°C) is 30 minutes. Initial set time is two to three hours.
Final cure is 24 hours (75%) and 100% curing achieved in seven days. Note:
The lower the ambient temperature, the longer the curing time.
Warning:
Harmful
vapor, use in good ventilation — may cause burns or allergic reactions
Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing
In case of contact, wash thoroughly with warm water and soap
In case of contact with eyes — flush eyes with water immediately for at
least 15 minutes and get immediate attention.
