Substrate

Properties/tests

• The substrate must be dry, solid, clean, dust-free, absorbent, load-bearing and free of separating agents, corrosive components or other layers that could interfere with the bond.
• In principle, the substrate must be suitable for the coating system.
• The adhesive tensile strength of the substrate must be at least 1.5 N/mm².
• The substrate moisture content for cementitious substrates must be < 4.0 CM%, anhydrite screeds: < 0.5 CM%.
• The compressive strength of the substrate should be at least 25 N/mm².
• The substrate must be protected against rising and penetrating moisture.

Pretreatment

• The floor surface must be prepared by e.g. dust-free shot blasting, diamond grinding, milling or other suitable measures. The grain structure must be exposed and all separating substances and loose components must be removed thoroughly. Substrates whose surfaces have been treated with smoothing agents (waxes) must always be removed by milling and subsequent shot blasting.
• Compatibility with old coatings must be checked, non-load-bearing layers and coatings must be completely removed.
• Asphalt-containing screeds are difficult substrates due to their deformability under mechanical and thermal stress. They can therefore only be coated with special systems. Please contact our technical service for more information.
• In the case of existing fixed tile coverings, the surface must be removed by diamond grinding or milling. The glaze must be completely removed.
• All substrate preparations must be carried out by suitable specialist companies.
• The product itself or HADALAN Pripor 12E must be used to prime the load-bearing substrate.
• In the case of existing roughness depths, carry out scratch filling or roughness depth compensation.
• Expansion joints must be incorporated into the top layer; reworking is not permitted.
• Depending on the color tone of the flow coating and high-contrast substrates, we recommend always preparing the substrate with a scratch leveler in the same color tone.

Processing

Processing

• First stir up the resin component and add the hardener component completely to the resin component. Mix the components homogeneously using a slow-speed agitator (approx. 400 rpm with stirring paddle). The mixing time is 2 minutes. Ensure that no excessive air is stirred into the material. After homogeneous mixing, the material is poured into a clean container, HADALAN FGM003 57M in the color white is added and mixed again.
• The mixed leveling compound is then quickly spread over the substrate in an even layer using a squeegee or smoothing trowel.
• Finally, deaerate the material with the spiked roller in a crosswise motion.
• To adjust the flow properties in the lower temperature range, up to 2 % HADALAN EPV 38L can be added. Alternatively, the quantity of HADALAN FGM003 57M can be reduced by up to 30 %.

Cleaning the tools

• Clean tools immediately after use with HADALAN EPV 38L.

Notes

• Maintain a processing temperature of +8 °C to +25 °C.
• The application distances for multi-layer coatings must be observed.
• High temperatures accelerate, low temperatures delay the solidification and curing process.
• The substrate temperature must be at least 3 °C above the dew point temperature during application and curing.
• Epoxy resins are not permanently color stable.
• Pour the material out of the container immediately after mixing.
• Only use materials from one batch.
• With coating systems that can be applied by hand traces of application may remain visible This applies in particular to grazing light or larger contiguous areas, create a sample area if necessary.
• To maintain the surface quality of the coating, the use of care products and regular cleaning of the floors is recommended (see HADALAN epoxy resin flooring care instructions).
• Abrasive loads lead to white cracking on the surface. To reduce this, we recommend subsequently sealing the surface with a topcoat.
