Application Directions
Substrate Preparation
By mechanical or other suitable means, ensure all loose particles, including dust, laitance, grease, coatings, curing compounds and other foreign matter are removed.
Mixing
Add Part B, liquid hardener to the Enviro Shield Part A base. Mix using slow speed mechanical mixing equipment with suitable mixing paddle attached. Mix for 5 minutes or until uniform. Allow to stand 10 minutes after mixing.
Application
Mix only sufficient material for use within 1 hour as mixed material will not be suitable for use after 1 hour. Enviro Shield can be applied using brush, roller or airless spray. Apply two coats of Enviro Shield to achieve a minimum dry film thickness (DFT) of 0.3mm for hydrostatic applications and 0.15mm for priming. Allow a minimum of 4 hours drying before overcoating.
Estimating Data (Theoretical)
The consumption of Enviro Shield will depend upon substrate condition and type. As a guide: 1 litre of Enviro Shield will cover approximately 3.3m² based on a 0.150mm Dry Film thickness (DFT)
Packaging
Enviro Shield is supplied in 20ltr and 8ltr kits proportioned ready for mixing.
Curing
Enviro Shield generally can be recoated after allowing to dry for 24 hours at 25°C. If used as a primer, over coat within 3 days. Enviro Shield is not recommended for full immersion applications.
Cleaning
Enviro Shield should be removed from all tools and equipment, prior to hardening with water. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.
Shelf Life
Enviro Shield can be stored in its original sealed containers for 12 months in controlled environments.
Safety Advice
Cured Enviro Shield films are environmentally friendly. Always provide adequate ventilation and wear appropriate Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) during use. If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting, have plenty of water or milk. Seek immediate medical advice. Wash off splashes of material with clean water and soap. If irritation occurs seek medical advice. Refer to MSDS.
