Standard acid etching is <br />Page 1 of 4</p> <p>(1/26/23-EKJWAC)</p> <p>EPOXY-Multiuse <br />NOT allowed. The concrete must be dry before application of EPOXYMultiuse. <br />Concrete Moisture Testing: <br />Aquafin recommends moisture testing of all concrete slabs prior to <br />application of EPOXY-Multiuse. However, moisture testing is only a <br />guideline and can be influenced by environmental factors. When in <br />doubt, contact Aquafin Technical Department or your local Aquafin Sales <br />Representative for information about Aquafin VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG <br />products. <br />• Interior Concrete Slabs: Aquafin recommends testing to determine <br />moisture vapor emission rate (MVER) including “Anhydrous Calcium <br />Chloride” testing as per ASTM F 1869 on slabs to be treated, to <br />determine the MVER in lb/1000 ft2•24 hrs (grams/m2•hr) and to <br />determine RH content (%) as per ASTM F 2170. Do not use EPOXYMultiuse as a base coat/primer when readings are higher than 3 lbs <br />MVER or 80% RH. <br />Mixing: <br />• Epoxy resins are temperature sensitive and care should be taken to <br />condition all components to between 70°F to 80°F (20°C to 26°C) <br />for a minimum of 24 hrs. prior to mixing and placement. Large units of <br />EPOXY-Multiuse may need 48 hrs. <br />• Use chemical resistant gloves and goggles when mixing EPOXYMultiuse. <br />1. D <br /> o not alter mixing ratios. The volume mixing ratio is 2 parts component <br />A to1 part component B (2A:1B). <br />2. P re-mix the “A” and “B” components of EPOXY-Multiuse individually <br />to ensure all raw materials are dispersed uniformly. When using the <br />larger 15 gal or 150 gal kit, accurately measure out each part before <br />combining together. When using the 1.5 gal and 3 gal size kit, mix a <br />complete kit of EPOXY-Multiuse in the proportions supplied. <br />3. C <br /> ombine A and B components of EPOXY-Multiuse, and mix to a uniform <br />consistency (approx. 3 - 5 minutes) using a slow speed drill (approx. <br />300 to 450 rpm) with a jiffy mixing blade. Occasionally scrape the <br />bottom and sides of the container while mixing. Avoid entrapping air. Do <br />not mix in an up and down motion. <br />4. (optional additions to the mix) <br />• Color Packs (when using EPOXY-Multiuse Color Packs): <br />Add an EPOXY-Multiuse Color Pack to the EPOXY-Multiuse <br />mixture and mix again (approx. 3 minutes) to a homogenous <br />streak-free color and consistency. <br />• Aggregate (when using EPOXY-Multiuse as a trowel-applied <br />mortar): Reserve enough mixed EPOXY-Multiuse to be used <br />neat as a base coat/primer in the application area. Then <br />add clean, washed, dry, tri-blend aggregate to the remaining <br />mix. The use of 3/8” pea gravel is recommended in addition <br />to the tri-blend aggregate when applying at 2” (50 mm) thick. <br />As a general rule, the epoxy mortar should be applied 3 <br />times the thickness of the maximum aggregate size used in the <br />mix. The ratio of EPOXY-Multiuse to aggregate is typically 75 <br />lbs. of aggregate per gal. of EPOXY-Multiuse. <br />Once mixed, apply immediately! <br />Application: <br />Read all instructions thoroughly prior to installation. <br />• Air and substrate temperatures must be between 60°F to 90°F (16°C <br />to 32°C). <br />• Dew Point must be 5°F (3°F) or more below the surface temperature. <br />• Do not apply if humidity is at or above 95%. <br />• Base coat/primer, floor coating, grout coat/lock coat, <br />or topcoat (neat): After mixing, immediately pour EPOXYCheck our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Multiuse onto the concrete in ribbons. Distribute and spread <br />material evenly using a V-notched rubber squeegee and <br />3/8” nap non-shedding phenolic core roller. Use a 3” <br />disposable brush where required for cutting-in. Back-roll and <br />cross-roll all areas to facilitate a smooth finish. Measure the <br />thickness of each coat using a wet film gauge. As a minimum, <br />it is recommended to check the mil thickness in every corner, <br />plus the center areas of the room. Large areas will require <br />many check points. When applying multiple coats, verify <br />that the total WFT (wet film thickness) meets the stated <br />recommendations. See coverage chart for recommended <br />WFT (wet film thickness), depending on the type of use. <br />Allow to cure, pay close attention to recoat times, and apply <br />the next coat in the system within 24 hours [based on 75°F <br />(24°C) and 50% RH]. <br />• Floor coating with sand broadcast: Follow above instructions <br />for coating application, and then immediately (within 2 <br />minutes) broadcast clean, oven dried #20 - 50 silica sand <br />[ASTM E11 No. 18 - 35 sieve size (0.5 - 1.0 mm dia.)] <br />to “rejection” (full broadcast), or at a rate up to 30 - 50 <br />lb/100ft2 (1.5 kg/m2) into the fresh/wet layer of EPOXYMultiuse. Allow to cure for approx. 48 hours [based on 75°F <br />(24°C) and 50% RH]. Remove excess sand by sweeping, <br />vacuuming, and compressed air. Allow to cure, pay close <br />attention to recoat times, and apply a grout coat/lock coat <br />of EPOXY-Multiuse within 24 hours [based on 75°F (24°C) <br />and 50% RH]. Allow to cure, pay close attention to recoat <br />times, and then apply a topcoat of EPOXY-Multiuse within 24 <br />hours [based on 75°F (24°C) and 50% RH]. <br />• Trowel-applied Mortar: After applying EPOXY-Multiuse <br />(neat) to the application area as a base coat/primer, pour <br />EPOXY-Multiuse mixed with aggregate onto the application <br />area while base coat/primer coat is still fresh/wet. Spread <br />material using a trowel or a gauge rake and finish with <br />a flat trowel to create a smooth surface. Mortar can be <br />applied up to 2” (5 cm) in a single lift. Allow to cure and pay <br />close attention to recoat times. If a grout coat/lock coat is <br />required, apply within 24 hours [based on 75°F (24°C) and <br />50% RH]. Allow to cure, pay close attention to recoat times, <br />and then apply a topcoat of EPOXY-Multiuse within 24 hours <br />[based on 75°F (24°C) and 50% RH]. <br />Note: A clear topcoat of EPOXY-Multiuse (neat) in the Clear color will <br />extend the life of the coating system, and is generally recommended in all <br />heavy traffic areas. For an additional layer of chemical resistance or gloss, <br />a clear urethane-based finish coat can be applied over the topcoat in any <br />of the applications described above. <br />Clean-up: <br />Clean tools and equipment with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), Xylene, or <br />similar product immediately after use. Cured material must be removed <br />mechanically. Soaking tools in an epoxy-stripper will help when <br />mechanical removal is necessary. <br />Maintenance <br />A good maintenance program will help extend the life of any installed <br />coating and ensure that it is safe for its intended purposes. Aquafin <br />recommends daily cleaning and inspection of the coating with spot repairs <br />as needed. <br />Limitations: <br />• EPOXY-Multiuse is for interior use only. Contact Aquafin Technical <br />Page 2 of 4</p> <p>(1/26/23-EKJWAC)</p> <p>EPOXY-Multiuse <br />Department or your local Aquafin Sales Representative for Aquafin <br />product recommendations in exterior applications. <br />• Do not mix more material than can be used within 20 minutes [based on <br />75°F (24°C) and 50% RH]. <br />• Do not thin or dilute. <br />• High temperatures, high humidity, large batches, and thicker applications <br />will significantly reduce the working time and cure time. Lower <br />temperatures and/or low humidity will extend the cure time. <br />• Contact Aquafin Technical Department or your local Aquafin <br />Representative for guidance in conditions outside the stated temperature <br />limits. <br />• Once containers have been opened, use material as soon as possible. <br />• Scratches in certain colors may appear white. <br />• Color may vary due to batch to batch variation, always “box” different <br />batches to avoid it. <br />Note: <br />Proper application is the responsibility of the user.

Actual coverage may vary due to texture and absorption of substrate. Failure to achieve the recommended mil <br />thickness will compromise product performance. It is the applicator’s responsibility to verify that the recommended mil thickness has been attained. Improved Performance <br />Applications with broadcast do not include sand aggregate in the WFT measurement. The recommended WFT must be achieved neat. The sand aggregate broadcast <br />will add additional thickness. High Performance Applications over VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 must be applied thick enough to completely cover the sand aggregate <br />broadcast over VAPORTIGHT COAT-®SG2 and still achieve the minimum WFT neat. The sand aggregate broadcast over EPOXY-Multiuse will add additional thickness. <br />Coverage for trowel-applied mortar applications will vary, based on the amount of aggregate mixed with EPOXY-Multiuse.</p> <p>Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Page 3 of 4</p> <p>(1/26/23-EKJWAC)</p> <p>EPOXY-Multiuse</p> <p>oxy Color Guide</p> <p>LIMITED WARRANTY: AQUAFIN, INC. warrants this product for a period of one year <br />from the date of installation to be manufactured free of defects and to be consistent <br />with its technical properties as stated in our current Technical Data Sheet.
