Always verify that EPOXY-XMARK <br />(and the selected colored aggregate) meet the specified project <br />requirements. <br />Site Mock-up: <br />Aquafin recommends installation of a small field sample of min. 10 ft² (0.9 <br />m²) at the project site or other pre-selected area as agreed to by owner’s <br />representative and applicator. <br />• Apply all materials to field sample area in the correct sequence. Follow <br />all manufacturer’s written instructions. <br />• Maintain field sample during construction for workmanship comparison. <br />Use field sample as standard for judging color and texture on remainder <br />of project. Do not alter, move, or destroy field sample until work is <br />completed and approved by owner’s representative.</p> <p>Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Physical and Technical Data <br />Mixing Ratio:</p> <p>1 part A:1 part B</p> <p>Viscosity <br />@ 77°F (25°C):</p> <p>1700 cps</p> <p>Gel Time (60 g mass):</p> <p>20 minutes</p> <p>Tack Free Time <br />@ 77°F (25°C):</p> <p>3-5 hours</p> <p>Recoat Time, ASTM D1640:</p> <p>3 hours</p> <p>Initial Cure Time <br />@ 80°F (27°C): <br />@ 75°F (24°C): <br />@ 70°F (21°C): <br />@ 65°F (18°C): <br />@ 60°F (15°C):</p> <p>2.5 hours <br />3 hours <br />4 hours <br />5 hours <br />6 hours</p> <p>Compressive Strength, ASTM C579 <br />@ 2 hours: <br />@ 24 hours: <br />@ 7 days:</p> <p>1500 psi (10 MPa) <br />5,000 psi (34 MPa) <br />5,200 psi (35 MPa)</p> <p>Compressive Strength, ASTM D695 <br />@ 7 days:</p> <p>5,000 psi (35 MPa)</p> <p>Compressive Modulus, ASTM D695 <br />@ 7 days:</p> <p>110,000 psi (758 MPa)</p> <p>Tensile Strength, ASTM D638:</p> <p>2,800 psi (19 MPa)</p> <p>Tensile Strength, ASTM C307:</p> <p>2,900 psi (20 MPa)</p> <p>Tensile Elongation, ASTM D638:</p> <p>40%</p> <p>Tensile Elongation, ASTM C307:</p> <p><1%</p> <p>Bond Strength to Concrete, ASTM C1583: 300 psi (2 MPa) <br />Slant Shear, ASTM C882 <br />@ 2 days: <br />@ 7 days:</p> <p>2,000 psi (14 MPa) <br />2,800 psi (19 MPa)</p> <p>Flexural Strength, ASTM D790:</p> <p>3,000 psi (21 MPa)</p> <p>Shrinkage on Cure, ASTM D2566:</p> <p>0.2%</p> <p>Water Absorption, ASTM D570 <br />@ 24 hours:</p> <p>0.2%</p> <p>Chloride Ion Permeability, AASHTO T277:</p> <p>0.0 Coulomb</p> <p>Thermal Compatibility, ASTM C884:</p> <p>Pass</p> <p>VOCs:</p> <p>0 g/L</p> <p>All data are average values obtained under laboratory conditions.

Widespread deterioration will require repaving prior to the <br />application of EPOXY-XMARK. <br />• Asphalt must be at least 30 days old. <br />• Repair all areas of damage, deterioration, weakness, and <br />potholes, using suitable, high-quality materials approved <br />for asphalt repair. Replace all temporary surface patches <br />with full-depth or deep patches. All repair areas must be <br />rectangular in shape, and have saw cut straight edges. <br />Follow MS-16 Asphalt in Pavement Preservation and <br />Maintenance methods and procedures. <br />• Fill cracks with high-quality materials designed for asphalt <br />crack repair in DOT applications. <br />• Prepare asphalt surfaces and remove markings by shotblasting or high pressure water blasting according to agency <br />specifications. Allow to dry. <br />• Immediately before application, clean dry asphalt surfaces by <br />high-pressure air blasting using oil-free compressed air. <br />• CONCRETE: Overlays using EPOXY-XMARK are not a replacement for <br />repairing damaged, deteriorated, or cracked, concrete pavement or <br />concrete structures. <br />• Concrete must be at least 30 days old, and must have <br />reached a minimum 3,000 psi (20 MPa) compressive <br />strength. <br />• Repair all areas of spalling, delamination, damage, <br />deterioration, potholes, and cracks using a suitable concrete <br />repair product such as MORTAR-40 CI. All repair areas must <br />have saw cut straight edges with a minimum 3/8” (10 mm) <br />depth as per ICRI Guideline 310.1R–2008. <br />• Fill cracks with high-quality materials designed for concrete <br />crack repair in DOT applications. <br />• Mechanically prepare concrete surfaces to achieve a <br />minimum CSP (concrete surface profile) of 4 as per ICRI <br />Guideline No. 310.2R-13, Selecting and Specifying <br />Concrete Surface Preparation for Sealers, Coatings, Polymer <br />Overlays, and Concrete Repair. <br />• Use high pressure water blasting to remove all debris. Allow <br />to dry. <br />• Immediately before application, clean dry concrete surfaces <br />by high-pressure air blasting using oil-free compressed air. <br />Mixing: <br />• Epoxy resins are temperature sensitive and care should be taken to <br />condition all components to between 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C) <br />for a minimum of 24 hrs. prior to mixing and placement. <br />• Use chemical resistant gloves and goggles when mixing EPOXY-XMARK. <br />1. D <br /> o not alter mixing ratios. The volume mixing ratio is 1 part component <br />A to1 part component B (1A:1B). <br />2. P re-mix the “A” and “B” components of EPOXY-XMARK individually <br />to ensure all raw materials are dispersed uniformly. Then accurately <br />measure out each part by volume before combining together. <br />3. C <br /> ombine A and B components of EPOXY-XMARK, 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 />Once mixed, apply immediately! <br />Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Colored Aggregate Selection for Road Demarcation: <br />Certain types, shapes, sizes, and colors of aggregate may be required in <br />order to comply with codes and regulations for road and crossing zone <br />demarcation projects . Always verify aggregate choice with administering <br />agency/project owner before beginning project. All aggregate used with <br />EPOXY-XMARK must be clean, washed, dry and bagged. <br />Application: <br />Read all instructions thoroughly prior to installation. <br />• Air and substrate temperatures must be between 50°F to 95°F (10°C <br />to 35°C). Temperatures must be maintained in this range for at least 8 <br />hours after the application. <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 />• Colored Overlays Applied by Hand for Single Course Application: <br />After mixing, immediately pour EPOXY-XMARK onto the asphalt or <br />concrete in ribbons. Distribute and spread material evenly using a <br />3/16” to 1/4” V-notched rubber squeegee at a rate of 40 sq. ft. <br />per gallon. Immediately, broadcast clean, dry aggregate until refusal <br />(approx. 10 lbs of aggregate per sq. yd.). Allow to cure. Remove excess <br />aggregate. <br />Protection: <br />Protect areas from pedestrian traffic for at least 48 hours. [based on 75°F <br />(24°C)]. Protect areas from vehicle traffic for at least 72 hours [based on <br />75°F (24°C)].</p> <p>Clean-up: <br />Clean tools and equipment with acetone or similar product immediately <br />after use. Cured material must be removed mechanically. Soaking tools in <br />an epoxy-stripper will help when mechanical removal is necessary. <br />Limitations: <br />• Do not mix more material than can be used within 15 minutes [based on <br />77°F (25°C) and 50% RH]. <br />• Do not thin with solvents, or dilute in any manner. <br />• Do not apply EPOXY-XMARK over magnesium phosphate cement <br />concrete. <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 />• 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.
