VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR shortens <br />the initial curing time of VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 or VAPORTIGHT <br />COAT®-SG3, permitting sooner application of the next layer in the <br />installation system. <br />Typical Applications: <br />• Mix with VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 or VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG3 <br />Advantages: <br />• High reactivity <br />• Low viscosity <br />• Facilitates faster project completion by reducing lag time between <br />VAPORTIGHT COAT products and the subsequent membrane, coating, <br />roofing system, or flooring system. <br />• Promotes faster drying of multiple coat applications of VAPORTIGHT <br />COAT®-SG2 or VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG3. <br />Substrate Preparation: <br />Refer to the VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 or VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG3 <br />Technical Data Sheet for information on surface preparation. <br />Mixing: <br />• Epoxy-based coatings are temperature sensitive and care should be <br />taken to condition the “A” and “B” components and VAPORTIGHT <br />COAT® ACCELERATOR to between 65°F to 75°F (18°C to 24°C) <br />prior to mixing. <br />• Use chemical resistant gloves and goggles when mixing VAPORTIGHT <br />COAT® ACCELERATOR. <br />• VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR must be mixed with <br />VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 or VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG3. <br />• Always mix full units of VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR. See <br />Charts on page 2 for guidance in ordering correct unit quantities. <br />• SG2: Mix two units of VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR <br />with 2.2 gal (8.5 L) of VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2. <br />• SG3: Mix one unit of VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR <br />with 2.4 gal (9.2 L) of VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG3. <br />Note: For mixing quantities with 7.3 gal (27.6 L) of VAPORTIGHT COAT®Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Material</p> <p>Epoxy catalyst</p> <p>Color:</p> <p>Clear, brownish liquid</p> <p>Density @ 77°F (25°C):</p> <p>8.1 lbs/gal (0.97 kg/L)</p> <p>Volume Solids:</p> <p>100%</p> <p>Viscosity @ 77°F (25°C):</p> <p>150 - 380 cps (mPa.s)</p> <p>Pot Life @ 73°F (23°C):</p> <p>~20 minutes</p> <p>VOC:</p> <p>0 g/L</p> <p>All data are average values obtained under laboratory conditions.

Add correct number of VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR unit(s) to <br />the RESIN (Part A) of VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 or -SG3 and mix to a <br />uniform consistency. <br />2. Then combine this mixture with the HARDENER (Part B) of VAPORTIGHT <br />COAT®-SG2 or -SG3. Mix for approx. 5 minutes to a homogenous, <br />streak free consistency, using a slow speed drill (approx. 300 rpm) with <br />a PS Jiffy blade. <br />3. Avoid entrapping air. Ensure that the material at the bottom and sides of <br />the container are scraped and thoroughly mixed. <br />4. Pour mixed material from the mixing container into another, clean <br />container and carefully mix for additional 30 seconds. <br />Once mixed, apply immediately! <br />Application: <br />Read all instructions thoroughly prior to installation. <br />• Refer to the corresponding VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 or <br />VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG3 Technical Data Sheet for all application <br />instructions. <br />Curing: <br />•A <br /> llow to cure for minimum 6 hours [based on 73°F (23°C)]. <br />Clean-up: <br />EQUIPMENT: Immediately clean all equipment and tools with mineral <br />spirits. Cured material can only be removed mechanically. <br />MATERIAL: Collect with absorbent material. Flush area with water. Dispose <br />of in accordance with local, state and federal disposal regulations.</p> <p>Packaging: <br />VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR is available in a 16 oz (0.47 L) <br />cone top container, net fill 4.7 fl. oz (0.13 L) <br />Shelf Life: <br />2 years in closed, original packaging, stored in a dry, cool place. <br />Page 1 of 2</p> <p>(updated 1/11/23-EK/VB/AC)</p> <p>VAPORTIGHT COAT® ACCELERATOR <br />Limitations: <br />• Do not alter mixing ratios, thin, or dilute under any circumstance. <br />• Do not mix more material than can be used within 20 minutes [based on <br />73°F (23°C)]. <br />• Do not mix multiple units of VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG2 or <br />VAPORTIGHT COAT®-SG3 at once with VAPORTIGHT COAT® <br />ACCELERATOR. <br />• Large mixed batches, high substrate temperatures, high air temperatures, <br />high humidity, and thicker applications will significantly reduce the pot <br />life and significantly accelerate the cure time. <br />• Low substrate temperatures, low air temperatures, and low humidity will <br />extend the curing time. <br />• Once containers have been opened, use all material immediately. <br />Note: <br />Proper use is the responsibility of the applicator. Applicators are expected <br />to know and follow industry standards.
