A two component 1:1 ratio, activated polyamide epoxy. ALLPRO Polyamide Epoxy is a durable, flexible, chemically resistant finish for interior or exterior surfaces exposed to corrosive environments. It has been proven by years of exposure to fumes or splashes from solvents, alkalis and moisture.

Machinery, masonry, floors, walls, concrete, steel, tile, fiberglass, porcelain, wood. Excellent for use in food processing plants, waste treatment plants, power generating plants, and marine service.

Will not cure when temperature is below 50^°F. Do not apply when rain is expected. Most high gloss enamels become slippery when wet. To ensure maximum safety on horizontal surfaces, a small amount of sand or pumice may be added to give coating nonskid characteristics. All epoxy coatings will chalk and fade if applied on exterior surfaces subjected to direct sunlight. Under certain environmental conditions, epoxy coatings will yellow. Where color and gloss retention are important, top-coating will be necessary. Will stain with prolonged exposure to brake fluid or in a kennel if exposed to animal waste. This staining will not effect the durability or protective qualities of the coating. Not recommended for use in immersion service or acidic exposures.

6 - 8 hour pot life at 75°F. Will be less at higher temperatures. 30 minute induction period.

All surfaces must be sound, dry, clean and free of oil, grease, dirt, mildew, mill scale, form release agents, curing compounds, loose and flaking paint and any other surface contaminants.

NEW SURFACES:
CONCRETE AND MASONRY - All masonry surfaces must be allowed to cure a minimum of 30 days before painting. Acid etch or abrasive blast all slick, glazed concrete or concrete with laitance. For acid etching, follow all manufacturers directions and safety instructions. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry. Prime concrete with 1 coat of an epoxy pre-primer. New Concrete Block must be filled using an Epoxy Block Filler or an Acrylic Block Filler. Do not coat any masonry surface with a pH above 10.
STEEL AND FERROUS METALS - All direct to metal coatings provide maximum performance over near white metal blasted surfaces [SSPC-SP-10]. There are however, situations and cost considerations which may prevent this type of surface preparation from being done. These coatings have been designed to provide protection over less than ideal surfaces. The recommended standard is a commercial blast [SSPC-SP-6]. The steel profile after the blast should be 1- 2 mils and be jagged in nature. Surfaces must be free of grit dust. The coating should be applied as soon as possible after the blast in order to prevent flash rusting or surface contamination. Hand tool cleaning [SSPC-SP-2] or power tool cleaning [SSPC-SP-3] can be used if blasting is not possible. In areas where adequate surface preparation is not possible, the use of an epoxy pre-primer is recommended. In highly corrosive areas where additional rust inhibitive qualities are required, prime with 1 coat of a zinc rich primer prior to applying epoxy coatings.
GALVANIZED AND NONFERROUS METALS - Solvent clean all surfaces. Apply 1 coat of a Vinyl Wash Primer.

PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES - Can be applied over old thermoset finishes in good condition. Test patches are recommended to check for wrinkling or lifting of existing coatings. An epoxy pre-primer may be used over all existing coatings.

MIXING: Mechanical mixing is recommended for best results. If mixing by hand, stir each component thoroughly with a separate paddle. Pour desired amount of Component A into a clean mixing container. Then add an equal amount of Component B into the container and stir thoroughly. Allow to induct for 30 minutes before using. Be sure to mix only an amount that can be used in 6 hours.

APPLICATION: Apply by brush, roller or spray. Roll: 1/2" lambswool or 3/8" - 1/2" synthetic roller cover. Keep roller wet. Roll in one direction, rewet then crossroll.

Airless Spray settings @ 77º:
Tip Size: .017 - .021
Atomization Pressure: 1000-1500 psi

May be force dried at up to 140ºF. Dries to touch in 6 hours. May be put into service after 12 hours. Recoatable in 16 - 24 hours.

Clean up immediately after use with an epoxy reducer such as Insl-X - TH0250.

Contains solvents dispose of properly.

Caution

Technical Information

DANGER! HARMFUL OR FATAL IF SWALLOWED. FLAMMABLE LIQUID & VAPOR! VAPOR HARMFUL. MAY AFFECT THE BRAIN OR NERVOUS SYSTEM CAUSING DIZZINESS, HEADACHE OR NAUSEA. CAUSES EYE, NOSE, THROAT AND SKIN IRRITATION. MAY BE HARMFUL IF ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN. CONTAINS BENZYL ALCOHOL, XYLENE AND HIGH FLASH NAPHTHA.

NOTICE: Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and central nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling contents may be harmful or fatal.

Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. To avoid breathing vapors or spray mist, open windows and doors or use other means to ensure fresh air entry during application an drying. If you experience eye watering, headache or dizziness or if air monitoring demonstrates vapor/mist levels are above applicable limits, wear an appropriate properly fitted respirator (see Code of Federal Regulations 42 CFR 84) during and after application. Follow respirator manufacturer's directions for respirator use. Close container after each use. Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling.

If spilled, contain spilled material and remove with inert absorbent. Dispose of contaminated absorbent, container and unused contents in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.

WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

FIRST AID: in case of contact, immediately flush eyes or skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention immediately. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes. If you experience difficulty in breathing, leave the area to obtain fresh air. If continued difficulty is experienced, get medical assistance immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Call physician immediately. In case of medical emergency, contact 1-800-424-9300.
