When used as a flood coat, EPOXY Healer-Sealer fills fine cracks <br />and penetrates the concrete to form a protective sealer that increases the <br />wear resistance of the concrete surface. <br />Typical Applications: <br />• Bridge decks <br />• Parking decks <br />• Roadways <br />• Airport runways & taxiways <br />• Columns and beams in splash zones <br />• Industrial concrete floors <br />• Primer for subsequent epoxy or urethane deck coatings <br />Advantages: <br />• Cures quickly <br />• Consolidates porous and dusting surfaces <br />• Provides protection from salts and chemicals <br />• Reduces water absorption of the concrete <br />Substrate Preparation: <br />• All surfaces must be dry, clean, and free from loose sand, dirt, dust, oil, <br />grease, sealers, paint, existing coatings, and other foreign substances <br />that could interfere with adhesion. <br />• Concrete must be at least 28 days old, and must have reached a <br />minimum 3,000 psi (20 MPa) compressive strength. Repair all spalled <br />areas of concrete using a suitable concrete repair product such as <br />MORTAR-40 CI. <br />• Remove all contaminants and open surface and cracks by shot-blasting <br />or sandblasting to a minimum concrete surface profile (CSP) of 3 - 4 per <br />the International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI) Guideline No. 301-2R2013. <br />• Remove any remaining dust and debris in cracks and on concrete <br />surface by blowing off with oil-free compressed air. <br />• Clean steel surfaces to white metal according to SSPC SP 5. <br />• Hot surfaces should be cooled and shaded while cold surfaces should <br />be heated and sheltered. <br />Mixing: <br />• Epoxy-acrylic resins are temperature sensitive and care should be taken <br />to condition all components to between 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C) <br />prior to mixing and placement.</p> <p>Check our website for the latest version of the Technical Datasheet. <br />www.aquafin.net</p> <p>Physical and Technical Data <br />Coverage</p> <p>80 ft² -125 ft² per gal</p> <p>Mixing Ratio</p> <p>4 Part-A:1 Part-B</p> <p>Gel Time, <br />(ASTM D2393)</p> <p>13 min</p> <p>Tack-free Time, (ASTM D1640) <br />@ 73°F</p> <p>5.5 - 6.5 hrs</p> <p>Compressive Yield Strength, <br />(ASTM D695)</p> <p>14,990 psi</p> <p>Tensile Strength, <br />(ASTM D638)</p> <p>7,800 psi</p> <p>Hardness, Shore D (ASTM D2240) <br />1 day <br />3 days <br />Weight per gallon, <br />(ASTM D1475)</p> <p>74 <br />83 <br />9.4 lbs</p> <p>Viscosity, (ASTM D2393) <br />@ 73°F</p> <p>75 cps</p> <p>Color</p> <p>Translucent light amber</p> <p>VOC Content</p> <p>0 g/L</p> <p>All data are averages of several tests under laboratory conditions. In practice <br />climatic variations such as temperature, and porosity of substrate may affect these <br />values.</p> <p>• The volume mixing ratio is 4 parts A to 1 part B (4A:1B). Carefully mix <br />each part individually and then accurately measure out the correct <br />volumes of component A and component B before combining together. <br />Mix for at least 3 minutes using a low speed drill with a jiffy mixing <br />blade or paddle. Occasionally scrape the sides of the container while <br />mixing. For best results, mix at slow speeds (300 – 500 rpm) to prevent <br />entraining air, and continue until a homogeneous mixture is achieved. Do <br />not mix in an up and down motion. <br />• EPOXY Healer-Sealer is a thermosetting product. After mixing, apply all <br />material immediately! Do not leave EPOXY Healer-Sealer in the mixing <br />container! <br />Installation: <br />Read all instructions thoroughly prior to installation. <br />• Only proceed with application when the temperatures remain between <br />40°F and 90°F (4.4°C and 32°C) and protect from freezing for 6 <br />hours after application. Do not apply EPOXY Healer-Sealer in wet weather <br />or if rain is imminent. Coating should not become wet within 6 hours <br />after application. To reduce outgassing, outside temperatures should be <br />falling (installation should be done in the late afternoon) and coating <br />should be applied at least 5°F (3°C) above the dew point.</p> <p>Page 1 of 2</p> <p>(updated 8/31/22-EKJWAC)</p> <p>EPOXY Healer-Sealer <br />• Swiftly pour mixed material over the concrete and quickly distribute <br />EPOXY Healer-Sealer evenly over the area to be treated. <br />• Allow EPOXY Healer-Sealer dwell time of 10 minutes so that it has time <br />to penetrate into the concrete and fill cracks. If material is absorbed to <br />quickly, a second application will be necessary. <br />• After 10 minutes, use a squeegee or broom to move all excess material <br />(that has not been absorbed) into the next area to be treated. Continue <br />the process. <br />• After 20 minutes, broadcast dry, #20 mesh sand at a rate of 2 lb/yd². <br />• Allow to cure until no longer tacky. <br />• Remove all excess sand by sweeping and using dry compressed air. <br />Curing: <br />When used as a finished surface: <br />• Allow EPOXY Healer-Sealer to cure to touch until no longer tacky <br />[typically 5 – 6 hrs at 74°F (23°C)]. <br />• Curing time will vary, depending on surface and air temperatures. Cool <br />temperatures will extend the working and curing time. High temperatures <br />will shorten the working time and curing time. <br />• Ensure all areas are entirely tack-free and all sand is completely bonded <br />to EPOXY Healer-Sealer before opening to pedestrian or vehicular <br />traffic. <br />EPOXY Healer-Sealer can also be used as a primer prior to application of <br />certain epoxy or urethane coatings: <br />• Contact Aquafin Technical Services for approval and instructions. <br />Clean-up: <br />EQUIPMENT: Uncured material can be removed with approved solvent. <br />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. <br />Limitations: <br />• Do not thin or dilute. <br />• Do not use on cracks greater than ¼” wide. Contact Aquafin Technical <br />Surfaces for wide crack pre-treatment recommendations. <br />• Do not mix more material than can be used within 20 minutes [based on <br />74°F (23°C)]. <br />• Substrate temperatures should be a minimum of 40°F (4.4°C). <br />• Once containers have been opened, use material as soon as possible. <br />• Consult Aquafin Technical Department when mixing or placing outside <br />of the temperature recommendations listed. <br />• EPOXY Healer-Sealer is translucent and is not designed to be an <br />aesthetic product. Variations in substrate porosity, repair materials, and <br />substrate discoloration will contribute to the end look of the finished <br />product.</p> <p>Packaging: <br />• 5-gallon unit (18.9 L) <br />Component A: (1) 4-gallon pail (15.1 L) <br />Component B: (1) 1-gallon can (3.78 L) <br />• 25-gallon unit (94.6 L) <br />Component A: (4) 5-gallon pails (18.9 L per pail, 75.7 L total) <br />Component B: (1) 5-gallon pail (18.9 L) <br />NOTE: Sand aggregate is sold separately and is not included in kits. <br />Storage and Shelf Life: <br />• 3 years in original unopened container when stored at temperatures <br />between 40°F and 90°F (4.4°C to 32°C). <br />• Keep containers closed, store in a dry, dark, cool place away from <br />heat, and direct sun. <br />• Protect material from freezing and temperatures below 40°F (4.4°C). <br />Safety: <br />Refer to SDS.
