SURFACE PREPARATION & PRECAUTIONS:

General Instructions:

1. Mixing ratio: 3:1 by volume, Paint and Hardener. Mix only enough paint for use in one session or paint job.
2. WARNING! Pot life of mixed Paint and Hardener is around 1 hour at room temperature. Excess mixture that are not used up will gel within the day.
3. Avoid painting under extreme environmental conditions and/or bad weather conditions.
4. Do not put mixed components back into its original container.
5. Clean up excess material with A-Plus® PG Epoxy Reducer while material has not cured.
6. MIX WELL BEFORE USING.

For Concrete Flooring:

1. Ensure proper surface preparation by removing any oil and dirt by detergent cleaning.
2. Sand or use a mechanical floor grinder with large grit to roughen and level the surface, allowing the paint enhanced grip and adhesion.
3. Rinse the concrete thoroughly with water to wash away residues that could affect paint adhesion. Allow ample time for the concrete surface to dry.
4. To repair large concrete surface imperfections, use either of the following:

– A-Plus Procrete® Low Viscosity Construction Epoxy – used for patching medium-sized concrete imperfections covering a large area.
– A-Plus Procrete® High Viscosity Construction Epoxy – used for patching larger-sized concrete imperfections covering smaller areas.

For Metal Surfaces:

1. Remove dust, dirt, grease, oil, wax and other foreign matter using a rag soaked in paint thinner.
2. For repainting, use A-Plus Supertanggal® Paint Remover to strip off old paint film to bare substrate then remove oil and grease by detergent cleaning followed by scuff sanding. To remove rust, wire brush or strip affected areas after applying A-Plus® Rust Converter. Let it sit for 10 – 15 minutes before washing off surface thoroughly with water, letting it dry before applying paint.
3. Primer should be applied immediately upon drying of the surface before rust sets in.

For Wooden Surfaces:

1. Ensure proper surface preparation by removing any oil and dirt by scuff sanding.
2. For repainting, use A-Plus Supertanggal® Paint Remover to strip off old paint film to bare substrate then remove oil and grease by detergent cleaning followed by scuff sanding.

PAINTING PROCEDURE:

Mixing Direction:

1. Stir and shake both components separately before mixing together.
2. Slowly add the hardener to the paint and mix slowly and thoroughly for 5-10 minutes before application.
3. Mixing ratio is 3:1 paint to catalyst, respectively. For better mixing, transfer both components to a larger container.

Application Over Steel Floors:

1. Apply 1 coat of A-Plus Floor Guard® Epoxy Floor Coating as topcoat using either a v-notched trowel or a v-notched squeegee. Tip: Pour a generous amount of the paint on the floor then spread evenly using the selected application tool.
2. Use a spiked roller to remove any trapped air from the coating.
3. Allow the surface to cure overnight before subjecting to light traffic. Allow the surface to cure for at least 3-7 days before subjecting to heavy traffic.

Application Over Concrete Floors (Plain Finish Without Aggregates):

1. Apply 1 coat of A-Plus Floor Guard® Concrete Sealer using a short nap roller or paint brush. Allow to cure for at least 6 hours before the next step.
2. Apply 1 coat of A-Plus Floor Guard® Epoxy Floor Coating as topcoat using either a v-notched trowel or a v-notched squeegee. Tip: Pour a generous amount of the paint on the floor then spread evenly using the selected application tool.
3. Use a spiked roller to remove any trapped air from the coating.
4. Allow the surface to cure overnight before subjecting to light traffic. Allow the surface to cure for at least 3-7 days before subjecting to heavy traffic.

Application Over Concrete Floors (Non-Skid Finish With Broadcast Aggregates):

1. Apply 1 coat of A-Plus Floor Guard® Concrete Sealer using a short nap roller or paint brush. On the still wet A-Plus Floor Guard® Concrete Sealer, broadcast aggregates at 1kg per sqm. Allow to cure for at least 6 hours before the next step.
2. Apply 1 coat of A-Plus Floor Guard® Epoxy Floor Coating as topcoat using either a v-notched trowel or a v-notched squeegee. Tip: Pour a generous amount of the paint on the floor then spread evenly using the selected application tool.
3. Use a spiked roller to remove any trapped air from the coating.
4. Allow the surface to cure overnight before subjecting to light traffic. Allow the surface to cure for at least 3-7 days before subjecting to heavy traffic.
