Please consult the technical data sheet for full technical product data.

Preparation:
Flortex EPS should only be applied to a well prepared, abraded (by shotblasting or similar), clean, dry surface, free of oil and grease.
If applying Flortex EPS to a metal surface, this will need priming first with EPS Primer.

Mixing:
Having fully prepared the substrate, stir the individual components before mixing together. Add part ‘B’ to part ‘A’ and thoroughly mix for at least 3 minutes. For best results use a heavy duty slow speed drill with a mixing paddle. Ensure thorough mixing as an unmixed product will result in a poor or non-cure situation.

Application:
Apply by brush, roller or airless spray, making sure that the surface is completely covered. Particular attention should be given to protrusions and other areas of high potential wear. When finished, DO NOT scrape the remaining contents from the container as this will invariably include unmixed raw resin.
