PACKAGING & YIELD
3.2 gal. units - Part A 0.2 gal, Part B 1 gal,Part C 36 lb. (4 x 9 lb. bags)
Coverage: 80 sq. ft./gal (bonding agent) 40 sq. ft./gal (corrosion inhibitor)
APPLICATION
1. SURFACE PREPARATION
Surface must be clean and sound. Remove surface contaminants i.e. dust, grease, curing compounds, impregnations, waxes, foreign particles and disintegrated materials.
Concrete: Sandblast or use other approved mechanical means. Substrate must be saturated surface dry (SSD) with no standing water.
Steel: Sandblast to white metal finish.
2. MIXING
Full kit: Shake parts A and B thoroughly before using. Pour entire contents of parts and A and B in to a clean mixing container. Mix thoroughly for 30 seconds with a Jiffy mixer on a low speed (400-600 rpm) drill. Slowly add the entire contents of part C (aggregate) while continuing to mix for 3 minutes until blended thoroughly. Mix only quantities that can be used within pot life of the material. Do not re-temper.
Partial kit: Follow directions as above using one 9 lb. bag of Part C per 1/4 marking on Part A and Part B liquid containers.
3. PLACEMENT
Bonding Agent: Apply with stiff bristle brush, roller or hopper gun at 80 sq. ft./gal. Make sure substrate is thoroughly wetted with bonding agent. Place new concrete or patching material while bonding agent is still wet.
Corrosion Inhibitor: Apply with stiff bristle brush or spray, fully coating all areas of the exposed reinforcing steel at 80 sq. ft./gal. Allow to dry and recoat at same coverage rate. Once dry, new concrete or patching material can be placed.

CAUTION
Component "A" Irritant: Prolonged contact with skin may cause irritation. Avoid eye contact.
Component "B" Corrosive: Contact with skin may cause severe burns. Avoid skin contact.
Product is a strong sensitizer. Use of safety goggles and chemical-resistant gloves is recommended. Avoid breathing vapors. Use adequate ventilation. Use of a NIOSH/MSHA organic vapor respirator recommended if ventilation is inadequate.
Component "C" Irritant: Contains Portland cement. Do not allow contact with eyes or skin. Contains concrete aggregates, sand/gravel. Avoid breathing dust. Respirable silica may cause serious lung problems. There is limited evidence silica is a carcinogen. The use of gloves, goggles, and where appropriate, dusk masks and other protective clothing is recommended.
FIRST AID
Remove contaminated clothing. For eye contact, flush immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes; contact physician immediately. For respiratory problems, remove person to fresh air. For skin contact, remove epoxy immediately with a dry cloth or paper towel. Wash area of contact thoroughly with soap and water.
Solvents should not be used because they carry the irritant into the skin. Wash clothing before re-use. Cured epoxy resins are innocuous.
CLEAN UP
Ventilate area. Confine spill. Collect with absorbent material, flush area with water. Dispose of in accordance with current applicable local, state and federal regulations. Uncured material can be removed with Citrus Cleaner or other approved solvent. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.
