Product PN: EG-NC

 

Maintain the looks of your ESD area throughout your entire facility! Perfect for use in warehouses, offices, hallways even bathrooms and lunch rooms! 10 year life expectancy outperforms standard latex floor paints by 300%! Top coat with ElectraSheen Sapphire II for Ultimate durability, reduction of nuisance static discharge and a diamond like shine that will LAST!

 

This high performance, water-based epoxy/acrylate provides outstanding durability, abrasion resistance, and high gloss retention without the toxicity and disposal considerations associated with some solvent systems. ElectraGuard NC also displays superb resistance to a wide variety of chemicals and solvents commonly found in industrial and commercial environments. When cured, ElectraGuard NC exhibits characteristics superior to solvent-based urethanes and rivals those of solvent-based epoxy coatings. ElectraGuard NC produces superior results when used on a broad range of concrete and ceramic surfaces.

 

New concrete floors should be allowed to cure a minimum of thirty days. Application to floors colder than 600 F is not recommended. Floor surfaces must be free of any release agents, curing compounds, salts or efflorescence before coating. Sweep and then wash with ElectraClean or a good high quality concrete cleaner. Double rinse with clean clear water. Follow by etching surface with ElectraEtch or similar then thoroughly rinse with clean water.

 

If floor has been previously coated, a small area should be cleaned, roughed up by screen disking with an 80 Grit screen, and then sealer applied to test for adhesion, lifting, etc. Any areas of the existing coating which display poor adhesion should be removed. Wash the stripped areas, acid etch, and rinse thoroughly. Allow the floor to dry.

 

Catalyzed ElectraGuard NC should be used within six hours of mixing, therefore, prepare only the quantity necessary for immediate use. Add premeasured catalyst to epoxy base. Stir gently until the catalyst has been thoroughly mixed in. Allow catalyzed ElectraGuard NC to stand for 5 minutes.

 

Apply catalyzed ElectraGuard NC with a short nap roller in thin, uniform coats. The initial coat will cover approximately 400-500 ft2 per gallon. Allow the initial coat to dry for 5-7 hours, then apply a second coat. Second coat coverage is approximately 500-600 ft2 per gallon.

 

NOTE: Finished floors may be opened to light traffic, under normal curing conditions, after 12 hours. Complete curing with maximum durability and chemical resistance will take 5-7 days.
