<<Back to Data Sheets

Product Profile:
General Description: This material is a high-solids modified polyamine cure epoxy coating that provides a low temperature cure with excellent chemical and solvent resistance. Modified polyamine cured epoxies combine outstanding resistance to solvents, tap and salt water, acids and bases, shock and abrasion.
Common Usage: Excellent adhesion and flexibility are obtained over ferrous and non- ferrous metals, floors, fiberglass, and or dry concrete.
Color: Light Gray
Finish: Gloss
Activator Required: Yes, #CC-1496
 
Coating Systems:
Primer Coats: For maximum protection, use Anchor #CC-1514 Hi-Solids Epoxy primer. Consult your Anchor representative for specific job recommendations.
 
Surface Preparation: Old Work: Prior to application, ensure that the substrate is free of any contaminants according to SSPC-SP1. All damaged areas should be repaired and existing paint should be in good condition. Test existing paint for lifting and if present, it must be removed or application of barrier primer must be used. New Work: For best performance on steel, the surface should be blasted to a minimum SSPC-SP10, including the removal of all mill scale. Prior to blasting, remove all flux and scab from the welding and grind smooth all rough weld seams and sharp edges. Remove any grease, oil or dirt with solvent or chemical cleaner before blasting. The surface should be coated as soon as possible. Concrete Floors: Old concrete floors must be tested for lifting and old paint removed if not resistant to epoxy. The surface must be cleaned of all dirt, oils, or other contaminants with detergent; thoroughly rinsed and dried. All floors that are worn smooth must be etched with a 3% solution of Muriatic Acid, thoroughly rinsed and dried. New concrete must be cured at least 28 days @ 70 degrees F. and 50% R.H. or equivalent time. Apply to properly prepared concrete that has been acid etched (ASTM D4260) or sweep blasted and thoroughly rinsed.
 
Technical Data:
Volume Solids: 63.49% mixed
Recommended Thickness: 2 mils dry per coat minimum
Drying Time: 
Temperature To Touch To Recoat
75 F / 55% R.H. 4 Hours Within 48 Hours
Cooler temperatures and higher humidity will require a longer cure time. However, very rapid cures can be obtained by force drying or baking the epoxy.

Application:
Coverage Rates Per Coat: 
Dry Mils Wet Mils Sq.Ft./Gal.
Suggested: 3 4.7 399
Minimum: 2 3.2 509
Maximum: 4 6.3 255
Mixing: One part Anchor #CC-1496 Catalyst to four parts Epoxy.
Thinning: Thin with Anchor #3905 only up to 12 ounces per mixed gallon to obtain 3.5 lbs/gal. V.O.C. Do not thin unless permitted by Federal, State and Local Regulations.

Minimum 50 F Maximum 110 F
The cure time is completely dependent on the substrate temperature. The coating will not cure where the substrate is below 50 F; at 70 F the cure time is approximately 7 days. Avoid applications where the relative humidity is above 85%.
Application Equipment:
Airless Spray
Pressure: 1800-3000 psi
Tip: .015" - .019"
Conventional Spray
Air Pressure: 75-100 psi
Fluid Pressure: 10-20 psi
Brush: Use a high quality natural china bristle brush.
Roller: Use 3/8" or 1/2" synthetic nap covers
Cleanup: Clean equipment thoroughly before and immediately after using Anchor #3905.
Application Considerations: This product can be applied by brush, roller or spray equipment. Coverage will vary depending on porosity of the surface and application technique. Allow for application losses due to overspray conditions and surface texture.
