SURFACE PREPARATION
ABAFLOOR-22 must be applied over approved primers of ABAPRIME-11 or ABAPRIME-12.
The primer surface should be dry and free from all contamination. ABAFLOOR-22 should be applied within the overcoating intervals specified.
In order to achieve a smooth and suitable surface, All Cracks in the concrete shall be filled by ABADUR-P1 before applying the ABAFLOOR-22.
Concrete Surfaces: Concrete should be cured for a minimum of 28 days prior to coating. The moisture content of the concrete should be below 4% .
All surfaces should be clean and dry.
Surface preparation shall not take place in following conditions:
- At temperature below 5 ºC.
- When the relative humidity is greater than 80%.
- When the surface temperature is less than 3 ºC above dew the point.
- Outside day light hours on exterior locations.
Application Method
Material is supplied in two containers as a unit. Always mix a complete unit in the proportionsupplied.
Once the unit has been mixed it must be used within the working Pot life specified.
- Agitate part A with a power agitator.
- Combine the entire contents of part B with Part A and mix thoroughly with power agitator.
Mix thoroughly for at least three minutes, scraping the container bottom and side to assure complete
mixing. There is no induction or waiting time required after mixing before application.
The exothermic nature of epoxy setting reactions may cause rapid temperature rise when the
mixture is left massed in a bucket, resulting in high temperatures and loss of utility of the product.
Like all high performance coating, this product must be applied as recommended to obtain the
maximum protection for which this coating is formulated.
Pour ABAFLOOR-22 on the floor and spread using a flat trowel. After 10 minutes, roll the
surface with a pin roller to remove air bubbles. Apply a minimum of 1.5-2.5 mm ABAFLOOR-22
normally provides a smooth surface with excellent mechanical characteristics
In hot climate, material temperature should be 20 to 25 ºC prior to mixing; otherwise pot life
becomes very short.
- Do not thin for any reason.
- Do not apply the paint when wind speed is in excess of 7 m/s.
- Do not apply the paint when surface temperature is below 10ºC.
