How to Use (Epoxy Resin + Hardener)
Using our epoxy products is simple and ensures a long-lasting, professional finish if applied correctly. Please follow these steps carefully:
Surface Preparation
Proper surface preparation is essential for adhesion and durability.
-
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, debris, and contaminants.
-
Remove any grease, oil, wax, or loose particles using a suitable cleaner or degreaser.
-
For best results, lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper to create a mechanical bond.
-
Wipe the area with a lint-free cloth or tack cloth to remove all sanding residue.
Mixing the Epoxy
Our epoxy system includes two components: Resin (Part A) and Hardener (Part B).
-
Mix both components in the exact ratio specified on the product label (usually by volume or weight).
-
Pour Part B into Part A and stir slowly and thoroughly for 3–5 minutes using a clean mixing stick or paddle.
-
Mix until the solution is completely uniform in color and consistency. Avoid introducing air bubbles during mixing.
-
Only mix the amount you can use within the working (pot) time of the product.
Application
Apply the mixed epoxy evenly and efficiently:
-
Use a roller, brush, trowel, or spreader, depending on the application surface and type.
-
For floor coatings: Start from one corner of the room and work in small sections, maintaining a wet edge to prevent lap marks.
-
For tile fixing, repairs, or bonding: Apply a thin, even layer to both surfaces being bonded, if possible.
-
Avoid over-application, which can lead to sagging or uneven finish.
Curing Time
Curing is a critical stage that determines the final strength and finish:
-
Allow the epoxy to cure undisturbed for 24–48 hours, depending on the specific product and environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity.
-
Ensure the surface remains dry, dust-free, and protected from heavy loads or traffic during the curing period.
-
Full mechanical and chemical resistance may take up to 7 days.
Safety Precautions
Safety should always be a top priority during handling and application:
-
Always wear protective gloves, safety goggles, and a mask or respirator to avoid contact with skin and inhalation of fumes.
-
Work in a well-ventilated area. If indoors, use fans or open windows to improve airflow.
-
Keep the products away from heat sources, sparks, or open flames.
-
Store all components out of reach of children and pets.
-
In case of skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
Post-Application Care and Maintenance
Once fully cured, epoxy surfaces require minimal maintenance, but some care will extend their life:
-
Clean the surface regularly with a soft cloth or mop and non-abrasive, pH-neutral cleaner.
-
Avoid dragging heavy or sharp objects across the surface to prevent scratches.
-
For high-traffic areas, consider using protective mats or rugs to reduce wear.
-
Do not expose the surface to harsh chemicals unless it's rated for chemical resistance.
