Vetoprime EP490 - AE

Vetoprime EP490 must be applied to a sound, clean and dry surface to achieve maximum bond strength between substrate and coating/repair products.

Concrete substrates should be at least 28 days old, and at a 75% or below relative to humidity of the concrete. Laitance deposits on new concrete are best removed by light grit blasting, mechanical scrabbling, or grinding. Where heavy contamination by oil and grease has occurred or existing coatings are present, remove all contaminants entirely.

Mix Vetoprime EP490 as supplied. Add the entire content of the hardener container to the base container and mix thoroughly for about 2 minutes. Once mixed, apply Vetoprime EP490 immediately in a thin continuous film using a stiff brush or a roller.

Avoid over-application and puddles. Allow Vetoprime EP490 to become tack-free before applying the epoxy coating (unless otherwise specified), but keep well within the open time specified for the given temperature. As a general rule, the hotter the substrate, the quicker the primer will become dry.

Clean all tools and equipment with Vetonit Solvent XX400 immediately after use.
