Vetotop EC495

The surface should be sound, clean, free from loose material, grease, laitance, dirt-curing compounds, etc. 

Laitance and weak surface layers must be removed using mechanical methods such as grinding or blasting to provide a sound, well-profiled surface. All necessary repairs should be made before applying Vetptop EC495 by using epoxy mortar from the Vetorep ER range. 

New concrete floors should be at least 28 days old, with a moisture content of less than 5% (Test the substrate for moisture conditions if you wish to apply earlier). Grit blast steel substrates to surface quality SA21 /2 (BS 4232:Second Quality). Application should take place within 2 to 4 hours after blasting.

Stir the components of Vetotop EC495 individually before mixing them together. Pour the entire content of the hardener container into the base container, mix the materials thoroughly for at least 3 minutes. We recommend using a heavy-duty, slow speed, flameproof or air-driven drill fitted with a mixing paddle.

Apply the mixed Vetotop EC495 kit to the prepared surface using a brush or a roller made from lambswool. Ensure that the area is completely coated and that the ‘ponding’ of the material does not occur.

The applied coating can receive foot traffic in 24 hours. However, it should be allowed 7 days to achieve full cure in order to receive vehicular traffic (chemical resistance properties are reached then).

Remove Vetotop EC495 from tools and equipment with Vetonit Solvent XX400 immediately after use. Remove hardened material mechanically.
