INSTALLATION

     All surfaces which are to be coated with Epoxy.com Product #889 must be free of contamination such as curing compounds, concrete hardeners, bond breakers, paint, etc. We recommend water-curing concrete instead of using concrete curing compounds. All surfaces must be clean, sound and dry. Sandblasting is recommended when possible, otherwise acid etching and wirebrushing may be sufficient.

     Coverage:  250 sq.ft. per gallon on rough surfaces.  Up to 350 sq.ft. per gallon on smooth surfaces.

For best results, the surface that has been coated with Epoxy.com PRODUCT #889 should be allowed to cure for a minimum of 2 hours before the application of the membrane or joint sealant. If for some reason the primer is allowed to cure in excess of 8 hours, the surface should be sanded and reprimed with Epoxy.com PRODUCT #889.

     Epoxy.com PRODUCT #889 should not be applied over wet surfaces as full adhesion and penetration will not be obtained. Epoxy.com PRODUCT #889 may be applied by brush, roller or spray.
