Epoxy resin for the pre-treatment of absorbent surfaces prior to the application of epoxy or polyurethane resins, or waterproofing products from the Polyurea range. It can be used as a primer or for the creation of quartz-filled epoxy screeds, as it complies with the requirements of standard EN 13813.

Substrate preparation
Substrate preparation is essential; therefore, the surface to be treated must be free from any contaminants, dry, sound and have a tear strength of at least 1.5 MPa. In all cases, surface preparation must be carried out by sandblasting, milling, shot-blasting, grinding or sanding, depending on the type of surface. Any free or standing water originating from the substrate, previous washing operations or weather conditions must be removed or dried using appropriate methods.
Product preparation
A two-component product to be mixed thoroughly immediately before use with a low-speed propeller mixer. Mix Component B with Component A for a few minutes until a homogeneous, lump-free mass of uniform colour is obtained. Depending on the intended use, apply as is or load ‘Epox Grip’ with ‘Quarz Sand 0.4’ quartz sand at a ratio of 50 per cent (1:0.5) up to a maximum recommended ratio of 1:6. The product must be applied at a temperature between +5°C and +35°C.
Application
Epox Grip should be applied with a roller or trowel, depending on the type of finish required. When laying epoxy screeds, use Epox Grip as a primer at a rate of 300 to 500 g/m² of product. Apply the epoxy mortar – consisting of one part binder, Epox Grip and up to 6 parts of quartz with a controlled grain size of 0.1–0.4 – to the fresh surface. Allow the necessary curing time depending on the temperature (approximately 2–3 hours), then proceed with manual or mechanical smoothing. As soon as possible, level the surface by thickening Epox Grip with quartz, powder or another thickening agent.
Cleaning tools
Tools must be cleaned with a thinner after use.
When kept in its original sealed packaging, stored in a dry, sheltered place at a temperature between +5 °C and +35 °C, the product has a shelf life of 12 months.
