GULF COAST PAINT MFG., INC. <br />CM-15/page 3 <br />2. Galvanized Steel/Aluminum Solvent clean per SSPC-SPI or steam clean. Sweep blast to achieve <br />minimum 1 mil profile. Apply one (1) coat of CM -15 as a primer at 3-4mils DFT. <br />3, Previously Painted Surfaces: Solvent clean per SSPC-SP1 and/or power wash. Remove loose existing <br />paint by wire brush or other hand tools. Feather edges. Make lest application to check for compatibility. <br />4. Concrete <br />In all cases of surface preparation, the pH should be checked. A pH reading of 7.0 to 8.5 is acceptable. <br />Also, a Water Dissipation Test should be made on random areas of the floor to determine if the proper <br />degree of porosity has been achieved. Before the installation of any Gulf Coat Paint Products, the sub- <br />strate should be examined for moisture. Test for moisture vapor transmission using ASTM F-1859 Stand <br />and Test Method for Measuring Moisture Vapor Emission Rate of Concrete Subfloor using Anhydrous Cal- <br />cium Chloride. The maximum allowable rate is 3 Itis. per 1,000 square feet per 24 hours. Test for relative <br />humidity in concrete floor slabs using Probes according to ASTM F-2170. This test measures the pres- <br />ence relative humidity of the slab below the surface. The maximum relative humidity should be below <br />60%. <br />New concrete must be cured at least a minimum of 28 days before applying a coating. On -grade slabs <br />must have moisture vapor barrier in place. All laitance, sealers, efflorescence, chemical contaminants, <br />grease, oil and other foreign material must be removed. The prepared surface must be clean, dry and <br />structurally sound. Gulf Coast Paint recommends mechanical preparation by means of shot blasting or <br />diamond grinding to achieve a CSP -2 or CSP -3 profile, in accordance with the International Concrete Re- <br />pair Institute (ICRI). The profile should reflect something similar to a 60-100 grit sandpaper. If the sub- <br />strate is not properly prepared and the appropriate profile is not achieved, failure of the product to adhere <br />to the substrate may occur. <br />Old concrete surfaces must be structurally sound. Any unsound areas must be repaired prior to proceed- <br />ing with the resinous installation. For proper patching and repairing, use CF -615 and/or PC -1000 with <br />graded aggregate. Remove existing paint and loose concrete by rough sanding, sandblasting, high pres- <br />sure water cleaning, shot blasting or grinding. In some cases where plant conditions allow, a stripper may <br />be used to remove excessive build-up of paints or sealers. <br />Coating System <br />The properly sound, cleaned concrete must be primed first with either PC -149, PC -155, or PC -1703 Epoxy <br />Concrete Primer per label instruction. Two coats of CM -15 Epoxy at approximately 5-7 mils dry per coat is <br />recommended for light traffic areas. For heavy forklift and high abrasion areas, CT -352 Polyester Polyure- <br />thane Coating at 2-3 mils dry film thickness is recommended as the top coat over one coat of CM -15 Epoxy. <br />V.O.C. <br />Unthinned Thinned 5% Thinned 10% Thinned 20% <br />1.34 lbs/g] 1.6 Ibs/gl 1.83 Ibs/gl 2.23 Iba/gl <br />161 GMS/Liter 192 GMS/Liter 219 GMS/Liter 267 GMS/liter <br />MIXING INSTRUCTIONS <br />Stir each component to a uniform consistency, using a slow speed variable speed explosion proof drill with a <br />Jiffy Mixer. Do not mix by hand. Make sure any pigment settled to the bottom is incorporated. Do not vary <br />proportions. Chemical Mastic CM -15 is prepared by mixing 4 parts base (Part A) to 1 part Hardener (Part B) <br />with a power mixer. CM -15 may be thinned up to 10% by volume for airless spray and up to 20% by volume <br />for conventional spray. When rolling, thin 10-20% by volume. <br />Phone: 251-964-7911 30075 County Rd. 49, Loxley, AL 36551 Fax: 251-964-7918 <br />www.aulfcoastpaint.com a -mall: IntoCa)aulfcoastoaintcom <br />
