Applications

Use a Jiffy Mixer or similar with a variable speed drill, according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Add the hardener slowly and evenly into the mixing vortex in the resin component, while maintaining a constant mixing speed throughout the addition. Avoid entraining air. Continue mixing for a minimum of three minutes. Proper mixing of the viscous hardener into the low viscosity resin component is essential to achieve proper coating properties. Filter before use. Mixed product has a pot life of 2 hours at 25°C.

Surfaces

For new wood and fully sanded old timber surfaces, final sand with 220 grit sandpaper.

For concrete surfaces, best results are obtained from diamond-grinding or sanding.  If diamond grinding or sanding is not possible, acid etching may be used. Apply 1 - 2 coats of FORTIS PRIME 520, followed by 1 or 2 coats of FORTIS COAT 526 Gloss or Satin depending on required finish.
