Recommendation for Use:

Surface Preparation

Masonry and Cement Concrete Surface

Moisture Content must be below 6% checked by Sovereign Moisture Meter. Unstable matter such as powder, old paint film, dirt and loose plaster should be removed by high pressure water jet washing or mechanical means such as power brush or scraper whichever is suitable. High pressure water jet may be used for external wall. Contaminants, dust and foreign matter should be removed by cleaning with damped cloth. Oil or grease should be removed by solvent cleaning or mild detergent. Allow surface to dry again.

New cement floor

Moisture Content must be below 6% checked by Sovereign Moisture Meter. Foreign and unstable matter such as powder, dirt, dust, contaminants and loose plaster should be removed by low pressure water jet washing. Oil or grease should be removed by solvent cleaning or mild detergent. Allow surface to dry again.

Recommended No. of Coats:1 coat

Recommended Film Thickness per coat:

20 microns for dry film

38 microns for wet film

Application Data:

Application Methods:  Brush, roller, compressed air spray and airless spray

Thinning:            

Roller & Brush : 40% maximum 

Air Spray: 40% maximum             

Airless Spray: 10% maximum     

Mixing Ratio: 4 parts by volume of NIPPON EP4 CLEAR SEALER (BASE) to 1 part by volume of NIPPON EP4 HARDENER.

Stir the content of the BASE component, continue stirring and gradually add the total content of the HARDENER component, continue stirring until a homogeneous mix is obtained.

Pot Life at 25oC to 30oC: 4 - 6 hours after mixing, depending on prevailing temperature

Thinner: NIPPON SA 65 THINNER

Cleaning Solvent: NIPPON SA 65 THINNER

Note: All equipment should be cleaned IMMEDIATELY with Thinner after use. For thinning, substitute thinners other than those approved or supplied by Nippon Paint may adversely affect the product performance and void product warranty whether expressed or implied

Drying Time at 25oC to 30oC:

Dry to touch: 1 - 2 hours

Dry to handle: 16 hours

Dry to overcoat : Minimum 16 hours

Curing time at 25°C to 30°C:  6 - 7 days

Note: Drying time will become remarkable under low temperature. Exposure of the paint film to water, chemical and abrasion should be avoided as far as possible before full cure of the coating. Allow the surface to dry thoroughly prior to overcoating

Standard Packing:
