P-03 Epoxy Concrete Primer

P-03 is a two component, low VOC, waterborne epoxy primer/sealer. It has excellent adhesion to dry or damp concrete (up to 95% RH), provides fast dry and early hardness properties and can be applied clear or tinted using 1342 color packs. P-03 is easy to use and provides a high gloss that resists abrasion and a broad range of common chemicals.

Uses and Benefits

P-03 is most often used as a concrete floor primer/sealer but can also be used as a vertical primer on concrete and wallboard. It has a low mix viscosity, is blush resistant and has virtually no odor. It is easy to apply and provides an excellent stand-alone coating or a base layer for subsequent coatings of all types.

Limitations

P-03 is designed to be applied between 4-8 mils. Ideal application temperatures to be between 60 – 90°F. Cooler temperatures will increase cure times. Warmer temperatures will decrease working and cure times. Higher relative humidity will increase cure time on waterborne products.

Preparation

The preparation method for each project is determined by a full understanding of the substrate to be coated, the chemistry of the coating system being used, the coating system thickness, and numerous other factors. The coating installer should fully read and understand ICRI Guideline NO. 310.2R-2013 and OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1153 before starting preparatory work. The aim, of preparing a substrate for coating applications, is to roughen the surface, remove weak layers, contaminants, dirt, debris and present a solid, clean, dry substrate for the primer.
