EPODEX – ECO System
The ECO system is suitable for a wide range of applications such as civil, electrical and mechanical engineering. It is a classic coating, laminating and repairing epoxy resin. It can be used as casting resin in layers up to 1cm thick. Coat your floors, table tops and other objects. Our EPODEX ECO system is miscible with all our colour pigments.
Instructions for use
- Always start with an epoxy resin primer to avoid high material loss and blistering (layer thickness: 0,2-0,5mm). To do so, simply use a portion of the same clear epoxy resin (to prime floors and other coloured substrates we recommend using our water-based epoxy resin EPOXY PRIMER system).
- Mix the ECO resin A-component with the ECO hardener B-component in a ratio of 2:1 (e.g. 2kg resin: 1kg hardener).
- Stir through the edge and bottom of the mixing cup as the material will settle there. Ideally, pour into a clean mixing cup and mix again until the mixture is streak-free. This ensures that the resin A-component and hardener B-component are completely mixed together.
- Pour the resin-hardener mixture onto the surface to be coated immediately after mixing, as the product can start to boil in the mixing cup.
- Paint the epoxy primer with a paint roller or brush on the desired surface. We recommend rollers made of polyamide.
- Let the primer cure for about 20h.
- Continue with the main coating in the same way. We recommend a maximum casting height of 1cm per layer. Casting above 1cm can lead to overheating, yellowing, cracking and deformation of the material. To achieve a total thickness of more than 1cm, we recommend casting the next 1cm layer after about 6 hours.
- If you select a colour on this product page, you will receive dyes or colour pigments in addition to the resin and hardener.
- To colour the main coating, mix the supplied colour with the resin A-component or with the resin-hardener mixture. Adjust the colour intensity individually by adding more or less colour pigments.
- The epoxy resin can be touched and is accessible by foot after 20 hours and is chemically fully cured after about 7 days.
