Application
REWAHPOX MPS MORTAR/SCREED is an industrial
epoxy floor coating for heavy loads, which is used
as a durable intermediate layer for concrete floors
with high chemical resistance and mechanical
strength characteristics.
It can
also be used as preparation for damaged concrete
floors prior to the application of the REWAH POX
MPS/SL system or the REWAH AQUAPOX VL coatings

Instructions For Use
Preparation
Remove unsound and
hollow-sounding floor parts, ensure the surface is
dust-free and if necessary degrease with REWAH
OMNICLEAN. REWAHPOX MPS MORTAR/SCREED can only be
applied to dry substrates.
Mixing Procedure
Component A and
component B need to be mixed thoroughly. Stir
continuously while adding the fillers until a
homogeneous mass is obtained. Mix only with the
correct mixing unit and blade.
REWAHPOX MPS MORTAR/SCREED
is an epoxy-based system. Please comply
with the current health, removal and safety
regulations. Safety information in compliance with
guideline EEG 91 /155 is available. |
Working Method
Initially apply the
two-component epoxy primer - REWAHPOX MI'S PRIMER
(200 g/m2). (see separate technical data sheet)
Pour the epoxy
mortar in this unhardened layer and subsequently
flatten it with a stainless flooring trowel until
the desired layer thickness is obtained.
To avoid sticking
and dragging of the trowel, broadcast a thin layer
of silica 30/100 A on the mortar surface and work
with trowel until a de-aired surface is achieved.
Allow to cure for 24 hours Clean the tools with
REWAH ARTICLEAN or a similar Xylene based cleaner.
Precautions
A minimum
application temperature of 12°C shall be respected.
When the temperature is below 15°C, a longer curing
time has to be allowed for.
Additional Processing Conditions:

Safety information - Transport - Handling and
storage - Waste
Take the following
precautions when handling products based on epoxide
resins. Once the epoxide resins are hardened they
constitute no physiological danger.
In order to avoid
irritation which can be provoked when the skin or
the eyes are exposed to the products, just like when
vapours released during the application or the
hardening are inhaled, it is necessary to comply
with the following precautions:
- Avoid
immediate skin contact.
- Rubber gloves
offer the best protection.
Skin creams offer an additional protection. They
preserve those parts of the skin which do not
directly come in contact with the products, e.g.
arms and face.
- Wear safety
goggles to protect the eyes from any possible
splashes.
- Work clothes
saturated with resins must be replaced the next
day.
- Carefully wash
your hands with water and soap before smoking or
eating.
- Do not wash
your hands with solvents. Most skin diseases
diagnosed while applying epoxy resins originate
from the excessive use of solvents which
primarily dry out and nick the skin and
subsequently lead to dermatitis.
- Provide good
aeration around the work area while preparing
and applying the products.
