ResiGard SL2
1-2 mm THICK SELF SMOOTHENING CHEMICAL RESISTANT HIGH PERFORMANCE EPOXY FLOORING SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION ResiGard SL2 is a four component (Base, Hardener, Filler & Color pack), solvent-free, epoxy resin self smoothening chemical resistant flooring system. It has excellent adhesion qualities, chemical resistant and glossy finish and easily cleaned. ASTM D 4541:1985, BS 6319 : Part 7, BS 6319 Part 2, BS 6319 : part 3 ResiGard SL2 is a heavy duty, commercial treatment for concrete floors, attractive and easily cleaned. Highly resistant to chemical attack and the action of forklift, vehicularm and commercial type traffic. Suitable for use in wet areas where strict levels of hygiene and cleanliness are required or where chemicals are manufactured, spilled or are an integral part of the process. Use in food and chemical industry, hospitals, schools, kitchens, high traffic applications and many other installations. ResiGard SL2 can be used for wide range of industrial environments where a lasting solution to floor maintenance problems is required. It provides a dense, impervious, coloured and chemically resistant floor surface which is hygienic and easy to clean. Typical applications include showrooms, clean rooms, laboratories, plant rooms and light industrial plants. Phenol free, can also be used in food procesing industry Applied from 1 - 3 mm thickness. High flow characteristics combined with an attractive self smoothing finish. Fast application - minimizes downtime. Chemically resistant - good resistance to a wide range of chemicals. Durable - good impact resistance. Hygienic - provides a dense, impervious, seamless floor surface which is easily cleaned. Attractive - available in a wide range of colours to enhance the working environment. Available with fast cure hardener for low temperature application or where early service of the floor is required.

Inspect concrete surfaces to receive epoxy self smoothening and verify that they are free of dirt, grease, oil, curing compounds, paints, impregnations and all loose material or foreign matter as they likely to affect the bond or performance of the epoxy self smoothening. Confirm newly placed concrete has been cured sufficiently to attain its design strength and limit further shrinkage. New concrete floors must be at least 28 days old prior to application. All surfaces to be repaired must be clean, sound and dry, free of mould release agents, bond breaking coatings, curing compounds or any other form of contamination that may affect the bond strength of the epoxy coating by mechanical means i.e. wire brushing & washing with water jet. Determine area where epoxy flooring to be done by visual inspection and hammer sounding. Highlight all areas where concrete quality is weak. Remove poor quality concrete in the floor until sound concrete is apparent. Ensure the surfaces are left in a smooth condition. Any minor repairs shall be done with epoxy putty ReCon FCE. All edges ideally should be cut at right angles. Feather edges are usually points of weakness. Upon completion of shot blasting or grinding the floor should be vacuumed and cleaned. Once the surface preparation is complete the concrete should be primed with ResiGard Primer SB / ResiGard Primer SF. The primer should be brushed into the surface using a stiff brush, broom or roller & allowed to dry (minimum 12 16 Hours) before the application of ResiGard SL2. In case of extremely porous substrate, two coats of primer is recommended. Allow the first coat to dry before applying the subsequent coat. The primer coat needs to be allowed to dry completely before laying ResiGard SL2 If the surface is having dampness then it is prefered to use ResiGard MB as primer coat which cures with the moisture to form a tough membrane and will not affect the top coat. ResiGard SL2 is supplied in pre-measured packs (Base, Hardener, Filler and Colour Paste).The components should be stirred separately before combining. After stirring individually, transfer the colour paste into the Base, mix it for a minute, then the hardener component should be poured into the base and mixed with a drill and paddle mixer for two minutes to get uniform colour. Finally start adding filler gradually and mix it till homogeneous mixture is obtained. Scrap the edges & at the bottom using spatula, & re-mix for 1 minute.
