Specifications
Area Coverage
Coverage area is approximately 20m² per 5L per coat. One coat is usually sufficient.
Drying Time
Assuming the area is well ventilated and temperatures are approx 15°C - 20°. Richco Flexible Liquid Vinyl should be touch dry after 5 hours. Please allow 8-12 Hours before introducing any traffic. Full chemical resistance is achieved over 7 days.
Surface Preparation
Concrete: Concrete to be treated must be at least
four weeks old, completely dry and free
of surface laitance (a weak dusty layer on
concrete), contaminants and any previous
poorly bonded coatings. All traces of grease
or oil should be removed with a degreasant and the area
thoroughly washed off and allowed to
dry. Very smooth concrete or concrete
with surface laitance should be etched to ensure adequate
adhesion. The concrete should be
thoroughly washed down and allowed to
dry.
Stone: Stone should be dry and free of all loose
surface material and contaminants.
Painted Surfaces: Previously painted surfaces should be
thoroughly abraded by sanding to improve
adhesion and to remove any weak or loose
material. A trial area is advisable to test
compatibility with previous coatings.
Bare Metal: Remove any rust and flaking material by
disc grinding or wire brushing. Apply the
coating immediately after preparation to
the clean metal surface. Grease or oil can
be removed using a solvent
free degreaser. Allow the metal to dry
before coating. Galvanised metal should
be treated with a galvanised metal primer.
Mixing
The curing agent and resin must be very thoroughly mixed together with a wide bladed tool until an even colour is obtained (approx 2 - 3 minutes).
Application
Best results are obtained in warm conditions (minimum 10°C - 15°C). Apply by using a synthetic sheepskin roller. A paint brush may be used for cutting in. Leave approximately 8 - 12 hours if recoating is required.
Application Tools
Apply Richco Chemical Coating using a synthetic sheepskin roller. Mix product with a wide bladed tool.
Cleaning of Application Tools
Use white spirit before the coating has started to set.
