Surface preparation:
Metal:
All surfaces should be clean and free from contamination. The surface should be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504, Abrasive blast the surface to minimum NACE-2/SSPC SP-10/Sa 2.5, as per ISO 8501-1, for a visual assessment of surface cleanliness with an anchor profile of 3 to 4 mils (75 -100 microns). Soluble salts must be removed to an acceptable levels. Refer to NCSI surface preparation manual for detailed procedures for different types of substrates.
Concrete
The surface of a concrete subfloor should be dry, smooth, structurally sound and free of depression, scale, or foreign deposits of any kind. Remove all curing compounds. Abrasive blast, sweep blast or water blast to remove all latent material and expose voids. Use a good quality epoxy filler or mortar for void and spall filling, skim coat or repairs. Prime, fill imperfections in the substrate surface to limit out-gassing. All concrete substrates, on or below grade level should be tested for moisture content. On-grade or below-grade concrete floors or slabs should have a moisture barrier installed to protect from ground moisture. The surface preparation of concrete should meet and conform to Joint NACE 6/SSPC-SP 13 standards and achieve a concrete surface profile of CSP 3 to CSP 6 as per ICRI Guideline No.03732 for optimum performance.
Application:
Must be applied utilizing a 1:1 proportioning dispensing system or an airless spray system with a static mixer. Allow primer to be tack free 5-10) minutes before over coating. The product is suitable for application in extreme cold weather 10 °F (-12 °C).
Equipment clean up:
Cured product may be disposed of without restriction. Uncured Isocyanate and resin portions should be mixed together and disposed of in accordance with local regulations. Containers should be disposed of according to local environmental laws and ordinances.
Nukote Polyprime II is difficult to clean up after it has cured. Equipment should be cleaned with environmentally safe solvent, as permitted under local regulations, immediately after use.
Limitations:
Do not open until ready to use, and store in a sealed container after opening. Containers that have been opened must be used as soon as possible. Surfaces must be dry, clean and free of foreign matter. Not UV stable. Will discolour in exterior applications.
Warning:
This product contains Isocyanate and solvent.
