EXECUTION

EXAMINATION

Do not begin installation until substrates have been properly prepared.

Surface must be structurally sound, dry and free of oil, grease, curing agents, dirt, dust or any other foreign material that may prevent proper adhesion.

Test the concrete slab for efflorescence, high levels of alkalinity, and/or high levels of moisture present (greater than 4.5 lbs) in the slab.

** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Failing to adhere to these strict guidelines can result in product delamination, discoloration, blistering, or all together failure of the coating system. Testing is the responsibility of the applicator. Life Paint bears no responsibility for failures due to any of the conditions.

Calcium chloride tests shall be conducted to determine if the concrete is sufficiently dry for an epoxy flooring installation in accordance with the latest edition of ASTM F 1869, Standard Test Method for Measuring Vapor Emission Rate of Concrete Subfloor Using Anhydrous Calcium Chloride.

If moisture is greater than 4.5 lbs. apply LD12 Vapor Seal.

The concrete shall be at least 2500 psi and feel like 30-grit sandpaper. The concrete shall be porous and be able to absorb water.

** NOTE TO SPECIFIER **Delete if existing concrete.

A minimum of 28 days cured is required on all freshly poured concrete slabs

If substrate preparation is the responsibility of another installer, notify Architect of unsatisfactory preparation before proceeding.

PREPARATION

Clean surfaces thoroughly prior to installation.

Prepare surfaces using the methods recommended by the manufacturer for achieving the best result for the substrate under the project conditions.

Prepare the surface by sanding, grinding, water blasting, sand blasting or shot blasting. Clean surface entirely with TSP and rinse completely with water several times. Remove mildew or algae using 50/50 blend of household bleach and water, rinse thoroughly.

Cracks shall be filled with LD7200 Epoxy Paste according to the manufacturer's instructions.

** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Broadcast chip flooring system only. Delete if not required.

Expansion joints shall be honored and filled with 7100 Epoxy Joint Filler or equivalent.

** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** Epoxy quartz flooring system only. Delete if not required.

Expansion joints shall be honored and filled with LD7200 Epoxy Paste or Gel.

INSTALLATION

Install in accordance with manufacturer's instructions and approved submittals.

PROTECTION

Protect installed products until completion of project.

Prohibit light traffic on the finished floor for 48 hours after installation. Avoid heavy traffic and abrasion, and chemical exposure for 5 days.

Touch-up, repair or replace damaged products before Substantial Completion.
