Resin (without hardener)

EPODEX – Resin (without Hardener)

The resin A-component must be mixed with the hardener B-component before use. The Epoxy Systems, consisting of the resin and hardener, are suitable for a wide range of applications such as civil, electrical and mechanical engineering. It is a classic coating, laminating and repairing epoxy resin. It can be used as casting resin in layers up to 10cm thick. Coat your floors, table tops and other objects. Our EPODEX Epoxy Systems are miscible with all our colour pigments.

Instructions for use

1. Always start with an epoxy resin primer to avoid high material loss and blistering (layer thickness: 0,2-0,5mm). To do so, simply use a portion of the same clear epoxy resin (to prime floors and other coloured substrates we recommend using our water-based epoxy resin EPOXY PRIMER system).
2. Mix te resin A-component with the hardener B-component in a ratio of 2:1 (e.g. 2kg resin: 1kg hardener).
3. Stir through the edge and bottom of the mixing cup as the material will settle there. Ideally, pour into a clean mixing cup and mix again until the mixture is streak-free. This ensures that the resin A-component and hardener B-component are completely mixed together.
4. Pour the resin-hardener mixture onto the surface to be coated immediately after mixing, as the product can start to boil in the mixing cup.
5. Paint the epoxy primer with a paint roller or brush on the desired surface. Let the primer cure.
6. Continue with the main coating in the same way. If you select a colour on this product page, you will receive dyes or colour pigments in addition to the resin and hardener.
7. To colour the main coating, mix the supplied colour with the resin A-component or with the resin-hardener mixture. Adjust the colour intensity individually by adding more or less colour pigment.

Info: Epoxy resin is sensitive to any kind of moisture during curing (risk of amine blush formation, i.e. white patches in the top layer). For this reason, we recommend that you avoid any contact between water and the epoxy until it has cured completely (at least 7 days). For thin layers, cold temperatures (ambient, substrate, and resin temperatures below 20°C) and increased humidity, the time until the epoxy resin is fully cured may be extended.
