Instructions for Use metallic LOTOS LILAC & PEARL WHITE
Primer
- We recommend a working temperature of approx. 20°C.
- The surface should be dust-free, clean, and even. Level out holes, unevenness, and slopes in advance with levelling compound.
- Always start with our EPOXY PRIMER (primer).
- Pour the material into a paint tray after mixing.
- Roll the material onto the desired surface with a paint roller.
- Allow the primer to dry (approx. 8-12 hours).
Main Coat
- Use our ECO epoxy resin system (resin + hardener) for the main coating.
- Divide the amount of resin (A) and hardener (B) proportionally between the two metallic colours supplied, i.e., 90% of the resin to the base colour LOTOS LILAC, 10% of the resin to the highlight colour PACIFIC PEARL WHITE.
- First, apply the base colour LOTOS LILAC.
- Mix the resin (A) with the hardener (B) in a ratio of 2:1 by weight (e.g., 1kg A + 0,5kg B).
- Ideally, transfer the material to a clean mixing bucket and stir again. This will ensure that the resin (A) and hardener (B) are completely mixed together.
- Add the supplied LOTOS LILAC metallic pigment to the resin/hardener mixture. We recommend a colour proportion of approx. 1.5%, e.g., 15g pigment to 1kg resin + hardener.
- Pour the material onto the surface immediately after mixing, as the product can boil up in the mixing bucket.
- Apply the material with a squeegee and foam roller flooding the entire surface. We recommend a layer thickness of 1.5mm.
- Now apply the highlight colour PEARL WHITE in the same way and work the colour wet in wet into the base colour as a highlight.
- The main coating can be walked on after approx. 20 hours and is completely chemically cured after approx. 7 days.
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.
