EPOXON TRANSPARENT

Two-component satin transparent varnish intended for protecting the following substrates: concrete, decorative effects, travertine, and lime plasters on walls and floors applied in a system using Marmo plaster. 2-3 layers of the varnish are applied directly to an absorbent substrate. Varnished decorations are protected against permanent contamination, resistant to abrasion due to porcelain content, and covered with a satin coating.

Applications

• directly to absorbent substrates (without Lumicca incolore), at least 2-3 layers,
• recommended for all kind of lime plaster, i.e. all products from the following families: Calce Marmorino, Art Concretes, Micro, Marmo, Travertino,
• for indoor surfaces exposed to contamination such as kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, boiler rooms, etc., to provide better protection of the surface,
• private houses and flats and public utility facilities,
• frequently applied to floors in a system with Beton Marmo concrete,
• the coating achieves its full resistance and hardness 7 days after application in optimal conditions, i.e. +18°C to + 25°C and approx. 65% humidity.

EPOXON TRANSPARENT consists of varnish based on epoxy resins, and a hardener (2 parts). After mixing, the components can be used for up to 1 hour. Even though the varnish smells and looks normal after this time, do not use it as it loses its properties.

Mixing/combining proportions: 100 units of Epoxon Transparent per 25 units of the hardener

General application principles

All work on a given substrate should be performed and finished with products from the same production batch, with the same serial number, as there may be slight differences in the base that may affect the final colour and effect. The instructions to perform the work in a professional manner are based on basic occupational health and safety rules, and guidelines described in the following sheets: technical, application system, adapting work to conditions (i.e. temperature, humidity, drafts, etc.), and proper surface preparation.

Before we begin painting, it is very important to verify the technical condition of the substrate and follow the guidelines related to its proper preparation. The substrate should be: stable, dry, cleaned, all cavities should be filled and any fungi should be removed if necessary. Dust must be removed from the surface, as well as any built up dirt and grease. If the surface does not meet the requirements, old layers of paint, which should adhere to the substrate well and endure the adhesiveness of the new finish, must be removed mechanically. When working on mineral textures that have never been painted, ensure they are clean and free of defects (new plasters should be painted after 3-4 weeks of stabilisation or after the time indicated by the producer of the plaster, putty, filler, etc.)

In order to achieve a level and homogeneous surface on a given substrate, the work should be performed by a single person using the same tools, with a short application time (without pauses) for each coat so the whole wall may be covered with wet paint.

The final effect depends on the user's skills, tools, and the amount of product applied. Therefore, the efficiency, samples, and other parameters presented here are illustrative and approximate only, calculated based on several years of experience and research, applicable to optimal climatic conditions (approx. +23°C and 65% humidity). The parameters may change in other conditions. However, due to a great variety of substrates and application conditions, it is necessary to verify the product and its effectiveness by testing it individually under given conditions.

If the surface requires washing, the whole wall must be washed with similar motions and using the same tools and liquids. Wash the tools with water immediately after use. ECORSON is not responsible for non-intended use of the product and uses inconsistent with the principles, also when used beyond our reasonable control.
