PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

MIXING

Mix only as much Splash Zone Epoxy and Underwater Epoxy Paste Product #2707 as you can use within 20 min. or less at 70 degrees F.  If the temperature is higher your working time will be much shorter. It is always better to start with smaller batches and to gradually increase the size, to be sure that you have enough working time. Material temperature should be a minimum of 60°F for ease of mixing. Mix "A" & "B" Components together, by hand, until a uniform gray color is achieved.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Remove all deteriorated material, barnacles or other marine growth by mechanical abrasion, water or sand blasting. Typically the better the surface preparation, the better the bond. To avoid contamination, apply Splash Zone Epoxy and Underwater Epoxy Paste Product #2707 to prepared surface as quickly as possible. It is always best to do a mockup to verify that your surface preparation is adequate. This product is intended for hairline cracks and other fractures up to an 1/8 inch in width. Remove all unsound concrete from within the crack to be repaired and thoroughly remove all debris from within the crack opening.

APPLICATION

For best results, apply Splash Zone Epoxy and Underwater Epoxy Paste Product #2707 by hand using tight-fitting rubber or plastic gloves. (Wet gloves with slightly soapy water before working with material.) Press material onto surface and knead into place in maximum lift thickness of approximately 2". Smooth gently by rubbing with gloves using water as a lubricant. For smaller areas you can use a concrete grout bag.
