Internal Line Marker
Vendor: Virtus Resins
Line Marker is a two pack, solvent free, very hard wearing, epoxy floor line marker for use in internal applications. Typically used in heavy duty areas where a hard wearing and chemical resistant surface is required.
Appearance
A smooth gloss finish in a range of attractive colours.
Typical Installations
- Processing and manufacturing plants
- Frequent fork lift truck traffic areas
- Factories and warehousing
- Food preparation, food storage areas and breweries.
- Commercial garages, vehicle repair and maintenance depots, aircraft hangers
- Chemical plant storage areas.
- Car Parks
Advantages
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Hygienic, seamless floor finish
- Low odour
- Solvent free
- Will not support bacterial growth
Suitable Surfaces
Concrete, metal, polymer modified cementitious screeds.
Usage
Indoor (some colour change would occur if used outdoors)
Resistant to: A wide range of acids and other chemicals.
Coverage
10m² per 2.5 kg pack (1 coat)
20m² per 5kg (1 coat)
Coats Required
Single coat is usually sufficient, however 2 coats recommended,
Cure Schedule
Time In-between Coats: 16-36 hours between coats
Drying Time: Normally 8 - 24 hours at 20 ºC for foot traffic and 48 hours for vehicular traffic.
Cleaning
Hot water jet washing, detergents and mechanical scrubber dryers.
Thickness
Approx 0.5 mm (from 2 coats). Can be built up to a maximum of 1 mm thickness from the application of multiple coats.
Surface Preparation
Surfaces to be treated must be clean, sound, free from oil or other contaminants, flaky paints, laitance and dust. Smooth and dense surfaces must be mechanically abraded to provide a key. Please read our Surface Preparation Datasheet.
Application Conditions:
Do not apply outside of the range 10 °C to 25 °C. Localised heating or cooling equipment may be required outside this range to achieve ideal temperature conditions. To reduce the risk of “blooming” caused by condensation, the climate above the uncured floor should be maintained at least 3°C above the dew point for at least 48 hours after application.
The ambient temperature of the works area should be a minimum of 15°C. Localised heating or cooling equipment may be required outside this range during the application and curing period, if not adhered to this can affect the colour and appearance of the system. Materials and substrate temperature must be above 10°C.
Mixing:
Materials should be stored at 15 ºC to 25 ºC for a minimum of 8 hours prior to use. Pre-mix the coloured resin component before use. Add the hardener component to the coloured resin component and mix using a low speed electric mixer (200 - 500 rpm) for at least 3 minutes until homogeneous. Use a spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing vessel several times as unmixed material will result in uncured patches in the final finish.
Application:
Line Marker should be applied onto an existing epoxy resin coating within 36 to 48 hours of the finished coat, if this period is exceeded mechanical abrasion of the coating should be carried out. Apply by brush, short piled roller at a nominal rate of 0.25 kg/m². After a minimum of 12 hours and before a maximum of 36 hours, apply a second coat at the same rate. Should a non-slip finish be required, then broadcast an appropriate aggregate immediately after the first coat. Brush off excess aggregate once the material has cured, prior to applying the second coat.
