<h1>Epoxy Water Emulsion Primer and Sealer</h1>
<h2>Epoxy.com Proudct #231</h2>
 <hr/>

	<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
	<p><strong>Epoxy.com Product #231 Water Emulsion Primer and Sealer</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp; 
	is a water based epoxy primer/sealer designed to have maximum resin 
	penetration into concrete surfaces to provide high bond strength and 
	adhesion. Epoxy.com Product #231 Water Emulsion Primer and Sealer&nbsp;&nbsp; 
	has very low odor and, therefore, can be used in occupied areas. Epoxy.com 
	Product #231 Water Emulsion Primer and Sealer&nbsp;&nbsp; has the ability to 
	be applied to recently poured (green) concrete and achieve excellent 
	adhesion. Epoxy.com Product #231 Water Emulsion Primer and Sealer&nbsp;&nbsp; 
	is ideal for both new and old concrete surfaces.<span>&nbsp; </span>It is

	<h2>ADVANTAGES</h2>
	<ul>
	<li>Very little odor during 
	application.</li>
	<li>Easy clean-up.</li>
	<li>Fast dry and recoat time.</li>
	<li>Can be used on damp/green concrete.</li>
	<li>Greatly reduces probability of concrete outgassing.</li>
	</ul>
	<h2>CONSIDERATIONS</h2>
	<ul>
	<li>Substrate must be above 50&deg;F and relative humidity below 85% for proper curing.</li>
	<li>Substrate must be free of dirt, waxes, curing agents and other foreign materials.</li>
	</ul>
	<h2>COMPOSITION</h2>
	<p>Water-borne epoxy resin.</p>
	<h2>CLEAN-UP</h2>
	<p>Clean tools with xylene, lacquer thinner, or hot soapy water.</p>

	<h2>APPLICATION</h2>
	<h2>SURFACE PREPARATION</h2>
	<p>Surface Preparation is the most critical portion of any successful 
	resinous flooring system application. All substrates must 
	be properly prepared as outlined in <a href="surfaceprep.aspx">Epoxy.com 
	Surface Preparation Guide</a>.</p>
	<h2>MIXING &amp; APPLICATION</h2>
	<p>Mix each component of Epoxy.com Product #231 Water Emulsion Primer and Sealer  prior to combining in the proper 
	mixing ratio, (2 parts Part A-Resin to 1 part Part B-Hardener by volume).&nbsp;
	Only mix what can be used in four hours. Allow to stand 30 minutes and mix again.</p>
	<p>Apply primer in a thin film with a short nap roller (1/4 inch nap). Do not build film of the primer,
	 but roll out so that it soaks into the concrete. Two coats of primer may be necessary to 
	insure uniform wetting and coverage. Second coat can be 
	applied over wet primer after turning from cloudy to clear.</p>
	<h2>RECOAT</h2>
	<p>Epoxy.com Product #231 Water Emulsion Primer and Sealer  can be top coated very rapidly.&nbsp;When 
	primer turns clear (from milky), it is possible to apply a water based 
	topcoat. Follow the following recoat windows:</p>
	<p>Water based topcoat - 1-24 hours</p>
	<p>100% solid epoxy topcoat - 6-24 hours</p>
	<p>Solvent based topcoat - 24-36 hours</p>
