<h2>COMPOSITION</h2>
<p>Epoxy.com Product #693 Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) Coating is a 100% reactive 
methyl methacrylate resin.</p>
<h2 class="application">APPLICATION</h2>
<h3>SURFACE PREPARATON</h3>
<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="https://www.epoxy.com/surfaceprep.aspx">Epoxy.com Surface Preparation Guide</a>.</p>
<h3 class="application">MIXING/APPLICATION</h3>
<p>Epoxy.com Product #693 Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) Sealer and Coating requires 
the addition of&nbsp; Epoxy.com Product #695 MMA Hardener to start the hardening 
process. The amount of hardener must be adjusted to the respective surface temperature (see table 
below). At temperatures below 40 &deg; F, Epoxy.com Product #696 Accelerator must be used in addition to the amount of hardener used at 
the 40&deg;F level (about &frac12; oz by
vol./gal. @ 32&deg;F up to 2.0 oz by vol./gal. @ -20&deg;F).</p>

		<p>Epoxy.com Product #693 Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) Coating&nbsp; must be applied 50-100 sq. ft./gal. (16-32 mils) for safe 
through-hardening. To avoid yellowness do not apply more than 80 mils (20 sq ft/gal.). 
		For outdoor applications add 1% Epoxy.com Product #693 UV Inhibitor at a 
		rate of 1% by volume. Pigmented topcoats are achieved by adding pigment packs (1 quart per 5 gallons 
resin) to Epoxy.com Product #693 Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) Coating.
Apply material with a notched trowel or squeegee and back roll with a short nap 
mohair roller.</p>
		<p>Broadcast uncured Epoxy.com Product #693 with Epoxy.com Product #77 
		Broadcast aggregate at a rate of about 1 lb per square foot.</p>
<h2>CLEAN UP</h2>
<p>Clean skin with soap and water; use MEK, xylene, or clean proprietary epoxy thinners for equipment. 
Consult Material Safety Data Sheet for safety and health precautions.</p>

is 6 months in the original unopened containers.</p>
<h2>HELPFUL HINTS</h2>
<p>Adequate cross ventilation should be provided. Good ventilation during the processing ensures a good cross
linking and hardening. Read, understand and follow Material Safety Data Sheets and Application Instructions
prior to use.</p>
<p>Use only as directed. If substrate and/or material temperature is above 90&deg;F, DO NOT apply material.	</p>
