Applications
Used to create final surface coatings with high resistance to abrasion, water penetration and chemicals, bearing light to medium loads, such as factory floors, garages, warehouses, etc.
BestCoat EP705 can be applied directly onto concrete, cement render, fiber-cement cladding panels, epoxy mortar and metal surfaces, etc.

Application instruction
Surface preparation:
The substrate must reach the minimum strength (compressive strength ≥ 20 MPa, tensile strength ≥ 1.5 MPa). The surface must be treated to block water penetration; impurities and dust must be removed as required before application.
Coating system:
Defective or honeycombed surfaces must be treated with dedicated BestBond-line epoxy mortars before applying BestCoat EP705.
For flat, dense surfaces with medium roughness, the standard coating system consists of:
One primer coat of BestPrimer EP702 at: 0.15 ÷ 0.20 kg/m².
Two finish coats of BestCoat EP705 at: 0.10 ÷ 0.15 kg/m².
However, depending on the specific requirements of each item, project and intended use, the number of coats may be increased as required.
Mixing:
Add component A into component B at the specified ratio. Use an electric mixer or a dedicated mixing machine (300 to 500 rpm) to mix the material for about 3 minutes or longer until the mixture is homogeneous. Let the material stand for about 03 minutes and re-mix before application.
Application:
Can be applied with a brush, short-nap roller or pressure spray gun.
Notes:
When subdividing into smaller portions, stir component B well before weighing.
Do not use paint that has exceeded its workable time and has started to cure.
Cleaning:
Use water and soap to clean tools immediately after use and before the paint cures.
Safety guidance:
Both components are non-hazardous and non-flammable. However, to ensure safe conditions, gloves, a mask and safety goggles must be worn during application.
If splashed into the eyes, nose or mouth, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water several times before going to the nearest medical facility for timely and proper treatment.
