Epoxy Topcoat Solvent Free
CONCOAT EP250 is a high performance, two component, solvent free epoxy resin floor coating. The cured film forms a hard coating with excellent adhesion to concrete, granolithic screeds, and certain metal surfaces. CONCOAT EP250 cures to a glossy, impervious finish which can be easily cleaned. CONCOAT EP250 is available in a wide range of colors and in clear grade.
CONCOAT EP250 complies with British standards BS 476, Part 7: 1971 and BS 5493 -1971.

CONCOAT EP250 is heavy duty traffic floor coating suitable for use in car parking areas, production assembly areas, workshops, dairies, soft drinks production and bottling plants, kitchens, showrooms and wet working areas.
CONCOAT EP250 provides a hard wearing, easily cleaned and attractive floor coatings in areas where high resistance to chemical attack is required.
CONCOAT EP250 is used as a top coat for concrete floors and as a finish coat for epoxy floor screeds to provide a more durable and easily cleaned surface where high impact is desirable.
- High impact resistance
- Hard wearing – durable
- Low maintenance costs
- High abrasion resistance
- Provides hygienic – impervious finish
- Primerless
- High chemical resistance
- Applicable to apply on floor and walls
All surfaces should be clean, dry and free from dust and other contaminants. Wet substrates should be used sponge dried to remove all surface water, then dried. Treat oil or grease contamination should be removed by degreaser followed by water or steam cleaning
New concrete floors should be at least 28 days and have a moisture content of less than 5%. Excessive laitance should be removed by mechanical method. Dust and other debris should be removed by vacuum cleaning.
Old concrete floors damaged areas or surface irregularities should be repaired by using EPOMORTAR FC two component fast curing epoxy mortar (Refer to TDS).
Steel surface should be grit blasted then clean by solvent and kept to dry.
Epoxy Screeds high spots or trowel marks should be rubbed down and remove dust and debris by vacuum cleaning then repair it by using EPOSCREED 10 three component epoxy screed (Refer to TDS.)
The entire contents of the hardener container should be poured into the base container and the two materials mixed thoroughly for at least 3 minutes. Use of heavy duty slow speed power drill with a jiffy mixing blade. Mix the two components in the quantities supplied taking care to ensure hardener container is scraped clean. Do not add solvent thinners at any time.
CONCOAT EP250 is recommended to apply in two coats. CONCOAT EP250 can be applied to prepared surface using airless spray, brush or roller.
Ensure that the area is completely coated.
If anti-slip finishing is required, broad cast Silica Sand (0.25 – 1.00 mm, at 1 kg/m2) while first coat is wet. Applicator can use spiked shoes and confirm that all area completely covered. The second coat can be applied after 12 to 18 hours at 35 0C.
COVERAGE
4.5m2/litr at 250 microns (WFT) in two coats.
CLEANING
Tools and equipment can be cleaned immediately by using THINNERCOAT 10 organic solvent.
