Key Features and Benefits
- Cost-Effective: Low maintenance and long service life due to excellent UV and chemical resistance.
- Superior Carbonation Protection: Reduces carbonation impact and extends the lifespan of structures.
- UV Stable: Does not fade or deteriorate under prolonged exposure to sunlight.
- Long-Lasting Performance: Resistant to chloride and sulfate ion ingress, as well as various chemicals.
- Environmentally Friendly: Water-based and solvent-free, making it suitable for enclosed spaces.
Surface Preparation
• Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, oils, grease, and any contaminants that may hinder adhesion.
• Concrete Surfaces: Remove laitance, loose materials, and contaminants using grinding, grit blasting, or water jetting. Fill surface irregularities with appropriate repair mortar.
• Metal Surfaces: Blast to a bright finish, achieving Swedish Standard SA 2½ or equivalent.
• Epoxy Coatings: Contact Carbolink Technical Support for surface preparation recommendations.
