Description
Polythane PR is a two component fast curing aromatic polyurea based elastomeric waterproofing coating system for concrete and metal surfaces and polyurethane foams. Free from solvents, the product is a 100% solid low VOC coating., which is applied by a high pressure spray plural component pump. Polythane PR can be applied in a single or multiple layers in thicknesses ranging from 250 microns to 2.5mm on vertical surfaces without sagging.
TDS For Polythane PR
- Step by Step
Substrate preparation
A proper substrate preparation is required to be done prior to applying the coating:
Concrete:
Clean the surface thoroughly of all contaminants. Suitable blasting method can be used as per the guidelines specified in ASTM D4259 for surface cleaning. Cracks and potholes shall be repaired with a suitable product from the Polycrete* concrete repair system.
Metal:
Metal surfaces shall be grit blasted to a bright finish meeting the requirements of SA2½.
Priming
Prime the prepared surface with Polyprime PU* @ 4-5m²/L and allow it to dry completely before the application of the polyurea coating.For damp substrates, apply Polyprime R* as primer @4-5m²/L
Mixing
Polythane PR application shall be done using a high pressure plural spray equipment. Technical Specification (Proportioning Unit)
Output capacity >7.5 lt/minute
Operating/Static Pressure > 2500 psi
Spray pressure at Gun >2300 psi
Primary heating 70°C – 80°C
Hose heating 70°C – 80°C
Volume ratio of mix 1:1
Application temperature 80°C
Application pressure 150 – 180 bar
Application
The coating should not be diluted with any solvent under any circumstances. Use Polyfoam Cleaner for purge line and flushing of the spray equipments prior to application to remove all impurities. Spray the coating as evenly as possible. It can be applied from 250 microns to 2.5mm in multiple passes without any considerable sag on vertical surfaces.
Protection
The applied coating shall be protected by Protection Boards (Bituboard/Bitustick R400)*, in case if backfilling is required.
CAUTION:
i. The coating should not be applied directly on wet or damp substrates.
ii. Outdoor application should be avoided during extreme climatic conditions.
Note: For permanent exposure to UV, it is recommended to apply Polypur TC20* over the Polythane PR coating.
