Equa-Mix Epoxy Floor Repair Kit

The “Equa-Mix” epoxy is a solvent-free, two-part epoxy resin and hardener system that’s incredibly easy to use. Simply mix one part of “A” with one part of “B” (hence the name “equal mix”), either by hand or using a drill mixer, and add the aggregate provided as needed for your particular use. The impact-resistant Equa-Mix epoxy mortar can be used in any thickness, from a feather edge to several inches thick, in just one application. This outstanding floor repair system has a long, proven history of success in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and many other commercial and industrial heavy-wear environments.  Our current pricing is $130 per kit plus freight to your location.  Quantities of ten or greater are subject to a 10% discount.

Equa-Mix is recommended for concrete floor repair on new or old concrete, including expansion joints and places with spalling and cracking. A special aggregate blend is available for deep-fill applications. Equa-Mix can be installed in temperatures ranging from 50℉ to 90℉. Equa-Mix starts at $130.

Installation Instructions

Preparation
  1. Look for grease and oil. Remove dirt and oil with a diamond-cup wheel on a grinder or chipping hammer.
  2. Examine area to be filled. It must be clean of dust and dry.
Application
  1. Remove all items from the 5-gallon can. The empty can is your mixing container.
  2. Mix Equa-Mix part “A” and part “B” in equal volumes. Hand stir for two (2) minutes or drill mix for one (1) minute Do not mix more product than can be used in 20 minutes.
  3. Paint mixed material on surface to be filled as a primer coat.
  4. Quickly add enough epoxy aggregate to the rest of the mixed epoxy to make the consistency you require. Less aggregate will help in the flow (and self-level the epoxy), but it will not change the effectiveness of the Equa-Mix.
  5. Place epoxy mix into wet, primed area and smooth with trowel.
  6. Allow to dry for 4 to 6 hours at 70℉. Equa-Mix cures slower at lower temperatures and faster at higher temperatures.
Cautions

Do not apply to wet areas or at temperatures below 50℉. Follow all safety precautions on label and MSDS sheets. Consult material safety data sheets and become thoroughly familiar with product hazards. Read the technical data sheets for more specific properties and the limits of our liability.

Note

Epoxy material cures more slowly at lower temperatures.
