AndCoat HB Low Temperature

AndCoat HB LT – Fast-Curing High-Build Epoxy Floor Coating

AndCoat HB LT is a solvent-free, high-build epoxy resin floor coating designed for protective and decorative applications on concrete, even at low temperatures down to 5°C. It provides a coloured gloss finish that is abrasion and chemical resistant, hygienic, and easy to maintain, making it ideal for industrial, commercial, and food processing environments.

Key Features:

• Fast application

• Hygienic & easy to clean

• Suitable for low-temperature application

• Solvent-free

• Good chemical resistance

• Seamless floor finish

Typical Areas of Usage:

• Industrial & warehouse floors

• Car park decking

• Commercial spaces

• Food processing areas

• Manufacturing facilities

• Workshops

Surface Preparation 

To be assured of maximum adhesion and best properties from Andrews Coatings products the correct surface preparation is essential. The concrete substrate must be a minimum of 28 days old and the residual moisture content must be a maximum of 75% RH. The substrate should be sound with a minimum compressive strength of 25 N/mm and a
minimum pull-off strength of 1.5 N/mm. The surface must be clean, dry and free of contaminants such as dirt, oil, grease, coatings and surface treatments and contain a functioning damp proof membrane. If in doubt, apply a test area first. Concrete substrates should be mechanically prepared using vacuum enclosed abrasive blast cleaning or diamond grinding equipment to remove laitance and previous surface treatments followed by thorough vacuuming leaving an open textured surface. Weak concrete must be removed and repaired using recommended Andrews Coatings products.

Technical Data

Directions for Use

Apply by brush and short/medium piled roller at a nominal rate of 0.25 Kg/m2. After a minimum of 16 hours and before a maximum of 24 hours, apply a second coat at the same
coverage rate. The first coat must not be contaminated prior to applying the second coat. Should a non-slip finish be required, a suitable aggregate should be scattered onto the first coat of the AndCoat LT whilst still wet. Any excess aggregate should be swept from the surface using a Vacuum or clean brush prior to application of the second coat.

Note: Reduced rates of coverage will be experienced for the second coat, depending on aggregate chosen, and a further coat may be required to obtain an even finish. The ambient temperature of the substrate and works area must be a minimum of 5°C during the application and curing period, if not adhered to this can adversely affect the cure, colour and appearance of the system. Materials and substrate temperature must be above 5°C on a rising thermometer.
