Rust-Oleum 5500 Solvent Free Epoxy is a high build epoxy floor paint for garages, warehouses, showrooms, corridors, indoor car parks, workshops etc.
Recommended Use
5500 is designed for application on concrete and masonry and can also be used on blasted steel, primarily intended for roller application and may also be applied by brush for small areas or touch-up only. A two coat 5500 System assures appropriate protection when in contact with chemicals (see chemical resistance guide), frequent chemical cleaning or high humidity and moisture conditions. Can be applied directly on properly cleaned, sound mineral substrates, sound, well prepared previous Epoxy coatings; porous substrates should be primed with 5401, 5401WB or 5421 Impregnation Primer; very dense substrates, like ceramic tiles, should be primed with Super Adhesive 3333 or 3366. 5500 can be applied directly on blasted steel or blasted galvanised steel; if required primed with RUSTOLEUM 9170/9180 Primer.
Features
High build coating (150 microns), very durable Suitable for frequent (chemical) cleaning Resistant to oils and solvents As hard and dense as ceramic tiles
Surface Preparation
Remove grease, oil and all other surface contaminations by alkaline or high pressure (steam) cleaning in combination with appropriate detergents. Sand intact coatings to roughen the surface slightly. The surface must be clean and dry during application.
Concrete and masonry: New concrete or masonry should dry and cure for at least 30 days before applying the coating system. Remove laitance, loose and unsound concrete or deteriorated coatings preferably by abrasive blasting and repair surface defects with 5180 Epoxy Reapir Mortar or Epoxy Putty 5412. Very dense and smooth concrete should be abrasive blasted or primed with Super Adhesive 3333 or 3366.
Steel: Remove loose rust, rust scale and deteriorated coatings by abrasive blasting to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1 : 1988), blast profile max. 100 μm. For immersion purposes, prepare to Sa 3 (ISO 8501-01 : 1988), blast profile max. 75 μm.
