How to Use
Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive is a two-part, gap filling epoxy paste adhesive suitable for many types of bonding and filling applications.
It is available in conveniently pre-packaged 1 litre, 4 litre and 20 litre kits with a simple 1:1 mix ratio.
It has a 1 hour work time and a 24 hour cure time at 25ºC.
Surface Preparation
Prior to mixing, you need to ensure that all contact surfaces such as metal, concrete and stone are clean and clear of oil, dust and any other surface contaminants.
Concrete and stone surfaces should be prepared by grinding the surface and removing all the dust and debris. This helps ensure effective bonding contact.
Compressed air can be used to remove dust from cracks and holes.
Clean metal surfaces with acetone to remove any oils or contaminants.
Safety and PPE
Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive is VOC-free.
As with all epoxy resins, please wear appropriate PPE, including eyewear gloves and clothing.
Mixing
IMPORTANT. Only make a suitable quantity that can be used within a 60-minute work time!
Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive should be mixed on a non-porous, flat surface.
Using individual spatulas for Part A and Part B, measure out equal amounts from their containers. Place them next to each other on the mixing surface. Ensure you have the same height and roundness for both parts BEFORE combining.
To combine, using the spatulas, begin by folding the part A over the part B and then working together in a zig-zag motion.
Make sure to scrape the underneath the combined product and onto the flat mixing surface. This will help to collect and combine any un-mixed part A or B.
While mixing the epoxy, make sure to clean the spatulas by scraping off any un-combined Part A or part B and then mix thoroughly.
When the epoxy appears completely streak-free and uniform in colour, it’s ready for use.
Application
Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive is recommended for bonding precast concrete; metal-to-metal or concrete grouting bolts; compressed cement sheeting; bricks; ceramics; and natural stone.
Because it’s a thick paste, Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive can be applied easily with a trowel for a perfect bond. Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive is ideal for filling and repair of concrete pipes and tanks; filling core holes; patching concrete floors; stairs; posts; and flush filling counter-sunk screws in fibre cement.
Applying Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive to cracks and holes is easy and fast, and because it doesn’t sag, Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive is ideal for overhead or vertical surfaces. It’s rapid-setting and will cure even in cold or damp conditions, stronger than concrete with good chemical resistance and high compressive strength.
Clean-up
Uncured Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive can be cleaned with Megapoxy Thinners.
Please Dispose of contents and container in accordance with local, regional, national and international regulations.
Finishing
A smooth finish can be achieved by wetting a clean spatula with water and gliding it over the surface. Be sure to re-wet the blade frequently to prevent the epoxy gripping.
Once cured, Megapoxy P1 Epoxy Paste Adhesive can be machined, sanded and polished to a fine finish.
