TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 is a two-component, solvent borne epoxy primer/sealer. It is a high penetration primer/sealer for use with urethane deck coating and waterproofing membrane systems where solvent based primers can be tolerated.

Basic uses: TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 is also used as a primer/sealer for porous substrates such as wood, plywood, concrete and for surface treated (pre-primed) metal. It is insensitive to humid application conditions and will cure well in the desert as well as tropical environments. Tests have shown that the use of TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 as a barrier coat significantly reduces the incidence of pinholing and surface imperfections in polyurethane waterproofing installations as compared to similar applications on an untreated substrate. TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 enhances the long-term adhesion of the polyurethane membrane to the substrate. It is also an excellent coating for dust proofing concrete. TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 also has good adhesion to properly cleaned ferrous metal.

Color:   Side-A: Clear

Side-B: Amber

Packaging: TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 is packaged in kit form. The VOLUME MIXING ratio is 1 part Side-A to 1 part Side-B (Side-A / Side-B = 1:1). TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 is available in kits of two (2) quarts, two (2) gallons, and two (2) each 5 gallon pails.

Warning: The A & B-Sides of this product are considered Dangerous Goods. They are classified as: RESIN SOLUTION, Class 3, UN 1866, PG II, FLAMMABLE LIQUID.

Limitations: Once the material is mixed together, it must be used within one (1) hour at 77ºF since TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 cures and solidifies rapidly when the two parts interact. Unmixed containers which are left open must also be used within several days since TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 contains solvents which evaporate when exposed to air. TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 should not be diluted. Surfaces to be coated with TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 must be dry, clean, and free of all foreign matter.

Precaution:  TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 is a component of the TUFFLEX Decking Systems. It should primarily be used as stipulated in the various TUFFLEX SPECIFICATIONS. Results occurring from use other than what is stipulated in the TUFFLEX SPECIFICATIONS is not tested or guaranteed by TUFFLEX.

Ensure that the decking substrate is properly prepared prior to application.

SURFACE PREPARATION: All surfaces to be coated with TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 must be free of all contamination including visible water, curing compounds, oils, grease, paint, and dirt. Concrete surfaces should be free of roughness which will show through and be noticeable in the completed application. Concrete can be cleaned by shot blasting, hydroblasting or acid etching (followed by neutralizing and thorough rinsing with a pressure-washer) and allowed to completely dry.

Mixing instructions: TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 Side-A and Side-B should be thoroughly agitated prior to mixing to ensure a homogeneous material. TUFF-POXY PRIMER #2 must always be mixed using equal amounts of Side-A and Side-B. The combined components should be thoroughly mixed using a mechanical mixer at slow speed for a couple of minutes or mixed for at least 5 minutes if mixed by hand.

Optional: (If odor or the use of flammable solvents is not a concern.) Additional small amounts of solvent can be added if desired and if allowed by local VOC regulations. Contact the factory to determine the amount of solvent which can be added in fluid ounces per gallon of mixed A & B. Blend with a mechanical mixer (explosion proof) for 3 minutes. Induction time is not required.
