HYDRO EPOX 1200 is a high quality, two component epoxy coating, VOC free, hardened with amine. It is specially designed for the interior and the exterior coating of metallic and cement tanks, industrial floors, laboratory work benches, pipes that are used for the storage and transfer of drinking water (up to 100 ̊C) and some foodstuff. It presents excellent resistance in fresh and seawater, chemicals and lubricants. It covers all the high demands of anticorrosive protection for industrial applications. It is not suitable for fuel and solvent tanks. It is certified by European institute according to Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011 and Regulation (EU) No. 1935/2004 which refers to the suitability for contact with drinking water and foodstuff.

Surface Preparation
(The above times are indicative and depend on the thinning percentage, moisture and temperature)
The material for storage in the bulk must be contacted with the coating after 3 weeks of the surface coating until it is fully dried
The surface must be clean from dust, detached pieces and other materials like oil, grease etc.
METAL SURFACES: Metal surfaces must be cleaned from rust by sandblasting at least Sa 2 according to standard ISO 8501-1 or must be blasted at Sa 2 1⁄2 with 30mm profile for prolonged exposure of the surface. After blasting, surfaces should be cleaned thoroughly to remove all foreign matter. Substrates Zinc dust Rich Epoxy Primer 751 and Epoxy Primer 812 are recommended for demanding corrosion protection of metal surfaces.
CEMENT SURFACES: The concrete surfaces are often covered by a layer of plaster or sprinkled with cement. These layers are weaker than the heart of cement, which is loosely clasped. Such layers should be removed entirely. Purification of cement should be done with solvents, although the best and safest way is by sandblasting. Prior to application surfaces must be completely clean and dry. For concrete surfaces is recommended to use the epoxy primer 850, particularly when it comes to low quality surfaces. The high penetration of this primer provides the substrate with the necessary stability, connects any residual dust and closes or at least diminishes their resources. Any defects (cracks, holes) can be sealed using epoxy putty 800. Upon application of the substrate must take 24 hours to apply the final coting.
Mix A:B-4:1 (by weight) and stir very well. It is strongly recommended to use mechanical stirring. It is applied with airless (nozzle 0,01-0,021in), brush or roller. It is ready to use, do not need the addition of thinner. If necessary it is thinned up to 5% with thinner 1131. The coated surfaces should not be in contact with water until they are fully dried. If not the recoating time is succeeded, the surface must be slightly sanded.
