SURFACE PREPARATION

All surfaces to be coated must be free of all oil, grease, dirt, rust, form release agents, laitance, and other
contaminants to insure proper adhesion. Surface to be coated shall be in sound condition, clean and dry.

Please consult with ARC Technical Representative for detailed surface preparation guidelines for each ap-
plication.

General or minimum surface preparation for steel and concrete are as follows:
Steel:
Prior to abrasive blasting remove all oil and grease and other contaminants by SSPC-SP1
Solvent Cleaning. Blast clean surfaces using an angular, sharp abrasive for best surface profile.
Remove all weld spatter and round any and all sharp edges by grinding. All bare steel shall be
primed or finish coated the same day to protect and hold the blast.
Immersion: SSPC-SP10 / NACE 2, with a minimum 3 mil profile
Non-immersion/Atmospheric – SSPC-SP10 / NACE 2, with a minimum 3 mil profile
Concrete and Masonry:
SSPC-SP13 / NACE 6
CSP 3 to 5
It is recommended that a Calcium Chloride Test as per ASTM F1869 always be performed to the
concrete. Do not proceed with application if Moisture Vapor Emission is greater than 3 lbs.
Always use a primer prior to application of spray applied polyurea on concrete or masonry
surfaces.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
As indicated on current data sheet

May consider adding a 50% overlap with each pass of gun to avoid holidays, pinholes and insure desired film
build is achieved. When applying cross spray at 90 degree angles or in a cross hatch pattern.

All coverage rates described above are calculated and estimated on volume solids and do not factor in an
application loss factor. Loss factors to consider would be; surface profile irregularity, porosity of the surface,
excessive roughness of surface, applicator skill and ability, material loss due to spills, mixing, expiration due
to climatic conditions and irregular or excessive film build.

STORAGE

ARC-120 shall be stored and protected from moisture contamination. Store pails and drums in a dry, protect-
ed location at 60F to 90F (16C to 32C). Drums and pails must be kept sealed at all times. It is recommended
that a positive feed dry air, nitrogen blanket or desiccant cartridge system be used.

All material shall be maintained a minimum 50F (10C) in their original containers. Containers shall not be
opened until ready for immediate use. To avoid air entrapment, undue agitation of pails or drums shall be
avoided.
