Equipment Cleaning
The equipment used should be cleaned with water following the application before the
mortar dries. The dried epoxy can be cleaned mechanically. In order for easy mechanical
cleaning of epoxy, the contaminated tools may be kept within such solvents as thinner,
acetone or toluene for 1 to 2 hours, which would soften the epoxy.

temperature and 50% ± 5 relative humidity conditions. The values provided as per the table
may vary depending on the surface and ambient conditions.
CONSUMPTION
The recommended consumption amount is roughly 3.0 - 3.5 kg/m 2 when used as adhesive.
One set of product can coat some roughly 1.3 - 1.6 m 2 surface area.
The consumption amount varies depending on the condition of the application surface and
the coating material used when used as joint filler.
