WINTOP ESL : Self Levelling Epoxy Topping

WINTOP ESL is a four component self levelling epoxy based topping to give a high gloss floor coating experience. It can be laid from 0.5 mm to 2 mm thickness. It finds wide application in Industrial, chemical, automotive, pharmaceutical and similar other industries.

Surface Requirement: Joints in substrate should be maintained while floor topping with WINTOP-ESL is done. WINTOP-ESL should be used only on high strength substrates. New concrete should be cured for a minimum 28 days.

Surface Preparation: All surfaces must be sound, clean, dry, free from oil, grease, cement laitance and all loosely adhering particles. Basic Concrete floor defects such as voids, bug holes, excess porosity, and physical and chemical damage are usually filled or repaired prior to the installation of the Floor coating system with specially formulated High strength, Non shrink, self curing, self bonding, fast curing epoxy flooring compatible epoxy resin based repairing mortar used to level, smooth and patch damaged surfaces.

Old Concrete surfaces: Surface contaminations, e.g. oil, paint and rubber or any other contaminations should be removed and adequate mechanical preparation carried out to achieve a sound and stable surface When clear of all surface contamination, the concrete should be prepared mechanically to remove all laitance and expose a fresh surface. After surface preparation all loose debris and dirt should be removed by vacuum machine

Primer application: Use the primer as recommended for specific use. Mix components of the appropriate Wintop primers in proportion as recommended. Once mixed, primer should be immediately applied in a thin, continuous film using a stiff brush/ roller or trowel. Porous floors may require two coats of primer. Primer should be allowed to cure sufficiently, normally 6 – 18 hrs, prior to application of WINTOP-ESL.

Application of WINTOP: ESL WINTOP-ESL is supplied in pre-weighed four components ready to use on site. Preferably use a slow speed electric stirrer for mixing components. First mix WINTOP–ESL (Resin) with colour-pigment in a mixing vessel until uniform colour is obtained. Then add WINTOP-ESL (Hardener) and stir well. Finally add Aggregate SL-200 and stir until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. Spread WINTOP-ESL mixture on the prepared surface by using a toothed trowel or comb. After approximately 10 minutes, use a spiked roller to remove entrapped air. Allow floor topping to cure for 2 to 7 days at room temperature before use. Depending upon the size of the trowel, thickness can be adjusted from 1 mm to 2 mm.
