Application:
Preparation:
It is essential that adequate preparation is carried out prior to the application of SpECtop WDE100. Light sweep blasting is strongly recommended to ensure the removal of all laitance, grease, and oil. If etching is required, very light traffic environments may use dilute hydrochloric acid, ensuring the floor is neutralized, wet vacuumed, and allowed to dry prior to application.
Slip Resistant Finish:
If a slip resistant finish is to be provided, then SpECtop NS GRAINS is required. For a slip resistant profile, the first coat of SpECtop WDE100 is completely blinded with the chosen grade of SpECtop NS GRAINS while the first coat is still wet.
Mixing:
SpECtop WDE100 is supplied in a two-component pack consisting of a base component and a pigmented curing agent. Both components should be briefly stirred to ensure that any settlement products are fully suspended. The entire contents of the base component should be emptied into the hardener component, ensuring that the sides of the base component tin are carefully scraped to remove all material. The product should then be mixed until uniform, using a slow-speed, heavy-duty drill and mixing paddle for at least 3 minutes.
Application:
The mixed product may be applied by brush or paint roller. The recommended consumption rate is 14.00 m²/litre per coat (0.014m³), applying a minimum of two coats.
Equipment Cleaning:
All equipment may be cleaned of uncured material using water.

SpECtop WDE100 is supplied in convenient packaging options to meet various project needs:
– SpECtop WDE100: Available in 4.5 litre and 15 litre containers
– SpECtop NS GRAINS: Supplied in 25kg bags, with a size of 0.4 – 0.7mm
