Must be resistant to incidental splash and spillage of dilute (5%) sulfuric acid, (15%) hydrochloric acid, (20%) sodium hydroxide, gasoline and heavy duty cleaners and detergents. Used as a self-priming material on smooth, low porosity concrete, masonry and wood surfaces. On concrete masonry units (blocks) MPI #4 Latex (dry areas) or #116 Epoxy (damp areas) block fillers are used as the first coat. On ferrous and galvanized metals, a primer such as MPI #20 Epoxy Zinc Rich, #101 Epoxy Anti-Corrosive and #19 Inorganic Zinc rich primers. On non-ferrous metals MPI #80 Etch Type Primer is specified. This epoxy shall be able to be applied at temperatures ranging from 15° to 40° C and a maximum relative humidity of 80%.
