Machining Once the CeramiGrade Liner has Cleaning Health and safety

3.06 318 container provided. Mix in the ratio indicated. Lids should be replaced immediately after use. The two components should be thoroughly mixed until completely streak free and a uniform colour is achieved, using the spatula provided. The mixture is initially fluid, but becomes thicker as it sets.

3. Application

Prepared Surfaces should be dry. Using the brush provided the mixed material should be painted evenly onto the prepared area, working the material into any cracks and surface defect. Once the CeramiGrade Liner has reached initial set the material can be separated from surfaces treated with release agent. When CeramiGrade Liner is used to repair leaking pipes, the flow through the pipe should be discontinued until the repair is made and the CeramiGrade Liner is set. Any leaking fluid must be wiped from the prepared surface before undertaking the repair. When a second coat is required, this should be done as soon as the first coat has set within 4 hours .

4. Machining Once the CeramiGrade Liner has

cured for the minimum time indicated in the Curing Properties Section of the product specification sheet, sanding, grinding and machining etc. can be carried out using standard engineering practices.

5. Cleaning

All equipment should be cleaned IMMEDIATELY after each use with a cleaner. Failure to follow this procedure will result in application equipment becoming unusable.

6. Health and safety

As long as normal good practices are observed CeramiGrade Liner can be safely used. A fully detailed Material Safety Data Sheet is included with the set. The information provided in this Instruction sheet is intended as a general guide only. Users should determined the suitability of the product for their own particular purposes by their own tests.

Ceramigrade Abrashield is a two component, solvent free, fast curing, synthetic repair compound. It consists of large ceramic particles in an epoxy matrix. Areas of application: Protection of surfaces subject to extreme wear and abrasion caused by solids or slurry. Specifically meant for Dredgers and Cement carriers facing heavy abrasion combined with medium and light impact.

1.Surface preparation

A Heavy contamination due to oil or grease must be removed using a cleaner. Where possible, abrasive blasting is the preferred surface preparation. B Remove all loose rust and surface coatings C Roughen the surface preferably with abrasive blasting to SA. Alternatively a die grinder, needle scaler or angle grinder may be used. If grinding make sure the surface is roughened, not polished. Where grinding or needle gunning is used, the surface should be cross-scored to improve adhesion. D Surfaces subject to abrasive wear is often gouged out and highly polished and must be cross-scored to secure bonding. E Where deep abrasive wear andor a high build up is required, bonding can be secured and improved by welding small angle irons to the surface to be coated. “Anchoring “ the product in this way will give a better key.
