Epoxy microcement for interior floors and walls | Industtrial

Industtrial epoxy microcement is formulated so that it is not necessary to use mesh, as it is a product that is applied in very thin layers that favour optimum drying. If mesh were used, the layers of product would be much thicker and there would be a risk of cracking.

As with other microcement systems, it is essential to prepare the substrate properly to ensure a good decorative coating. In this sense, the substrate must be well consolidated, have a good planimetry and be free of damp (if this is not the case, it will be necessary to remedy it).

In the case of Industtrial epoxy microcement, the Primapox®or Primacem family can be used as a primer. The choice of one or the other will depend on the substrate on which Industtrial is to be applied.

Yes, Primacem ABS (absorbent surfaces) or Primacem Plus (non-absorbent surfaces) can be used without any problem as a primer for Industtrial epoxy microcement. However, to ensure high performance, we recommend using Primapox®for a complete epoxy system.

Although our Industtrial epoxy microcement guarantees superior resistance to other systems, including greater impermeability to running water, it is necessary to seal it. With this added protection, Industtrial's durability increases exponentially.

Depending on the finish that each professional is looking for, as well as the performance required by the use to which it is going to be applied, Industtrial epoxy microcement can be sealed with different varnishes. Mainly with our water-based varnishes Topsealer® WT Dragon and Topsealer® WT One Coat, as shown in the step-by-step application of the product.

However, to protect Industtrial epoxy microcement, you can also use our solvent-based Topsealer® DSV varnish or our 100% solids Coverpox (epoxy) or Topsealer® Pro + (cold polyurea) varnishes.

Industtiral epoxy microcement is composed of aggregates, without the need for cement, as is the case with our ready to use microcement Efectto Quartz. For this reason, the application of the Presealer can be avoided and the step-by-step time is reduced.

We have developed a total of 16 colours for Industtrial epoxy microcement, which are the samples shown above. However, if a customer would like to pigment the product with another colour, they can easily do so using our ARCOCEM BASIC.

Whenever we talk about interior spaces, Industtrial epoxy microcement can be used on walls and ceilings. Although it is true that due to its resistance to wear and tear and traffic above all, it is more suitable for use on floors.

No. Industtrial epoxy microcement cannot be applied on façades. As we have already explained, it is not recommended to use this product outdoors due to the real possibility of yellowing of the epoxy resin.

Industtrial epoxy microcement fits perfectly in interior areas exposed to high traffic such as offices, shopping centres, warehouses, etc. Spaces that require more industrial resistance.

Beyond its hardness and resistance, Industtrial epoxy microcement is characterised by its versatility. So yes, if the applicator wishes to achieve a water effect, it can be achieved.

To apply our Industtrial epoxy microcement on tiles, the first thing to do is to fill the joints with Primacem® Joint. A filler and smoothing putty which purpose is to prevent the tracing from being noticed after coating the surface with microcement.

The substrate should then be primed with two coats of our Primacem® Plus primer for non-absorbent surfaces. Primapox® Barrier epoxy primer could also be used, but we only recommend it when moisture may damage the substrate.

The A component of Industtrial epoxy microcement is the only one that is pigmented. Depending on the colour chosen, the proportions of the mixtures will be different. Component A can be pigmented in advance and left in stock until the product is applied. In this way, distributors have the possibility to sell the pigmented product directly. Any pigment that may remain in the bottle can be collected with a little water.

In addition, the versatility of Industtrial allows you to play with the different colours available to achieve a more natural finish if possible. In other words, the base layer can be pigmented with one colour and the top layer with a different one to create a very attractive visual contrast. As for the guarantee of the material, it is one year.

Once component A has been mixed with component B, water cannot be added as it repels water. In the case of wanting to add water, it will have to be done in component A before mixing it with component B.

Industtrial is an epoxy microcement that is designed with a texture suitable for its application, so adding water is not necessary. It is important to note that it is not a product compatible with the addition of resins.

Epoxy 100 Accelerator is a curing Accelerator which, as the name suggests, is intended to accelerate and reduce the drying time of the product. If it is not incorporated in component A of the Industtrial epoxy microcement, the drying times would be very long.

It is absolutely not recommended to add Epoxy 100 Accelerator to component B of Industtrial epoxy microcement because it would cause a reaction and harden the product. Therefore it could not be applied.

We do not recommend this, because Industtrial two-component could diminish its excellent performance.
