CoveCoat Stem Cove Primer Single Component 1-Gal

CoveCoat Stem Cove Primer eliminates the need to use floor epoxy as an adhesive for decorative 1/4" flake chips on coves, stem walls, stair risers, foundation walls, and other vertical concrete surfaces. This easy-to-use, single-component coating provides exceptional adhesion, making it simple to achieve full flake coverage on vertical areas simple and effective.

IF APPLICABLE! Apply decorative 1/4" flake chips to coves, stem walls, stair risers, foundation walls, and other vertical concrete surfaces before any floor coating products are applied. Completing this step first eliminates the need for additional floor epoxy on vertical surfaces.

Surfaces to be sealed must be clean, dry, and free of oil, stains and silicone compounds. Substrate to be coated must be moisture free.

FEATURES:

• Adhesion to concrete or painted surfaces
• Uniform in color
• Non-yellowing
• Resistant to fading or discoloration
• Solvent FREE
• Excellent water resistance

Concrete Preparation: Surfaces to be sealed must be clean, dry, and free of oil, stains and silicone compounds.

1. Stir primer for 30-45 seconds before application.

HOW TO APPLY? CoveCoat Stem Cove Primer

Apply when surface and ambient temperatures range between 50 F and 90 F and will remain that way for 24 hours.

APPLICATION:

1. Working in 2-3 foot sections, apply CoveCoat evenly to the vertical surface using a brush or roller. Avoid excessive buildup, runs, or puddling.

2. Immediately pour decorative 1/4" flake chips onto the floor directly in front of the freshly coated area. Using a wide putty knife, scoop the flakes upward onto the wet CoveCoat surface until complete coverage is achieved. Tossing flakes by hand onto vertical surfaces typically will not provide full, uniform coverage.

3. For stair steps and other horizontal surfaces, apply CoveCoat by brush or roller and broadcast decorative flakes to full coverage while the coating remains wet.

NOTE: Proper PPE (personal protective equipment), including gloves, eye protection, and appropriate respiratory protection, must be worn at all times during the mixing and application of epoxy products.

CLEAN UP:

Mixing bucket and mixer/blades should be scraped out thoroughly and cleaned with solvents such as acetone or xylene. Once product begins hardening isopropyl alcohol, or acetone. Once dry, product can only be removed mechanically.

WARNING! SLIP AND FALL PRECAUTIONS

OSHA and the American Disabilities Act (ADA) have now set enforceable standards for slip resistance on pedestrian surfaces. The current coefficient of friction required by ADA is .6 on level surfaces and .8 on ramps. It is recommended that the use of angular slip-resistant aggregate in all coatings or flooring systems that may be exposed to wet, oily or greasy conditions. It is the contractor and end users’ responsibility to provide a flooring system that meets current safety standards. WiseBond® or its sales agents will not be responsible for injury incurred in a slip and fall accident.

Handling & PPE Precautions

Use only with adequate ventilation. Appropriate cartridge-type respirator must be used during application in confined areas. Avoid contact with skin. Some individuals may be allergic to product. Protective gloves and clothing are recommended.
