ASTM D1308 Test Method 3.1.1 spot test, covered. Results are based on 1-day and 7-day. Coating cured 2 weeks prior to testing.
Legend:

• E – Excellent (No Adverse Effect) – Recommended.
• G – Good (Limited Adverse Effect) – Use for short-term exposure only.
• F – Fair (Moderate Adverse Effect) – Not recommended.
• P – Poor (Unsatisfactory) – Little or no resistance to chemical.
• Only adverse effect was staining.

NOTE:
Reduced chemical resistance and staining is possible in pigmented versions of the system.
IMPORTANT:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL PRECAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PROCEEDING.
PLEASE SEE SAFETY DATA SHEET (SDS) FOR HANDLING PROCEDURES.
USE PRODUCT AS DIRECTED. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.  PRELIMINARY FLOOR INSPECTIONS
CHECK THE TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY: Floor temperature and materials should be between 65°F (18°C) and 90°F (32°C). Humidity must be less than 80%. DO NOT coat unless floor temperature is more than five degrees over the current, local dew point.
CHECK FOR MOISTURE: Concrete must be dry before application of this floor coating material. Concrete moisture testing must occur. In-situ relative humidity testing is recommended. Readings must be below 75% relative internal concrete humidity. Test methods can be purchased at www.astm.org, see F2170, or follow manufacturer’s instructions. If moisture issues are present, the use of a moisture mitigation system may be a consideration. Please call Tennant Company Technical Support for further information / instructions.
NOTE:
Although moisture testing is critical, it is not a guarantee against future problems. This is especially true if there is no vapor barrier or the vapor barrier is not functioning properly and/or you suspect you may have concrete contamination. Additional testing may be necessary to determine the vapor barrier and any contamination.

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT

• Protective clothing

|

•  Roller assembly (18″)

• Jiffy® mixer blade
  [Tennant Part No. 08643-1 (1 gal) or 08643-5 (5 gal)]

|

• Slow speed drill (500 rpm or less)

|

•  Application tray

|

• Disc machine

•  80 grit sandpaper

|

ASSEMBLE EQUIPMENT: Due to the limited pot life of the material, all application equipment, etc. should be ready for immediate use. (Clean roller with tape to remove any residual lint.)
RECOAT
Eco-HTS 100 may be used to coat over an existing epoxy or urethane in sound condition. Detergent scrub and rinse with clean water to remove surface dirt, grease, oil and contaminants. Floor must be sanded thoroughly with 80 grit paper/60 grit screen prior to recoating. If sanding a high wear urethane, use 60 grit paper as the filler in high wear urethanes will wear down the paper very quickly. Change the paper every 200 sq. ft. (18.6 m2) so abrasive stays sharp.
We recommend thorough sanding with a swing-type buffer so that multiple scratch marks cause an obvious gloss loss on all areas (depressions will remain shiny), and the floor is uniformly dulled. The ability to see individual scratch marks is an indication that sanding is not adequate. Scrub with detergent and rinse with clean water before coating.

BARE CONCRETE APPLICATION

ECO-HTS 100 MUST BE APPLIED OVER A TENNANT 100% SOLIDS EPOXY PRIMER. (See appropriate epoxy product bulletin for application instructions.)
APPLICATION – اTOPCOAT – ECO-HTS 100
PREMIX PART A FOR 3 MINUTES USING A JIFFY® MIXER BLADE with slow speed drill.
POTLIFE: Mix only enough material which can be used in a two-hour period.
NOTE: Once opened, this material cannot be resealed for later use.
COLORS: Premix Tennant Colorant before adding to Eco-HTS 100 to ensure uniform color. Add colorant to Eco-HTS 100 Part A and mix using a Jiffy® mixer blade and slow speed drill. Use colorants at a rate of one unit per 1-gallon (3.78 litres) unit of Eco-HTS 100.
POUR PART C INTO PART A while mixing. CONTINUE TO MIX AND ADD PART B. MIX FOR 3 MINUTES using a Jiffy® mixer blade and slow speed drill. Pour into application tray. APPLY ECO-HTS 100 at the rate of 500 ft2/gallon (46.45 m2/3.78 litres) with a 3/8″ nap roller. For proper appearance and development of physical properties, it is crucial that material is not applied above or below this rate. Dip the roller in the coating and lightly roll out excess in the application tray. Apply two 8-10 foot (2.4-3.0 meters) long paths on the concrete, making one stroke left to right and one right to left. Rewet the roller and apply two more paths adjacent to the first pair. Rewet roller and apply a third pair adjacent to the second.
SPREAD THE MATERIAL evenly with V-shaped cross passes.
MAKE SURE THE FLOOR HAS JUST ENOUGH COATING TO COVER EVENLY. Excess material could cause the floor to blister, especially in high humidity. Insufficient material will cause the floor to look non-uniform.
LEVEL THE AREA with straight passes that cross the initial material paths. These final strokes will reduce roller marks. If the appearance is not satisfactory, reroll the area.
REMIX THE MATERIAL in the tray occasionally (with the roller) to prevent settling of the Part C (filler).
NOTE: When multiple applicators are used to apply material, inconsistencies between areas may result. To ensure a more uniform finish, an individual outfitted with spike shoes may finish by pushing or pulling a roller across all applicator areas.
ALLOW COATING TO DRY 24 HOURS at 75°F (24°C), 50% relative humidity before opening to light traffic. Allow more time at low temperatures, low humidity or for heavier traffic. Full coating properties take 14 days to develop.

DISPOSAL
Dispose of all excess material, packaging and other waste in accordance with federal, state and local regulations.

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

Allow floor coating to cure at least one week before cleaning by mechanical means (e.g., sweeper, scrubber, disc machine).
Care: Proper maintenance will increase the life and help maintain the appearance of your new Tennant floor coating. Sweep and scrub your new coating regularly, as dirt and dust are abrasive and can quickly dull the finish, decreasing the life of your coating. Remove spills quickly as certain chemicals may stain and could possibly permanently damage the finish.
Use soft nylon brushes or white pads on your new floor coating. Any brush more abrasive than a soft nylon or white pad can cause premature loss of gloss.
Detergent: Tennant has a full range of detergents–general purpose to heavy duty–for your cleaning needs. For assistance in determining which detergent is right for your facility or for additional technical information call: 800-228-4943, option 3 (US & Canada), 800-832-8935 (International).
Caution:
Avoid scratching or gouging the surface. All floor coatings will scratch if heavy objects are dragged across the surface.
Do not drop heavy or pointed items on the floor as this may causing chipping or concrete pop outs in the case of a weak cap. Rubber tires can permanently stain the floor coating from plasticizer migration. Plexiglass® between the tire and the floor coating can prevent discoloration. Rubber burns from quick stops and starts can heat the coating to its softening temperature, causing permanent marking.
Repair: Repair gouges or scratches or chip outs as soon as possible to prevent moisture or chemical contamination.
