Super Base Two-Part Epoxy was designed as a base coating to be used to smooth asphalt, concrete and particle board surfaces and is not intended to be used as a skate floor coating. Roll-On Skate Floor Finish over Super Base insures the best possible skating surface.

• NOTE: All surfaces must be properly prepared and cleaned as  outlined in the current Roll-On Floor Finish Data Publication available from your nearest Roll On supplier.

Concrete: 4 to 5 coats

Particle Board: 5 to 6 coats

Asphalt: 10 coats

1. Squeegee surface using normal squeegee technique.

2. Allow a minimum of 4 hours drying time between each coat. (All drying times are estimated and are based upon a recommended building temperature of 68 to 72 degrees (F).)

3. After the third coat, allow 12 hours drying time.

4. LIGHTLY CLEAN AND SAND SUPER BASE SURFACE AS FOLLOWS:

• After third coat, sand surface by using No. 60 grit sand paper under one or more large floor polishers.
   

• After sanding, drag the surface carefully by soaking a large terrycloth towel in a bucket of CLEAR WATER.
   

• (DO NOT USE MINERAL SPIRITS, DETERGENTS, OR SOLVENTS.)
   

• Wring out and wrap the towel around a 24" or 36" push broom. Push the towel across the width of the skating surface (not the length). Upon reaching the other side, turn the towel over so that the clean wet side is face down on the surface and push it back to the other side. Overlap a little for a cleaner surface.

5. Squeegee additional coats until the remaining product has been used. (NOTE: For asphalt, additional sanding and cleaning is required after coat No. 6 and coat No. 9.)

6. After final application of Super Base, allow a minimum of 12 hours drying time before sanding and cleaning the surface.

7. Before applying Roll-On skate floor finish, obtain the current Data Publication (Roll-On Floor Finish over Coated Floors) from your supplier.

1. Pour mixture into a thoroughly cleaned airless sprayer container.

2. Using 15/1000 orifice, spray entire skating surface at a controlled rate of 200 square feet per gallon. ESTIMATED TIME OF APPLICATION: 2 hours per 10,000 square feet.

3. Once spray application begins, it must continue until the entire surface has been coated.

4. Allow the first coat to dry a minimum of 18 hours, keeping the room at a temperature of 68 to 70 degrees (F) with good building ventilation during this time.

5. Once the floor is dry, lightly sand and clean Super Base surfaces as follows:

• SANDING: Sand surface by using 60 grit sand paper under one or more large floor polishers.
   

• CLEANING: After sanding, drag the surface carefully by soaking a large terrycloth towel in a bucket of CLEAN WATER.
   

• DO NOT USE MINERAL SPIRITS, DETERGENTS, OR SOLVENTS.
   

• Wring out and wrap the towel around a 24" or 36" push broom. Push the towel across the width of the skating surface (not the length). Upon reaching the other side, turn the towel over so that the clean wet side is face down on the surface and push it back to the other side. Overlap a little for a cleaner surface.

6. Apply a second spray coat of Super Base Epoxy. (NOTE: To determine if additional coats are necessary, refer to the "Estimated Gallons Used...")

7. After each application of Super Base, allow 18 hours drying time.

8. Sand and clean between each airless spray application as described above.

9. Before applying Roll-On skate floor finish, obtain the current Data Publication (Roll-On Floor Finish Over Coated Floors) from your supplier.

• Clean equipment and hands immediately with warm water and mild detergent.
   

• When sanding between coats, change sand paper every 500 square feet or less.
   

• Always store sanded material in a sealed metal container.
   

• When spraying, use available building markings to help control coverage (i.e. wall joints, beams or posts).
   

• A controlled floor temperature of 68 to 72 degrees (F) is essential during the application and curing of Super Base Epoxy.
