SwP
Description
Chlorinated rubber based finishing coat.
Recommended Uses
As a self-priming finishing coat used mainly for coating swimming pools and also for protection of permanently submerged concrete surfaces.
Features
-Impermeable to water.
-Excellent weather resistance.
-Excellent resistance to most aqueous media including acids and alkalis.
-Good adhesion on well prepared surfaces.
-Provides resistance to development of mildew and algae.
Application Instruction
• Method of Application : Roller, brush can be used for small areas.
• Mixing : Stir well before application in order to ensure that a uniform consistency is achieved.
• Thinner / Cleaner : S305 “known as RUB thinner” is used for thinning and cleaning. Mixing ratio with S305 depends mainly on temperature.
• Application Temperature : 10-40؛C.
• Note : When recoating, a special attention should be given toward drying times. Temperature of the substrate should be at least 3°C above the dew point of the air to avoid moisture condensation during application Notes: -Never apply SwP over unclean and damp surfaces otherwise the applied coat could be removed easily. -Be sure that SwP is applied on the entire surface to be coated (corners, cavities, etc…) in order to prevent water leakage under the coated surface, otherwise the applied coat could be removed easily. -Never apply SwP in a cloudy or rainy weather and be sure that SwP is not exposed to water before it is fully dry.

Surface Preparation
Well-prepared-surfaces is an essential condition of coating successfulness. In general, surface must be clean, dry, undamaged and free of all contaminants prior to coating.

CONCRETE:

Remove fins and other protrusions by stoning, sanding, or grinding. Abrasive blasting is best to remove all previous coatings, oils, laitance, and other foreign matters. Fill small holes or voids with STOP200. New concrete must be cured at least 28 days at 21°C and 50% RH, or equivalent time. Then apply a thin coat (100 microns dry) of STOP200 “refer to technical leaflet” before applying SWP.

Note: SWP must never be applied over an old paint or over damp and contaminated surfaces soiled by grease, oil, or other contaminants.
Drying Time
• Dry to Touch : 30 minutes (ASTM-D1640).
• Dry to Handle : 6 hours (ASTM-D1640). The minimum recoat time is 3 hours.
• Note : Drying times can be affected by many factors such as temperature, ventilation and coat thickness. Higher temperatures will shorten the drying times.
Storing Conditions
-SWP has to be kept in a cool and well-ventilated place, protected from heat and direct sunlight. SWP is classified under highly flammable materials.
-Shelf life is two years from packing date in unopened original containers at 5 to 30°C. Containers should be kept tightly closed.

Safety:
-Well-ventilated conditions should be provided during application.
-Do not breathe or inhale mist.
-Wear air mask and avoid skin or eye contact
