Surface Preparation - ENECRETE®
DuraFill should only be applied to clean, dry, firm and well
roughened surfaces.

1. Remove all loose material and surface contamination.

2. Depending on the surface, solvent clean and / or remove
contamination by abrasive blasting, steam cleaning,
pressure washing, or other suitable means.

3. After removing all surface and sub-surface contamination,
flush the area as necessary and allow to dry completely.

Mixing & Application - For your convenience, the ENECRETE®
DuraFill Base and Activator have been supplied in precisely
measured quantities to simplify mixing of full units. However,
because of the volume of material supplied, only the amount of
material that can be used within its Working Life should be
mixed at a time. A partial mix can be accomplished by mixing 2
parts Base to 1 part Activator by volume (2:1, v/v).

While hand mixing is possible, the use of a suitable mechanical
mixing device is recommended to facilitate the mixing process.
Pour the desired amounts of Base and Activator into a suitable
container and mix together thoroughly.
For “bulk fill” applications...
Add the selected aggregate to the mixed Base and Activator
liquids a little at a time and continue mixing until the desired
consistency is achieved. As a guide, when using fine sand as the
filler, a volume equal to approximately 5 times the volume of
mixed liquids has been found to yield a good, workable mix. It
may be necessary to adjust this volume to suit the aggregate
being used and the application conditions.

Once mixed, dump the mixed material into the void(s), press /
tamp in well to insure complete and thorough contact with the
substrate and eliminate air pockets and finish as necessary.

For “broadcast floor” applications...
Apply the mixed Base and Activator liquids to the area to be
treated using brushes and / or rollers. For large floor areas,
long handled roller sets should be used to ease the application.
Regardless of the application device / method, press the
material in well to eliminate entrapped air and insure thorough
contact with the surface.

While DuraFill is still wet, broadcast the amount of selected
aggregate necessary (normally about 1 pound per square foot) to
completely cover the area with excess material. Allow to harden
sufficiently (generally overnight) before proceeding. After
curing, sweep up / vacuum the excess loose aggregate (which can
usually be re-used) and inspect the surface. Any imperfections
should be sanded and / or ground down as necessary.

Mix and apply a second coat of the DuraFill liquids over the
area and repeat the broadcast process and curing schedule as
described above. Once sufficiently cured, again sweep up /
vacuum the excess aggregate and thoroughly inspect the surface.
After “touching up” any imperfections by sanding and / or
grinding, mix and apply another layer of the DuraFill liquids
and allow to cure completely before returning the area to
service.

Note: additional “layers” of DuraFill liquids and aggregate may
be applied as detailed above to achieve the desired build-up /
thickness for the system.

Health and Safety - Every effort is made to insure that ENECON®
products are as simple and safe to use as possible. Normal
industry standards and practices for housekeeping, cleanliness
and personal protection should be observed. Please refer to the
detailed MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS (MSDS) supplied with the
material (also available on request) for more information.

Cleaning Equipment - Wipe excess material from tools
immediately. Use acetone, MEK, isopropyl alcohol or similar
solvent as needed.
