Due to the low modulus and environmentally friendly nature it is ideal for use as a protection system in the wastewater and chemical industries.

COLORS:

SEWER SHIELD® 150 SPRAYABLE is supplied in the following color: IVORY

SURFACE PREPARATION:

 Concrete must be structurally sound, dry or damp, free of grease, oils, coatings, dust, curing compounds and other contaminants. Surface laitance must be removed. The preferred method of surface preparation is abrasive blasting or shotblasting. For oil contaminated surfaces using steam cleaning in conjunction with strong emulsifying detergent may be considered. Rinse thoroughly with potable water. After cleaning, remove defective concrete, honeycombs, cavities, joint crack voids and other defects by routing to sound material. Smooth, precast and formed concrete surfaces must be cleaned, roughened and made absorptive by abrasive blasting or shotblasting. If it is not possible to abrasive blast or shotblast, acid etching with a 15% Hydrochloric acid solution. After etching pressure wash or flush the surface with copious amounts of water to neutralize the surface. Care must be taken to ensure that all salts and residue from the reaction have been removed. The pH of the surface should be checked as per ASTM D4262 following acid etching. Following surface preparation, the cleaned surface should pull concrete when tested with an Elcometer or similar pull tester (ASTM D4541). Before application of the lining system, use the “Visqueen test” (ASTM D4263) to evaluate moisture level in concrete.

New Concrete:

Green concrete should be allowed to cure for a minimum of 28 days. (Consult manufacturer if earlier times are required). Remove any surface hardener or curing compounds, by using the recommended mechanical methods for surface preparation. Prepare surfaces as recommended above.

Old Concrete:

For quick, small patching use suitable epoxy mortar; for larger areas, use cementitious patching materials which are compatible with the system. After patching, a light brush blast is recommended prior to coating.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:

EWER SHIELD® 150 is available in pre-measured, pre-proportioned kits. Pour the entire contents of Part B, Hardener into the Part A, Base and mix thoroughly with a low speed drill and a “Jiffy” mixer paddle. Mix for a minimum of 3 minutes. Scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing container (including the paddle of the mixer) during mixing. If the paddle is too small or equipment is not adequate it will not give a uniform mix and an incomplete cure will result together with wet spots. Over mixing with a high speed drill will shorten the pot life as well as introduce excess air into the mix. Mix only enough material that can be used within the working life. Automated mixing and metering equipment can be used for rapid installation. Contact manufacturer for information.

COVERAGE:

Coverage rates are approximate and for estimating purposes only. Surface temperature, porosity, and texture will determine actual material requirements. Recommended: 25-30 mills. DFT 64 sqft per gal. @ 25 mills. 53 sqft per gal. @ 30 mills.

CLEAN-UP INSTRUCTIONS:

Clean tools and application equipment immediately after use with methyl ethyl ketone or xylol. Clean spills or drips while still wet with solvent. Dried material will require mechanical abrasion for removal.

PACKAGING:

SEWER SHIELD® 150 SPRAYABLE is available in 100 GALLON and 500 GALLON KITS.

STORAGE:

50-90 degrees F. Protect from moisture and freezing. Shelf Life: Two years in original, unopened containers, properly stored.

Sewer Shield 100

Sewer Shield 100 is our pride and joy. This was the first coating we engineered ourselves back in 1987. Recognizing where typical industry coatings were failing with only a 30% resistance, we knew we needed a solution that could withstand the hot Phoenix Valley underground environments. So we researched, engineered, and began to manufacture bisphenol-A novolac epoxy unlike any other. It was the first product to offer 98% acid resistance, and is the highest overall chemical resistant coating on the market. We designed this coating to withstand the heaviest and most corrosive environments.

Have you ever seen florescent light bulbs that claim to be better because they are more environmentally friendly? With all the mercury they release into the air and soil, it’s not entirely correct to claim they are “green”. Our coating is made from inert materials and have 0% VOCs which means we do NOT harm the soil, water, or air making our coating a truly environmentally friendly product.

Sewer Shield® 100 is a 100% solids, solvent free, low odor, novolac epoxy system, impervious to a wide variety of acids, solvents, caustic solutions, oils, grease and many other chemicals. Sewer Shield® 100 is specially formulated for various setting times and with virtually no odor, making it the ideal protection system for use in the food, dairy, meat beverage, brewery, and chemical industries. Sewer Shield 100, when cured, provides an impervious, hygienic, easy to clean surface. Its unique formula, which incorporates special adhesion promoters and stress recovering additives, provides a tenacious bond to most surfaces including damp concrete, while also providing ample resilience to resist most cracking from thermal or physical abuse. Sewer Shield® 100 is excellent as a lining system against chemical attack to walls, sumps, trenches, pits and is extremely effective in manholes and below-ground wastewater protection.

Recommended for:

Manholes, Wet Wells, Grit Chambers, Headwork Channels, Clarifiers, Acid Containment, Thickeners, Sewer Piping, Floors, all areas exposed to Hydrogen Sulfide.

Application:

Sewer Shield® 100 is applied by trowel to a thickness of 1/8″ (up to 1/4″) in one application, which is then smoothed out by using a short nap roller moistened with a solvent and back rolled over the liner. This will flatten the liner and give it a smooth finish. It’s self-priming capabilities and tolerance for damp surfaces offers the installer many labor saving steps as well as less shut down time due to the fact that Sewer Shield® 100 has very low odor and no solvent. No special precautions are necessary to help contain any odor or solvent smell, often found in many other systems.

Sewer Shield® 100 is ideal for smoothing out pitted concrete walls, especially where a smooth, impervious surface is required. Further crack resistance due to concrete cracking can be enhanced by applying our Sewer Shield® Caulk 100 over cracks and followed by the application of Sewer Shield® 100.

Coverage:

Coverage is dependent on the texture of the substrate. The average rate per gallon is 12.8 square feet at 1/8″ thick.

Sewer Shield® 100 is available in the following setting times:

Sewer Shield® 100 for normal ambient temperature.
Sewer Shield® FS (fast set) for fast setting times at ambient temperatures.
Sewer Shield® XFS (extra fast set) for extra fast setting times at ambient temperatures.
Sewer Shield® CS (cold set) for temperatures down to 35°F.

Colors:

Sewer Shield® 100 is supplied in the following colors: Gray, Beige, and White. Special colors are available upon request.

Packaging and Mixing:

Sewer Shield® 100 is supplied in either a pre-measured one-gallon pack or as a standard three-gallon pack. Pour the contents of Part B into Part A and mix thoroughly with either a low speed drill (700 rpm) or a bucket mixer to a uniform consistency for approximately one minute, then add the pre-measured bag of Sewer Fill and mix again, making sure the sides and bottom are scraped. If a mixing paddle is too small, it will not give a uniform mix and an incomplete cure will result together with wet spots. Over mixing with a high-speed drill will shorten the pot life as well as introduce excess air into the mix.

Priming:

Sewer Shield® 100 is self-priming on new and existing concrete. However, if Sewer Shield® is to be applied over “green concrete,” then our Corro-Cure (a slow setting primer) must be used within 24 hours from pour, after which Sewer Shield® can be applied.

New and existing concrete exposed to full sun must have a coat of Sewer Shield® primer to stop out-gassing which creates bubbles in the finish coat.

Directions For Use:

All areas to be patched shall be clean and free of oil, grease, dirt, deteriorated concrete and all contaminates. Undercut the edges of the area to be patched to accommodate the repair. C-120 Cement used to repair vehicular traffic bearing areas should be placed a minimum of 1.5″ in depth. Clean and prime any exposed steel and reinforcing. Abrade or acid etch slick surfaces to ensure proper bond. When the temperature is above 40° F, pre-wet the prepared area with potable water before applying C-120. Any excess water should be blown or swept away to prevent dilution of the material.

C-120 Cement will require 3.25 to 3.5 quarts of potable water per 50 pound bag to achieve the proper mix consistency. Add the measured amount of C-120 to the proper amount of clean water and mix to a stiff putty like consistency for no more than four minutes. Mix small quantities of C-120 in a clean container with a hand trowel or in a wheelbarrow with a mud hoe. Use a rotary mixer with rubber tip blades for mixing larger quantities, up to 90 lbs. In deep areas over 2″, C-120 may be extended with up to 25 pounds of clean, washed gravel per 50 pound bag for filler. Do not mix more material than can be placed in five minutes. Do not re-temper with additional water.

Place C-120 Cement immediately after mixing. Force C-120 firmly into the area to be patched by hand or with a trowel and mold to the desired shape. Compact thoroughly to ensure bond. After initial set, finish C-120 with a steel trowel until smooth and level with the surrounding surface. Do not overwork the material. Cure C-120 Cement with damp cure method if any surface treatment will be used. Curing is mandatory especially in hot weather, direct sunlight and for thin patches.

Cautions:

Mix C-120 no more than four minutes. Do not mix more material than can be placed in five minutes. Use only potable water for mixing. Do not over water. Excess water does not improve workability. Do not re-temper. Clean mixing equipment between batches. Do not apply to frozen or frost filled surfaces. Do not apply during freezing weather. Contains cement, avoid inhalation of dust. Wear gloves during the mixing and placement of material.
