5. Methodology

5.1 Sandblast or Grit Blast the Surface:

In the case of concrete, the Portland cement lattice should be removed to expose stone. Several sanding methods are acceptable; however,
grit blasting and sandblasting are preferred. When lining a concrete structure, the concrete should be at least 28 days old and completely
dry. Sandblast as you would a metal surface. After blasting, fill any cracks, pits, etc., with an initiated fumed silica-filled resin putty, allow
to cure, and sand smooth. After all sanding is complete; thoroughly vacuum the surface to remove all dust and dirt.

5.1 Prime the Surface:

The surface temperature of the equipment to be relined should not exceed 40 °C (100 °F). Immediately after the dust has been removed,
apply 0.05–0.08 mm (2–3 mil) of initiated Derakane™ 8084 resin with a brush or roller to provide an anchor for the lining.
The primer coat prevents surface corrosion prior to the application of the laminating resin and also provides a bonding surface for the
laminating resin. The primer coat should be allowed to cure under ambient conditions, 15–38 °C (60–100 °F), to a tack-free state before
applying the laminating resin. Once the primer coat is dry to the touch, check the surface with a test patch as explained below:
Secondary Bonding
Secondary bonding can be a concern in many FRP applications. This is particularly true with Derakane™ 470 resin because of its high
degree of reactivity.

Page 6 of 8
Derakane™ Signia™ resins are formulated for excellent secondary bonding, minimizing the need for surface
preparation such as sanding or grinding. To achieve a good secondary bond with Derakane™ and Derakane™ Momentum™ resins, it is
necessary to prepare the surface properly.

The entire surface must be sanded uniformly, giving at least a 0.05 mm–0.08 mm (2–3 mil) anchor pattern. This can be achieved by
grinding the surface with a #16 or #24 sanding disc. When using the sanding disc, check the pad periodically to make sure there is no
buildup of glass fiber and resin. If buildup occurs, it will impair proper sanding and the consequent formation of a good secondary bond.

After you have properly prepared the surface, you must keep it clean and dry until you can start laminating. Dust, moisture or traces of oil
that can come in contact with the surface may act as a mold release or inhibit the cure and prevent a good secondary bond. Laminating
should be done within a couple of hours of the surface preparation.

The addition of the surfactant BYK A515 at 0.1 wt% to Derakane™ or Derakane™ Momentum™ resins can improve their adhesion to
primary laminates. The surfactant properties of the BYK A515 reduce the surface tension of epoxy vinyl ester resins, thus allowing the
resins to flow more easily into laminate surface cavities. For structural walls on spas and hot tubs, the use of BYK A515 at a level of 0.2 wt
% in Derakane™ resin laminates have been shown to improve the resin’s adhesion to the smooth backing of polyacrylic sheets.

Note: Solvent wiping of a primary surface before secondary laminating starts is not necessary. In fact, it can cause poor secondary bond
formation. A solvent wipe is usually done to remove the dust accumulated during sanding. If you use a rag wetted with solvent to wipe off
the primary surface, it is likely to have picked up contaminants that might act as a mold release and prevent a good secondary bond.
Thorough dusting with a dry cloth is sufficient.

If the lining application is delayed, cover the primed surface to protect it from contamination. If the delay is longer than three days and the
primer coat is allowed to develop a hard cure, Sand the surface lightly and apply another primer coat prior to applying the laminating resin.

5.2 Apply Chopped Strand Mat:

Cut two layers of 450 g/m2 (1½ oz/ft2) chopped strand mat and two layers of surfacing veil so that the full liner thickness can be applied in
one lay-up, making allowance for staggered joints with at least a 5 cm (2 in) overlap. Apply initiated Derakane™ resin to the primed
surface with a brush or roller, then lay a chopped strand mat over the resin and roll with a serrated roller until all air bubbles have been
Removed. Repeat until you have applied two bubble free layers of chopped strand mat.

5.3 Apply Surfacing Veil:

Using the same sequence of operations, apply two layers of surfacing veil with Derakane™ resin. The lining should now be at least 3 mm
(⅛ in) thick.

Note: If you allow any layer of mat or surfacing veil to cure overnight, you must wipe it with clean, dry rags to remove any contaminants before you apply
the next layer. If a layer or an overlap is allowed to cure for more than 72 hours at 20 °C (70 °F), it must be etched by grinding or sandblasting before the
next layer can be applied. When using Derakane™ Signia™resins, grinding may not be needed.

5.4 Inspect and Repair the Lining:

Before top coating, inspect the lining for defects such as voids, dry glass or exposed fibers. A 20,000-volt spark tester is an effective tool
for this inspection. Remove defects by grinding to the bare substrate. Then cover the low area with two layers of chopped strand mat and
two layers of synthetic veil, applied with Derakane™ resin. The glass should overlap the surrounding area by at least 5 cm (2 in). Build up
the sanded defect area to the original laminate thickness.

5.5 Apply Topcoat:

Once the laminate has passed inspection, apply a resin/wax topcoat to prevent air inhibition. When using Derakane ™ Signia™ resins, a resin/wax topcoat
may not be needed. See Wax Topcoats in Section 3 of this guide.
