Technical Data Sheet (TDS)

CCI-600 Aria Pro

Epoxy Coating Base Coat

Special features

  • Special formulation for thicker coats
  • Can be tinted and/or flaked

Product Description
STAUF CCI-600 is a two-component, 100% solid epoxy resin base coat for professional flooring installation over indoor floors requiring industrial-grade coatings. CCI-600 can be mixed and modified with tints for coloring, and flakes for decorative flooring. Once cured, floor coating is safely cleaned by using any number of methods including high pressure, ammonia, bleach, solvents, and steam washing.
Pre-Installation Checklist
A successful installation requires proper preparation of the subfloor. Read and understand all applicable guidelines and Technical Data Sheets before installation.
Sub Floor Examination
Prior to installation, the subfloor must be checked according to applicable installation guidelines. It must be solid, sound, clean, porous, free of chaps, anti-adherents, and resistant to pressure and tension. Confirm sufficient porosity by performing a water drop test according to ASTM F3191-16. Check for missing or compromised vapor barriers and hydrostatic pressure by carrying out RH or CaCl moisture tests following ASTM standards F1869-16 or F2170-19. Results of 99% RH or 25# CaCl could indicate a higher moisture content in the slab than what tests can measure, and there might be hydrostatic pressure and/or a compromised or missing vapor barrier.
Sub Floor Preparation
The subfloor's condition will determine which type of mechanical treatment is required (e.g., wire brushing, sanding, grinding, or shot blasting). Dust, paint, curing compounds, sealers, residual adhesives, or other surface contaminants MUST be removed, and a porous surface must be achieved by suitable means. The installer can only determine the extent of subfloor preparation at the site. Clean the surface with an industrial vacuum cleaner and tack the floor with a damp microfiber mop before application. Do not use sweeping compounds unless water-based, as most others contain oil or wax, which will act as an anti-adherent and prevent primers, sealers, leveling compounds, coatings, and/or adhesives from bonding to the concrete. Cracks and gaps must be treated before application of primers, sealers, leveling compounds, coatings, and/or adhesives (see Technical Information #19 @ www.staufusa.com).
Mixing of Components
The lid contains a hardener. Pierce all the way through the plastic disc in the center of the lid and the bottom of the lid using a long screwdriver or similar tool. Let the hardener flow into the lower part of the bucket for one minute. All of the hardener must drain into the pail before mixing Parts A&B. Open the ring, remove the lid, and mix both components with a mixing paddle for at least 3 minutes. Use an electric drill with less than 300 rpm until an even color is reached. Avoid air entrapment by mixing slowly and using an appropriate mixing paddle. Make sure to mix along the wall and bottom of the container as well. The temperature of both components should be at least 50°F before mixing.
Installation Procedure
Mix pail according to mixing instructions. Empty the pail onto the floor immediately after mixing to prevent the product from heating up and drying in the pail. Apply coating undiluted with an approved applicator. Make sure the coating is spread evenly and up to the perimeters. The spread rate is critical for a successful installation. Do not exceed the minimum or maximum coverage.
Limitations
When using other than STAUF products in conjunction with STAUF primers, sealers, leveling compounds, or adhesives, STAUF denies any and all responsibility for any ensuing problems and/or damages without prior written authorization from STAUF.
Do not dilute primer/sealer or mix with other products.
In case of an accident, injury, spill, or exposure, see SDS for information. Consult the Technical Data Sheet at www.staufusa.com for updated information.
Subfloor temperatures between 32-50°F (0-10°C) will dramatically increase drying time up to 24 hours. Never install the product when subfloor temperature is below freezing or if condensation could occur on the subfloor within 24 hours after application.
Sealer will not prevent moisture damage from hydrostatic pressure, missing or compromised vapor barriers, underground springs, damaged water pipes, sinks, icemakers, faulty plumbing, flooding, etc.
