EpiMax 237 Penetrating Epoxy Primer Sealer
EpiMax 237 Penetrating Epoxy Primer Sealer is a two-component penetrating epoxy primer sealer designed for rapid and efficient impregnation of concrete. Its extremely low viscosity and low surface tension allow it to penetrate concrete and provide a stable foundation layer for subsequent concrete protection systems.
EpiMax 237 is designed for porous and partially deteriorated concrete where improving the condition of the surface and establishing a suitable foundation for subsequent coatings is required. It can also provide an economical dust-suppressing layer for weak, dusting concrete floors.
The penetrating epoxy primer can be applied by roller or airless spray and provides a fast-drying solution for applications including epoxy coating preparation, deteriorated substrates, car parks and dust-proofing slabs.
EpiMax 237 is also available as EpiMax 237WB, a water-based, hazmat-free version.

- Combine EpiMax 237 Part A with EpiMax 237 Part B.
- Power mix thoroughly.
- Apply by roller or airless spray.
- Apply at approximately 7–10 m²/L.
Mixing Instructions
- Combine 1 part EpiMax 237 Part A with 1 part EpiMax 237 Part B.
- Use a slow-speed mechanical mixer at approximately 400 rpm.
- Power mix thoroughly to achieve a properly mixed product.
- Allow the mixed product to stand for the stated induction period of 15–30 minutes at 25°C before application.
- Use the mixed material within its 3-hour work time per pack at 25°C.
Concrete Surface Preparation
- Concrete should be at least 28 days old.
- Ensure the foundation is clean, dry and free of additives, curing agents, oils and other contaminants.
- Prepare the sub-floor by professional grinding or captive blast cleaning as applicable.
- Preparation should expose firmly adhered aggregate.
- Allow the surface to dry if it is wet.
- Always confirm that preparation is adequate before application.
