DESCRIPTION
The FlexPoxy system is a uniquely versatile elastomeric hybrid epoxy and waterproofing membrane. It is a clear, two component, low odor, 100% solids material specially engineered to stay flexible and tough, with good bridging capacity for horizontal movement of up to 1/8" without fracturing the FlexPoxy material.

TYPICAL USES
- Mechanical Rooms
- Slabs-On-Deck
- Parking Garages
- Pedestrian Decks
- Locker/Shower Rooms PACKAGING
- 5 gallon white pail - Resin
- 5 gallon black pail - Hardener
- 1 gallon white pail - Resinu 1 gallon black pail - Hardener
- 50 gallon drum*Note: Although testing is critical, it is not a guarantee against future problems. This is especially true if there is no vapor barrier or the vapor barrier is not functioning properly and/or you suspect you may have concrete contamination from oils, chemical spills or excessive salts.CHECK THE TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY: Floor temperature and materials should be between 60°F and 90°F. Humidity must be less than 95%. DO NOT coat unless floor temperature is more than five degrees over the dew point.
APPLICATION RANGE
A gallon of ProREZ FlexPoxy will cover in the following manner, with a *standard spread rate: 20-30 mils or 53-80 s.f. per gallon. *Application of body coat is variable in thickness depending upon condition of substrate and type of system.
SURFACE PREPARATION
This product requires preparation in order to perform as expected. Substrate must be mechanically profiled (ASTM 4259-83), clean, sound, and dry.
JOINT GUIDELINES
Depending on preference, joints may or may not be filled. If the joints are filled, nonmoving joints, i.e. contraction or control joints can be treated by using ProPoxy with ProThickener, or by using ProMender HF.
Note: Coating applied over filled joints may crack if there is significant concrete movement.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Application Equipment:
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) & clothing per SDS (Safety Data Sheet)
- Jiffy® Mixer Blade (ES Model)
- Clean Mixing Container
- Low Speed /High Torque Power Drill
- Shed-Resistant Roller Cover- 3/8" Nap
- Application Squeegee
STORAGE
Materials should be stored indoors between 60°F and 90°F.
SHELF LIFE
One (1) year from date of manufacture.
LIMITATIONS
This product is best suited for application in temperatures between 60°F and 90°F. FlexPoxy is not designed to be applied as a finish or wear coat. It is light sensitive to ambering over time, and requires a UV stable topcoat. Do not apply under ProKrete.

PRODUCTS GUIDE
1. FlexPoxy Resin is a versatile 1:1 elastomeric hybrid epoxy designed with exceptional built-in resiliency and functionality. With its low viscosity, it can be easily applied when combined with FlexPoxy Hardener.
2. FlexPoxy Hardener allows for moderate working and cure time when combined with FlexPoxy Resin.
PRELIMINARY FLOOR INSPECTIONS
CHECK THE CONCRETE: Concrete must be structurally sound and free of curing membrane, paint or other sealer. If you suspect that the concrete has been previously sealed, call ProREZ technical support for further instructions.
CHECK FOR MOISTURE: Concrete must be dry before application of this floor coating material. Concrete moisture testing must occur. Calcium chloride testing or in-situ relative humidity testing is recommended. Test methods can be purchased at www.astm.org, see ASTM F1869-11 or F2170-11, respectively or follow manufacturer’s instructions. Readings must be below 3lbs/1,000s.f./24hrs (ASTM F1869-11) or 75% internal relative humidity (F2170-11).

Version 5.01.19.25 FlexPoxy
Mix ratio for FlexPoxy is 1 part Resin to 1 part Hardener by volume. 8-16 oz. of ProColor Universal Colorant is recommended per gallon of material. (See product label.) When field pigmenting, it should be added and mixed in homogenously to the resin prior to adding the hardener. When combining, be sure to add the hardener into the clean mixing container first. Then add the resin (clear or pigmented) scraping out the container. Always pour into the center of the mixing container. Mix the components thoroughly for 1-2 minutes with a Jiffler ES style mix blade. Mix only enough material at one time that can be applied without exceeding the pot life.
| Allow floor coating to cure at least one week before cleaning by mechanical means (e.g., sweeper, scrubber, disc machine). |
CARE
Proper maintenance will increase the service life and help maintain the appearance of your new ProREZ floor coating system. This product is considered to be a low maintenance coating system, however, certain textures and service environments require specific procedures. SEE “CLEANING GUIDELINES” for more information.
CAUTION
Avoid scratching or gouging the surface. All floor coatings will scratch if heavy or sharp objects are dragged across the surface.Do not drop heavy or pointed items on the
floor as this may cause chipping or concrete pop-outs in the case of a weak substrate cap.Rubber tires can permanently stain the
floor coating from plasticizer migration. In warehouse & industrial settings, the use of non-marking tires is highly recommended to prevent discoloration. Rubber burns from quick stops and starts can heat the coating to its softening temperature, causing permanent marking.
