TERRAZZCO Epoxy Resin
  • MMS 950 is required when relative humidity (RH) within the concrete substrate exceeds 75% when tested with in-situ probes.  MMS 950 should be applied to cracks prior to those cracks being filled with rigid epoxy.

 

  • Floor Aid Flexible Membrane 528 should be used to treat all cracks, control joints & cold pour joints in the substrate. (Do not fill cracks with Flexible Membrane 528.  Rigid epoxy such as  Groutless EZPour Epoxy 158 or Leveling Fill Epoxy 162 should be used)

 

  • Leveling Fill Epoxy 162 may be required to fill any cracks, voids and/or if leveling is needed.
