MASTERFILL 300

Semi-flexible epoxy joint sealant

DESCRIPTION SPECIFICATION
Masterfill 300 is a semi-flexible, 100% solids epoxy joint
sealant designed to protect stable internal joint edges and Part A Part B Mixed
to prevent spalling due to traffic impact in control and
relief joints in concrete floors. For tough slip or skid- Colour * Neutral Off White
resistant coatings, Masterfill 300 may be applied with a Mix Ratio (by vol) 1 1
broadcast of selected aggregate. Pot Life 25-30 min
Available in gunable, pourable and paste grades. *Colour pack must be added. Special colours available.
Add 1 x 0.6kg Mastertop X1 Colour Pack to Part A for a
RECOMMENDED FOR
10L kit.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Flexibility at low temperature with a lower brittle Priming
point than normal epoxies Priming is not required on dry surfaces. On wet or damp
Economical surfaces, prime with Concresive 2525.
Remains flexible
Easier to place and trim Application
Achieves seamless floor surfaces Joints: The mixed material should be applied by pouring
Easy proportioning or knifing into joints that have a backing rod placed as per
Available in selected colour range diagram below.
Provides essential support to joint edges Using paste grade and knifing flush will produce seamless
ramping or bridging across joints. When coating with

MIXING
Properties listed are typical and descriptive of the product,
and may be used as a guide for determining suitability for Mix only the amount of material that can be used before
particular applications. the expiration of the pot life. Add 1 x 0.6kg of Mastertop
X1 Colour Pack to Part A and blend until uniform. (Should
a deeper colour be required add 2 x 0.6kg of Mastertop
X1 Colour Packs in total). Add Part B to preblended Part
A and mix for a minimum of 3 minutes using an electric
drill-powered paint mixer. Carefully scrape the sides and
bottom of the container while mixing.
