Ceilcote 68 Lining is an epoxy coating. A reinforced lining for the protection of tanks, trenches and pits, particularly suitable for thickeners, clarifiers and other cracked concrete exposed to chemicals. A glass fibre reinforced epoxy lining system designed to protect concrete and carbon steel surfaces from chemical attack in immersion environments. When such problems occur, the surface must be covered to avoid sunlight exposure and/or application carried out in the cooler evening or night, so that air escape from the concrete does not occur during initial curing.

All surfaces to be painted must be clean, dry and free of contaminants. Before painting, all surfaces must be assessed and prepared in accordance with ISO 8504:2000.
Oil and grease removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1.
Steel substrate when used in immersion or wet environments or high-temperature environments, the product shall be applied to surfaces blast cleaned to Sa3 (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC SP5 or NACE #1. When used in dry environments, shall be applied to surfaces blast cleaned to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC SP10 or NACE #2. Surface roughness minimum 75 µm (3 mil). The substrate must be applied with a 50–125 µm (2–5 mil) wet film of Ceilcote 680M.
Prior to application of Ceilcote 68 Lining on concrete substrates, the concrete surface shall be fully cured. The concrete surface shall be dry and tested by the plastic sheet method (ASTM D4263). All surfaces to be coated shall be clean, dry and free from accelerators, release agents, grease, oil, old coatings and loose or spalling concrete. All concrete surfaces to be coated must also be abrasive blast cleaned to obtain a roughened surface and remove laitance. Surface tensile strength (ASTM 4541) minimum 2 MPa (300 psi). For further information refer to the concrete surface preparation specification. The substrate must be applied with a 50–125 µm (2–5 mil) wet film of Ceilcote 680M.
| Mixing | Ceilcote 68 Lining must be mixed and applied in accordance with the detailed application instructions of the subsequent system. |

The resin component is supplied as two cans per unit. Normally the whole unit is mixed. Once mixed, it shall be used within the specified pot life. (1) Shake Component A, then pour the whole cans of Component A and Component B together and mix thoroughly with a power stirrer. (2) Component C, the powder component, shall be added slowly while Components A and B are being stirred. For specific quantity requirements, refer to the product data section.

Prior to use of the relevant Ceilcote system, refer to the detailed Application Instructions. Application of Ceilcote 68 Lining requires that the application company's personnel have completed full application training. It is strongly recommended that both applicators and application supervisors be professionals trained in the correct product.
Before work begins, International Paint provides a precise system for dry film thickness and number of coats.
The surface temperature must be at least 3 °C (5 °F) above the dew point. Ensure adequate ventilation during application and curing. Dehumidification, air conditioning and/or heating equipment may be necessary to control the environment.
At all stages of application, the surface, air and paint temperatures must be between 10 °C (50 °F) and 43 °C (110 °F).
When applying outdoors or in sunlight, “bubbling” may occur as the surface temperature rises due to sunlight or ambient temperature. This can cause bubbles or pinholes in the applied flooring, lining or coating. When this occurs, shade the surface from sunlight, and/or apply in the cooler evening or at night, so that air does not escape from the concrete during initial cure. For more detailed advice, consult the International Paint Protective Coatings division.
Ceilcote 68 Lining maximum continuous dry temperature is 93 °C. Maximum continuous immersion temperature resistance of the product is 71 °C (160 °F) for concrete and 60 °C (140 °F) for steel.
Application1. Trowel apply one coat of 1000–2000 µm (40–80 mil) base coat (target 1500 µm, 60 mil).2. Press the reinforcement into the base coat, leaving no wrinkles or voids, wet the reinforcement with resin until the reinforcement becomes transparent.3. After curing apply the topcoat.4. Allow the topcoat to cure.
Various Ceilcote products can be selected as topcoat; specifically depending on the target service environment. For selection of specific topcoat products consult the International Ceilcote representative.
Note: VOC values are typical and for guidance only. They may vary with colour and general production tolerances.
Although the low-molecular-weight reactive additive becomes part of the film when cured under normal ambient conditions, analysis by EPA Method 24 shows that it also affects the VOC value.
Ceilcote 68 Lining shall always be applied to a correctly prepared primer surface. Suitable primers are as follows:
| Ceilcote 680 Primer | Ceilcote 680MCeilcote 690Typical topcoats are: |
|---|---|
| Ceilcote 600 Flakeline | Ceilcote 600HB Flakeline |
| Ceilcote 662 Flakeline | Ceilcote 664 Ceilgard |
