Fiberlock LAG KOTE II Encapsulant Coating (5-Gal)
Lag-Kote II is a 100% acrylic, high-solids encasement/encapsulation coating, specifically formulated for application over a variety of asbestos containing materials. Tested and EPA accepted at Battelle Laboratories of Columbus, Ohio, under EPA Contract #68-03-2552-T2005, Lag-Kote was found to be an acceptable encapsulant. Lag-Kote was designed to encase asbestos-containing spray-on fireproofing, transite, and thermal insulation. Lag-Kote's viscous formulation minimizes dripping, clean-up and product waste. Lag-Kote provides a smooth, washable, aesthetically superior finish that will provide years of lasting protection. Lag-Kote has excellent resistance to alkalis and can be applied directly over galvanized metal, ferrous metal, masonry or other sound surfaces. UV inhibitors make Lag-Kote suitable for encasement of exterior asbestos containing materials including transite. Lag-Kote is water-base and non-toxic.
DESCRIPTION
Together, Lag Kloth and Lag Kote II form an asbestos encapsulation system. Lag-Kote II is a thick bridging encapsulant/sealant specifically formulated for application over interior friable Asbestos Containing Material (ACM). It is ideally suited to encapsulate interior pipe lagging, boiler jackets, breeching and other components of heating and ventilation systems. If those are in disrepair, they must first be coverd with Lag Kloth. Its thick body minimizes dripping, cleanup and product waste while providing a smooth, washable, aesthetically superior finish that will provide years of protection. Lag-Kote II is a flexible coating that can be applied over galvanized metal, wood, masonry or other sound surfaces to prevent the release of harmful asbestos fibers.
• SURFACE REPAIRS & CLEANING: Lagging that is torn, ruptured or delaminated should be repaired with patching cement or Lag Kloth Water-Activated Repair Cloth. Lag Kloth should be dipped in water and applied to the asbestos containing material. Upon completion of repairs, prepare the surface for the application of Lag-Kote II. Thoroughly remove all dust and dirt that has accumulated on lagging or covering, use a vacuum with a HEPA filter specifically designed to capture hazardous dust and waste or wipe surfaces with a damp cloth. Do not air clean surfaces; this could increase asbestos exposure.
• MIXING: Lag-Kote II may be diluted by adding up to 10% water. Prior to application, stir Lag-Kote II thoroughly to achieve a uniform consistency. Lag Kote II can be tinted to pastel colors.
• PRODUCT APPLICATION: Select a brush, roller or painter’s mitt for convenient application to the ACM. Apply 1-2 coats of Lag-Kote II to the desired film thickness. Minimum film thickness may vary with desired results and type of application.
