Rhino 1500 - Clear, Water-Based Epoxy Sealer
Rhino™ 1500 is a clear, two part, waterborne epoxy sealer that is easy to mix, easy to use, and provides superior results. It is applied over concrete and many other substrates by brush, roller or spray equipment.
Rhino 1500 dries quickly (60-90 minutes) and is typically applied as a standalone sealer.Rhino 1500 contains a unique “lacquer dry” (dust free) cure allowing it to be recoated quickly. It has a long working time (2 – 3 hours) which allows larger batches to be mixed. The material cleans up easily with soap and water from hands and tools.
Features & Benefits
• A cost-effective, stand alone concrete sealer and dust proofer
• Applied in 1 or 2 coats as needed
• Easy to mix, easy to use, low odor
• 4:1 mixture - 4 parts A (resin) to 1 part B (hardener) by volume
• Extended recoat window with itself (>48 hours)
Applications
• May be used as a light duty concrete sealer providing superior dust control and appearance
• Superior wood sealant - providing a perfect bond and preventing bubbles and "out-gassing"
• Can be applied directly to properly prepared metal substrates
• Used in one or two coat sealer applications

Mixing
Thorough and complete mixing is critical. A Jiffy mixer is recommended. Prior to mixing, gently stir each component separately to insure that the material is homogenous and uniform in consistency. Carefully proportion each component at the ratio of 4 parts A (resin) to 1 part B (hardener) by volume or, if using 5-gallon kits, pour all of Part B (hardener) into Part A (resin) and mix at 200 – 300 RPM for 3 – 5 minutes. No stripes or color variation should be visible in the mix.
IMPORTANT: After mixing, wait 10 – 15 minutes before application to allow for the required "induction" of material prior to application. Mix no more material than may be applied in 3 hours.
