This document provides information on Nitoflor ET Slurry, a three component, epoxy-based flooring system that provides an anti-skid surface. It is a lightweight, durable coating suitable for foot bridges, helicopter decks, industrial areas and other applications. The thickness of the coating varies depending on the expected traffic density, from 3.0-3.5mm for light traffic to 4.0-5.0mm for heavy traffic. It offers advantages such as being lightweight, hardwearing, durable, chemically resistant, and providing a non-slip surface.

Precautions
Health & Safety instructions
Since some people are sensitive to epoxy resins and cleaning
solvents, the use of protective clothing, gloves, proprietary barrier creams and eye goggles is recommended. If contact with resins or solvents occur, the affected area shall be cleaned with resin removing creams followed by washing with soap and water. Washing the resin with solvent is not suggested. In the case of eye contact, it shall be washed thoroughly with clean water and medical advice shall be sought immediately.
Fire
Nitoflor Sol, solvent is flammable. Ensure adequate ventilation.
Use near naked flame is not suggested. Smoking is prohibited during application/ handling of the product.
