ABC provides maximum flexibility for specific asbestos abatement needs, including lockdown, removal, penetrating encapsulation and bridging encapsulation, and is an effective tool for controlling the documented health hazard of exposure to asbestos fibers found in soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 27px; outline: 0px; border: 0px currentColor; color: #505050; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; word-spacing: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: normal; box-sizing: border-box; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: #ffffff; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\"\u003eABC was tested for the EPA by Battelle Laboratories and found to meet the requirements for the effective encapsulation and removal of ACM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col style=\"margin: 0px 0px 30px 30px; padding: 0px; outline: 0px; border: 0px currentColor; color: #505050; text-transform: none; text-indent: 0px; letter-spacing: normal; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; word-spacing: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; list-style-position: outside; list-style-image: none; white-space: normal; box-sizing: border-box; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: #ffffff; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: 0px; border: 0px currentColor; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eEncapsulates fireproofing and soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: 0px; border: 0px currentColor; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eClass A fire rated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: 0px; border: 0px currentColor; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eExceeds EPA standards for encapsulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; outline: 0px; border: 0px currentColor; font-family: inherit; font-size: 14px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: border-box;\"\u003eAvailable in off-white, clear and green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"yikes-custom-woo-tab-title yikes-custom-woo-tab-title-features\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncapsulates fireproofing and soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass A fire rated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExceeds EPA standards for encapsulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in off-white, clear and green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"yikes-custom-woo-tab-title yikes-custom-woo-tab-title-how-to-use\"\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSURFACE PREPARATION\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrior to application it is important to determine if the existing asbestos matrix is well adhered to the substrate. Correct any surface defects and clean all surfaces thoroughly. Be careful not to agitate asbestos fibers during preparation; this could increase asbestos exposure.

Using the proper spray equipment settings listed, apply ABC to the ACM until saturated. Multiple passes may be required, allowing time between passes for dissipation of the solution into the matrix. Full saturation is achieved when the ACM will not absorb any more of the encapsulant into the matrix. Coverage, depending on thickness and porosity of the material, can vary between 50 – 75 sq. ft.\/gal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBRIDGING AGENT\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA qualified asbestos professional should determine the necessary dry film thick ness for individual abatement projects. The necessary dry film thickness of a bridging encapsulant for asbestos containing materials (ACM) will vary from project to project as ACM can have a wide range of characteristics, including density, porosity, and surface profile. In the EPA’s Guidance for Controlling Asbestos-Containing Materials in Buildings (EPA 560 \/ 5-84024, June 1985), the primary instruction regarding dry film thickness states that when encapsulating ACM, the coating is to be applied “considerably thicker than recommended for painting. Coverage should be no more than 100 sq. ft. per gallon and should create a continuous, unbroken coating” (Section 5.1.3, page 5-8). For bridging applications, apply ABC at full strength with an airless sprayer in accordance with the settings listed below. Typical bridging applications are applied at a coverage rate of 75-100 sq. ft.\/gallon, which yields a dry film thickness between 6-10 mils on hard, cementitious ACM.

Mix 4 parts water to 1 part ABC and apply to ACM. ABC will facilitate removal by penetrating into the ACM keeping it moist and sticky. After the ACM has been removed, apply 1 part ABC diluted with 1 part water to seal residual fibers left on substrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSOIL ENCAPSULATION INSTRUCTIONS PENETRANT\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor encapsulation of soil contaminated with asbestos, mix one part ABC with one part water. Apply as a penetrating encapsulant to increase the dimensional stability of the soil, while reducing its porosity.  For heavy clay or hard packed soils, the dilution rate may need to be increased to 2 parts water to one part ABC to improve penetration.  Porous soils, such as those with high sand or gravel content, may require more product per square foot, or multiple applications of penetrating encapsulant solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBRIDGING AGENT\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply ABC full strength as a bridging encapsulant.  Dry film thickness and application rate should be determined by a qualified asbestos professional as appropriate to the project site and goals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCOVERAGE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoverage depends on thickness and porosity of the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePenetrant: 50-75 ft\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e per gallon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePenetrant (Soil): 30-35 ft\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e per gallon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridging Agent: 75-100 ft\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e per gallon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridging Agent (Soil): 75-100 ft\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e per gallon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDRYING TIME\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e@ 70°F 50% R.H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrying time will vary based on thickness and porosity of the ACM being encapsulated.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTo Touch – 1-2 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCLEANUP\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTools and drippings should be cleaned with warm soapy water before coating dries.
