Low temperature and high humidity will adversely affect application, drying and performance of any coating.
Surface Preparation
Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry and free from grease, oil and any other contaminates.
Bare steel should be free from dust, rust and scale. Blast cleaning to SA 2½ is recommended.
If blast cleaning is impractical, mechanical cleaning should be employed as hand cleaning does not clean the steel to the required degree.
Any oil or grease should be removed with Coo-Var Degreaser before de-rusting.
Where blast cleaning is carried out after assembly, special attention must be paid to edges, corners, nuts, bolts, welds etc.
Welds should, if necessary be ground and all weld spatter, slag etc. must be removed.
Preceeding Coat
Can be applied directly to prepared iron or steel, for greater protection prime with Teamac Zinc Phoshate Primer.
Subsequent Coat
Teamac Duracote Anticorrosive Red Oxide or other suitable topcoat.
Mixing
Mix well before use.
Application Conditions
As dictated by normal good painting practice.
Care must be taken during application that the temperature is above the dew point to avoid any contamination.
In confined spaces, provide adequate ventilation during application and drying.

So I have applied one coat to side of narrowboat, scabbled down to steel then sanded to bare metal. The data sheet says it can be reapplied coat on coat, with the weather as poor as it is this year I’m waiting to apply second coat. Does it need to keyed prior to another coat or can it just be over coated on itself ?. And can I just key it each year and apply another coat as and when required?. Thank you
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
This product can be applied coat on coat.
However, if the previous coat has fully cured, which takes around 5 days at 20 Degrees ░, you'll need to abrade the existing coating, which will ensure the subsequent coat can adhere successfully.

Question:
As daft as this may sound, is this product aquatic friendly? I need something to paint a galvanised roof of my koi pond. If this isn’t suitable, can you recommend a product that is please?
Teamac Duracote Red Oxide Paint can be applied directly to prepared iron or steel, a minimum of 2 coats are recommended when leaving as a finish. Alternatively one coat can be applied if another suitable topcoat is being applied subsequently. For greater protection prime first with Teamac Zinc Phosphate Primer.

Question:
Can this paint be used on wood please? Barry

Teamac Duracote Red Oxide Paint is not designed for application to wood but could be applied if necessary. We would however recommend the use of Teamac Metalastic Metal Protective Paint Colours instead where possible.
