Product Specification

Film Thickness Range And Coverage

Coverage: 17-22m²/L at 20 microns DFT depending on colour and gloss.

• HMG technical data sheets (see section above) indicate a dry film thickness that will be achieved when applying a particular wet film thickness.
• These values are a guide only and are not to be used as specifications
• Film thickness will vary depending on actual use and specification
• Great care should be taken to achieve the dft stated in the agreed specification and to avoid areas of excessively low or high thickness

Drying Times

Surface Preparation

• Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free from grease, oils, dust and other contamination prior to application
• High pressure wash to remove all loose debris and other contamination
• Thoroughly clean and degrease using suitable HMG Prep Clean 2802, HMG 2803 or HMG 2804
• Check all existing coatings are well adhered with all loose and failed material removed back to firm with all edges well feathered
• Read and follow the safety data sheet, product data sheet (see section above) and label instructions
• Rust/corrosion to be removed to Sa or St standards, remove to clean metallic appearance with little or no rust/corrosion present
• Areas where blast cleaning is not cost effective or practical, then the use of Ferrozinc is an alternative
• Though Ferrozinc is not an equivalent alternative to shot blasting, it does offer a far superior performance than conventional coatings applied to slightly rusted surfaces
• FERROZINC is used after simple wire brushing to remove surface rust, prior to application of primer
• Stir all paints thoroughly before use
• Always use the same batch number on the same job
• Check colour & sheen
• Filter the product immediately before use
• Reduce emissions and maintain quality by replacing tin lid after use

Application

Substrates

• HMG 2K Monothane is for application direct to most suitably prepared metals and many plastics
• Not suitable for coating over bitumen or chlorinated rubber coatings
• Suitability over existing coating should be trialled in small area prior to full application

Application Climate

• Substrate temperature should be 5⁰C or above for application and during cure, and a minimum of 3⁰C above the dew point
• Adequate dry air ventilation should be supplied during drying

Application Information

• Thinning should only take place after material is thoroughly mixed
• Application and use should always conform with the codes of practice described in BS 6150 and BS 5493

Application

• Apply HMG 2K Monothane evenly via Airless/Air-assisted, Pressure Pot, Compliant Spray. 1-2 full coats
• HMG 2K Monothane is a twin pack product and will require the mixing of the two parts prior to application, once
  mixed a chemical reaction will occur to allow the product to dry
• When using twin pack products it is important that pot life is observed
