These times are based on a 5.0 mil (125 micron) dry film thickness. Higher film thickness, insufficient ventilation or cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could result in solvent entrapment and premature failure
Excessive humidity or condensation on the surface during curing can interfere with the cure, can cause discolouration, and may result in a surface haze. Any haze or blush must be removed by water washing before recoating
Recoat intervals may vary from those listed above when using under intumescent fireproofing products
Consult Rawlins on Tech - 0113 2455450 (option 2) or [email protected] for recommended cure times before applying Carboline intumescent products
If the maximum recoat times have been exceeded, the surface must be abraded by sweep blasting or sanding prior to the application of additional coats
For force curing, contact Rawlins for specific requirements
Surface Preparation
General
Surfaces must be clean and dry
Employ adequate methods to remove dirt, dust, oil and all other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion of the coating in accordance with SSPC-SP 1 and follow the guidelines below
Steel
Immersion: NACE No. 2/SSPC-SP 10 with a 2.0-3.0 mil (50-75 microns) surface profile
Non-Immersion: NACE No. 3/SSPC-SP 6 with a 2.0-3.0 mil (50-75 microns) surface profile for maximum protection. SSPC-SP 2, SSPC-SP 3, NACE No. 4/SSPC-SP 7, NACE/SSPC WJ-1 to WJ-4, or SSPC-SP 14 are also acceptable methods. For alternate methods contact Rawlins
When using under fireproofing products, defer to the primer surface preparation requirements in the product data sheet of the fireproofing product.
Concrete
Concrete shall be designed, placed, cured, and prepared in accordance with NACE No. 6/SSPCSP 13, latest edition.
Abrade to remove all laitance, loose concrete, etc. and to create surface profile in accordance with ICRI CSP standards for the coating system
Stainless Steel
SSPC-SP 16: for immersion service create 1.5 to 3 mils (38 to 75 microns) anchor profile
Application Methods
Product Information
Mixing:
Mix separately, then combine and mix in the following proportions:
1 Gallon Kit = Part A: 0.8 Gallon; Part B: 0.2 Gallons
5 Gallon Kit = Part A: 4 Gallons: Part B: 1 Gallon
In case of spillage, absorb and dispose of in accordance with local applicable regulations
Safety
Read and follow all caution statements on this product data sheet and on the safety data sheet for this product
Employ normal workmanlike safety precautions
Ventilation
When used as a tank lining or in enclosed areas, thorough air circulation must be used during and after application until the coating is cured.
The ventilation system should be capable of preventing the solvent vapor concentration from reaching the lower explosion limit for the solvents used
In addition to ensuring proper ventilation, appropriate respirators must be used by all application personnel
User should test and monitor exposure levels to ensure all personnel are below guidelines. If not sure or if not able to monitor levels, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air respirator
Caution
This product contains flammable solvents
Keep away from sparks and open flames
