Mixing: |
Thoroughly mix part A and B separately, then add part B slowly to the part A and mix completely The coating should stand approximately 30 minutes after the curing agent has been thoroughly mixed in |
Thinning: |
PLASITE Thinner 71 is recommended for normal application temperatures and conditions PLASITE Thinner 19 is recommended for above normal application temperatures and where tank design requires a slower evaporating thinner to help control overspray. The amounts of thinner required will vary depending on air and surface temperatures and application equipment Normal application temperatures and conditions will require the addition of approximately 10% by volume with approximately 5% additional thinner added for each 3°C of increased temperature Airless spray equipment and above normal temperatures require additional thinning It is recommended that the thinner included on each order amount to approximately 20% of the coating order |
Ratio: | 4:1 A:B |
Pot Life: | Approximately 8 to 10 hours at 6°C |
Conventional Spray: |
Pressure pot equipped with dual regulators, 3/8” I.D. minimum material hose, .070” I.D. fluid tip and appropriate air cap Adjust air pressure to approximately 50 psi at the gun and provide 10-20 lbs. of pot pressure |
Airless Spray: |
Apply a “mist” bonding pass Allow to dry approximately one minute but not long enough to allow film to completely dry. Apply crisscross multi-passes, moving gun at fairly rapid rate, maintaining a wet appearing film Fast multi-passes may be applied until you have a wet film thickness of approximately 150-200 µ (6-8 mil). Repeat this procedure for the second coat to obtain an 200-300 µ (8-12 mil) DFT |
Brush: |
Recommended for small areas only. Use medium bristle brush Not recommended for tank lining applications except when striping welds Avoid excessive re-brushing for best results |
Roller: |
Not recommended for tank lining applications except when striping welds Use a short-nap synthetic roller with phenolic core |
