• Superior immersion resistance
• Excellent abrasion resistance and toughness
• Well-suited for hydrocarbon exposures
• Formulated for use in a large variety of facilities including waste water, chemical and fuel storage, wet-gas pipelines, rail cars, barges and ship tanks
• Bis A free
• Dry temperature resistant up to 121°C (continuous) and 149°C (non-continuous)
• Cures down to 2°C

Product Specification

Drying Times

• These times are based on a 125-175 microns dry film thickness and adequate ventilation for the release of solvents for proper cure
• Higher film thickness, insufficient ventilation or cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could result in solvent entrapment, delamination between coats 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
• If the maximum recoat time is exceeded, the surface must be abraded prior to the application of additional coats
• Note: It is recommended to cure above 16°C for aggressive service

• The above curing schedule may be used to force cure the coating system
• Allow the freshly applied coating to air dry for 4 hours prior to elevating temperature
• Elevate temperature no more than 15°C every 30 minutes
• Force curing at temperatures approaching 88°C can result in a very slight colour change to the Plasite 9060 LT

Surface Preparation

Application Methods

Application Conditions

• This product simply requires the substrate temperature to be above the dew point
• Condensation due to substrate temperatures below the dew point can cause flash rusting on prepared steel and interfere with proper adhesion to the substrate
• Special application techniques may be required above or below normal application conditions

Health and Safety

Clean Up

• Use Thinner 2 or Acetone
• In case of spillage, absorb and dispose of in accordance with local applicable regulations

Safety

• Observe the precautionary notices on the container label, and read the safety data sheet before use
• Employ normal workmanlike safety precautions

Ventilation

• When used 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

Caution

• This product contains flammable solvents
• Keep away from sparks and open flames
• All electrical equipment and installations should be made and grounded in accordance with regulations
• In areas where explosion hazards exist, workers should be required to use non-ferrous tools and wear conductive and non-sparking shoes
