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 CooVar Universal 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.
Application Conditions
As dictated by normal good painting practice. In confined spaces, provide adequate ventilation during application and drying.
Remarks
The dry film only fully cures after heating, slowly, to above 220°C for 20 to 30 minutes. Unless fully cured the film remains thermoplastic and sensitive to some solvents. The film may be cured in-service, some fume and light smoke generation is assosiated with the initial cure.

Question:
Would this product be suitable for painting the glazed tiles surrounding my open fireplace? Thanks
Can I use Coo Var on heat resistant boarding surrounding a multi fuel stove? (approx 8" away from stove). Thank you
Answer:
Coo-Var Heat Resistant Satin Black Enamel MAY be suitable but it should be noted that it is heat resistant not fire resistant and we also assume it is not an open fire. Finally although it would appear dry, full properties are only obtained when heated above 220°C so some areas may never be fully cured if it the surfaces do not reach this temperature.

Question:
I have a dimplex "electric stove" heater i use at work, it has small grill on the front that is black and over time the heat passing thru it has worn the paint away. Would this paint work to cover that affected area? I don't want to start a fire by using incorrect paint to fix it.
Answer:
Coo-Var Heat Resistant Satin Black should be fine for this as the exposure temp is 600°C.

Question: Can this paint be used inside and outside of an oven door?
Answer:
Yes, but it must not be in direct contact with flames and not exceed 650°C.
Please also note: The dry film only fully cures after heating, slowly, to above 220°C for 20 to 30 minutes. Unless fully cured the film remains thermoplastic and sensitive to some solvents. The film may be cured in-service, some fume and light smoke generation is associated with the initial cure.

Question: Hi, can this be painted over an existing enamel finish? I'm looking to spruce up a wood-burning stove.
Thanks.
Answer:
Coo-Var Heat Resistant Satin Black can be applied over other enamels as long as they are also heat resistant. Clean and lightly abrade to provide a key before over coating.
