PPG Dimetcote 9 (also known as Sigmazinc 9), is a two-component, moisture-curing zinc (ethyl) silicate coating for structural steel that can withstand substrate temperatures from –90°C (–130°F) up to 400°C (750°F), with good resistance to impact and abrasion.
PPG Dimetcote 9 (also known as Sigmazinc 9) is a two-component, moisture-curing zinc (ethyl) silicate coating for structural steel. Under normal atmospheric conditions, Dimetcote 9 can withstand substrate temperatures from –90°C (–130°F) up to 400°C (750°F). As an anti-corrosive primer for structural steel, Dimetcote 9 also offers good impact and abrasion resistance .
Although the use of a brush to apply Dimetcote 9 is recommended only for touch-up and spot repair, Dimetcote should be appled by air or airless spray.
Must not be exposed to alkaline (more than pH 9) or acidic (less than pH 5.5) liquids.
This is a solvent-borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of spray mist or vapor, as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes.

Instructions For Use
Mixing ratio by volume: binder to zinc powder 77:23.
Many of PPG's zinc silicates are supplied as two-pack materials consisting of a container with pigmented binder and a drum containing a bag of zinc powder. To ensure proper mixing of both components, the instructions given below must be followed:
