Product Specification

Drying Times

Surface Preparation

• Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free from grease, oils, dust and other contamination prior to application
• Substrate temperature should be 5⁰C or above for application and during cure, and a minimum of 3⁰C above the dew point
• Adequate dry air ventilation should be supplied during drying
• Read and follow the safety data sheet, product data sheet (see section above) and label instructions
• High pressure wash to remove all loose debris and other contamination
• Thoroughly clean and degrease using suitable HMG Prep Clean 2801, HMG 2802 or HMG 2804 until surface is clean and free from all deposits (grease, oil, silicone)
• Heavily rusted areas to scraped, wire brushed or mechanically prepared to remove all loose material
• Failure to degrease areas to be treated could slow down or stop conversion process
• Stir all paints thoroughly before use
• Always use the same batch number on the same job
• Check colour & sheen
• Filter the product immediately before use
• Reduce emissions and maintain quality by replacing tin lid after use

Application

• Apply by brush to affected areas, applying light coat
• Avoid coating non rusted areas where possible
• Application and use should always conform with the codes of practice described in BS 6150 and BS 5493

Substrates

• HMG Ferrozinc is suitable for use on wire brushed or mechanically abraded metal surfaces which are free from heavy rust scale, grease and dirt

Health & Safety

• Refer to SDS and tin label prior to use.
• Suitable respiratory equipment should be worn when spraying.
• Contaminated rags, spray booth filters or other substrates should be segregated from other chemical waste, soaked with water or disposed of in a non-combustible container with tight fitting lid.
