Surface Preparation
Remove grease, oil and all other surface contaminations by alkaline or high pressure (steam) cleaning in combination with appropriate detergents. For optimum results remove rust, rust scale, mill scale and deteriorated coatings by abrasive blasting to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1 : 1988), blast profile max. 50 µm. If blasting is not possible remove loose rust and loose coatings by scraping and/or wire brushing to St 3 (ISO 8501-1 : 1988). Sand previous coatings which are in good condition to remove gloss and to roughen the surface slightly. The surface must be clean and dry during application.
Application Conditions
Temperature of air, substrate and coating material between 5 and 35°C and relative humidity below 85%. The substrate temperature must be at least 3°C above dew point.
Application & Thinning
BRUSH Dilute up to 10 vol. %; Rust-Oleum Thinner 633. Use natural bristles, long hair brushes. Brush application may require 2 coats to achieve recommended dry film thickness.
ROLLER Dilute up to 10 vol. %; Rust-Oleum Thinner 633. Use medium nap, perlon 8-12 mm. rollers. Roller application may require 2 coats to achieve recommended dry film thickness.
