Work Stoppages and Cleanup
Do not allow material to remain in hoses, gun or spray equipment. Thoroughly flush all equipment with International GTA220/GTA822 or International GTA415. Once units of paint have been mixed they should not be resealed and it is advised that after prolonged stoppages work recommences with freshly mixed units. Clean all equipment immediately after use with International GTA220/GTA822 or International GTA415. It is good working practice to periodically flush out spray equipment during the course of the working day. Frequency of cleaning will depend upon amount sprayed, temperature and elapsed time, including any delays. Do not exceed pot life limitations.
All surplus materials and empty containers should be disposed of in accordance with appropriate regional regulations/legislation.
Welding
In the event welding or flame cutting is performed on metal coated with this product, dust and fumes will be emitted which will require the use of appropriate personal protective equipment and adequate local exhaust ventilation.

If you do not fully understand these warnings and instructions or if you can not strictly comply with them, do not use this product. Proper ventilation and protective measures must be provided during application and drying to keep solvent vapour concentrations within safe limits and to protect against toxic or oxygen deficient hazards. Take precautions to avoid skin and eye contact (ie. gloves, goggles, face masks, barrier creams etc.) Actual safety measures are dependant on application methods and work environment.
Spot Repair - The Intertuf 262/Intergard 263 system may be used for the spot repair of existing epoxy, coal tar epoxy, chlorinated rubber, vinyl tar and tar-free vinyl substrates. Feathered overlap areas must be kept to a minimum.
Consult Rawlins Technical. The Intertuf 262/Intergard 263 system is not suitable for repair of bituminous substrates. Upgrade - Intertuf 262/Intergard 263 may be used for the upgrade of existing epoxy, coal tar epoxy and chlorinated rubber substrates.
Substrates not suitable for upgrading:- vinyl tar, tar-free vinyl, bituminous.
Intergard 263 may be applied at substrate temperatures down to -15°C. Before applications are made below -5°C consult your local IP representative for further detail of application procedure.
Overcoating information is given for guidance only and is subject to regional variation depending upon local climate and environmental conditions. Consult your local International Paint representative/Rawlins for specific recommendations.
Apply in good weather. Temperature of the surface to be coated must be at least 3°C above the dew point. For optimum application properties bring the material to 21-27°C, unless specifically instructed otherwise, prior to mixing and application.
Unmixed material (in closed containers) should be maintained in protected storage in accordance with information given under "Shelf Life" in the Product Information section. Technical and application data herein is for the purpose of establishing a general guideline of the coating application procedures.
