    Product Data


    RECOMMENDED SUBSTRATE CONDITIONS AND TEMPERATURES

    Substrate Conditions

    • Steel with approved zinc silicate shop primer; sweep blasted to SPSS-Ss, welds, rusty and damaged areas blast cleaned to ISO-Sa2½
    • Steel; blast cleaned to ISO-Sa2½, blasting profile 40 – 70 µm (1.6 – 2.8 mils)
    • Primed steel or previous coat must be dry and free from any contamination
    • Galvanized steel must be dry, free from any contamination and zinc salts
    • Substrate temperature during application should be at least 3°C (5°F) above dew point

     

    INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

    Stir well before use. The temperature of the paint should preferably be above 15°C (59°F), otherwise extra thinner may be required to obtain application viscosity. Adding too much thinner results in reduced sag resistance

     Notes:

    1. Surface should be dry and free from any contamination
    2. The above data are a fair indication for normal application conditions
    3. Longer drying times may be necessary at higher DFT and under unfavourable atmospheric conditions
    4. For paint and recommended thinners see INFORMATION SHEETS 1430, 1431 and relevant Material Safety Data Sheets
    5. 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
