Over-coating after the maximum recoat time requires that the surface be abraded prior to application
Use a medium grit, 60 to 80 grit paper or sweep blast to roughen the surface
Clean abraded area of dust before recoating or repair
Coating is ready for backfill when it is "thumb nail" hard
The thumb nail hardness is defined by when one cannot make a permanent indention in the coating with one's thumb
Surface Preparation
Preparation
General:
All sharp edges shall be ground to produce a radius and all imperfections, such as, delaminations, scabs, slivers and slag shall be corrected prior to abrasive blasting
Degrease surface prior to abrasive blast in accordance to SSPC SP-1
Organic solvents, alkaline solutions, steam, hot water with detergents or other systems that will completely remove dirt, oil, grease, etc. may be used
Steel:
Steel substrate must be blasted to a minimum Near-White Metal Finish (SSPC SP10 or NACE NO. 2) with a 2.5 to 4.5 mil (62 to 112 microns) dense, sharp angular profile
Application Methods
Product Information
Mixing:
Power mix part A and part B separately until uniform for plural airless spray application
Do not over mix or incorporate air by mixing too fast
Hand apply kits are hand mixed until colour is consistent
Green kit consists of Part A in yellow 0600; Part B in blue P100
Grey kit consists of Part A in grey 0700; Part B in 0909
Blue kit consists of Part A in blue 0100; Part B in 0909
Thinning:
Thinning is not required
Ratio:
4:1 Ratio by volume (A to B)
Pot Life:
15 minutes @ 23°C
*These are general guidelines for the application of this product. Job site conditions may require modifications to these guidelines to achieve the desired results
Conventional Spray:
Not recommended
Airless Spray:
Use fixed ratio (4:1 by volume) heated plural component spray equipment with heated hoppers, heated hoses leading to a mixer manifold and static mixer, attach to a 15 to 25 ft. ¼” ID whip hose (depending on tip size used) followed by an airless gun utilizing self-cleaning reverse “a” tips from 0.019-0.031 inches
Note: Heat the “A” side material to 43-54°C and the “B” side material to 90 to 32-38°C
Fluid pressure will range from 2500 to 3500 psi. This will ensure proper spraying
Take care to prevent the mixed material from setting up in your whip hoses
For best results, keep your whip hoses as short as possible, purge them immediately if work is interrupted, keep them insulated from hot surfaces
Brush and Roller (General):
May be hand applied for small repair areas by first mixing the coating and spreading the coating to desire thickness using brush or roller
Polyclad 975 H is our hand applied version and is better suited for hand application

This product simply requires the substrate temperature to be above the dew point
Condensation due to substrate temperatures below the dew point can cause flash rusting on prepared steel and interfere with proper adhesion to the substrate
