DIRECTIONS FOR USE


SURFACE PREPARATION & SUBSTRATE CONDITION:

Steel; blast clean to Sa 3/ 2.5 of Swedish specification


Surface profile of 50 - 75 microns is recommended

Surface should be dry & free from all surface contamination


Substrate temperature should be at least 30o C above dew point but not above 50o C
MIXING
Stir the base and hardener separately. If settling is observed in the base, loosen the settled material with the help of hand stirrer followed by power driven stirrer for
quick homogenous mixing. Mix hardener gradually into the base under continuous stirring.

Maximum film build is best attained by airless spray


Typically 100-150 microns can be achieved by brush application. Multiple coats will be
required to achieve the total specified dry film thickness by brush application
Air Spray (Pressure Pot) can be used, but may require a multiple cross spray pattern
to attain maximum film build
As common to all epoxy, the product will chalk and discolour on exterior exposure.
However these phenomenon are not detrimental to anti-corrosive performance
For requirement of exterior durability with good gloss and colour retention, overcoat
with recommended topcoats
