Application
• Cold applied liquid protective coating for buried / submerged surface or equipment.
• Coating interior / exterior surfaces of metal or concrete tanks, culverts, steel pilings, filter
screens, sluice gates, tank bases, trestles etc.
• Coating of interior / exterior of barges and under-water structures.

Advantages
• Not affected by marine organisms, soil chemicals and soil bacteria.
• Highly resistant to corrosion due to sea water / alkalis / acid.
• Retains its pliability over a wide range of temperatures.
• Provides an abrasion resistant tough coat.
• Provides a void-less, joint-less continuous film capable of taking expansions and contractions
without cracking.
• Acts as an excellent water resistant coating even under severe corrosive conditions.

Application Methodology
➢ Surface Preparation
• Prepare the base metal by mechanical grinding or other suitable method.
• Remove dust, flakes, oil, grease or other loose foreign particles by sand blasting, iron
brush or compressed air.
• Ensure the ambient temperature is not less than 10 OC and not more than 50 OC at the
time of coating.
➢ Material Preparation
• Stir drums thoroughly to obtain a homogenous and uniform mix a high speed mixture
(approx. 150 - 200 rpm) fitted with a suitable mixing paddle.
• Ensure that there is no entrapped air.
• Place the spiral blade at the bottom of the container before starting the mixer. This will
help avoiding inducting air into the mass. Slowly move the stirrer head up to the surface
while stirring. Do not remove the blade while still it is spinning. This procedure is continued
for 5 minutes up and down to have a homogeneous mixing.
• Allow ShaliMastic® HD / LC to settle for 10 minutes.

➢ Application of Material
• Prime surface with ShaliPrime PW CT.
• Allow minimum 4 hrs to hard dry the primer.
• Apply ShaliMastic® HD / LC on the prepared surface by brush / metal plate (Patra).
• For metal and concrete surface, we recommend minimum 3 and 2 coats respectively.
• Do not apply ShaliMastic® HD / LC over shop-coating (particularly red oxide coating).
