For details, consult the local International Paint representative.
For the paint system best suited to the surface to be protected, consult your local International Paint representative.
It is recommended to use Intergard 5263 FJA520/FJA521 light yellow with specific lead-chromate-free decorative topcoats to ensure colour uniformity on above-water areas. For special advice, consult International Paint.
Intergard 5263 should be applied only over epoxy anti-rust primers; the primer used depends on the ship area and application location. Common primers include:
| Intershield 300 | Intergard 7500 |
|---|---|
| Intershield 803 | Intertuf 262 |
| Intergard 343 | Intertuf 362Intergard 787 |
Applied in accordance with the standard Worldwide Marine Specifications.
All surfaces to be coated must be clean, dry and free of contaminants.
Wash with high-pressure or ordinary fresh water as appropriate, and remove all oil, grease, soluble contaminants and other foreign matter in accordance with the SSPC-SP1 solvent cleaning standard.
Intergard 5263 should always be applied over the recommended primer coating system.
Intergard 5263 should be used per the specification provided by International Paint.
The primer surface must be dry and free of contaminants (oil, grease, salts, etc.), and recoated with Intergard 5263 within the specified recoat interval (refer to the relevant primer product data sheet).
For specific advice, consult your local International Paint representative.
The coating is supplied in two containers as one unit. Always mix the entire unit in the supplied ratio. Once mixed, use within the specified pot life.
(1) Stir the base (Component A) with a power mixer.
(2) Mix all of the base (Component A) with the curing agent (Component B) and stir thoroughly with a power mixer.
International GTA220. Thinning must not exceed the range allowed by local environmental regulations.
Recommended nozzle size 0.46–0.66 mm (18–26 thou); total output fluid pressure at the nozzle not less than 176 kg/cm² (2500 psi)
Brush application is recommended for small areas only. Several coats may be required to achieve the specified film thickness.
Roller application is recommended for small areas only. Several coats may be required to achieve the specified film thickness.
Do not leave paint in hoses, spray guns or spray equipment. Flush all equipment thoroughly with International thinner. Once mixed, paint should not be resealed; if work is interrupted for too long, mix a fresh batch before resuming application.
All equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with International thinner. Flushing spray equipment periodically during the day is good working practice. Cleaning frequency depends on the volume sprayed, temperature and time in use (including delays). Do not exceed the pot life of the paint.
All surplus paint and empty containers must be disposed of in accordance with appropriate local regulations/laws.
If welding or flame cutting is performed on metal coated with this product, dust and fumes will be released; use suitable personal protective equipment and local exhaust ventilation. In North America, follow the instructions in ANSI/ASC Z49.1 “Safety in Welding and Cutting”.
All work related to the application and use of this product must comply with national health, safety and environmental protection standards and regulations.
Before using this product, obtain, read and follow the health and safety information in the Material Safety Data Sheet for the product. Read and observe all precautions in the Material Safety Data Sheet and on the container label. If these warnings and requirements are not fully understood, or cannot be strictly observed, do not use the product. During application and drying of the product, provide adequate ventilation and protective measures to keep solvent vapour concentrations within safe limits, so as to prevent poisoning or oxygen deficiency. Take protective measures to avoid skin and eye contact with the product (e.g. gloves, goggles, face shield, barrier cream). Specific safety measures depend on the application method and working environment.

Local repair - the Intertuf 262/Intergard 5263 system can be used for local repair of existing epoxy, coal-tar epoxy, chlorinated rubber, vinyl tar and tar-free vinyl coatings. Sanded feather-edged overlap areas must be kept to a minimum. Consult International Paint. The Intertuf 262/Intergard 5263 system is not suitable for repairing bituminous coatings.
Upgrading - Intertuf 262/Intergard 5263 can be used to upgrade existing epoxy, coal-tar epoxy and chlorinated rubber coatings. Consult International Paint.
Substrates not suitable for upgrading: vinyl tar, tar-free vinyl, bitumen.
Recoat data are for guidance only, and depend on local climatic and environmental conditions. For special advice, consult the local International Paint representative. Apply in good weather. The surface temperature must be at least 3 °C above the dew point. Unless otherwise instructed, for ideal application performance, warm the coating to 21–27 °C before mixing and application. Unmixed paint (in tightly closed containers) should be stored protectively as specified in the 'Storage' section of this product data sheet. The technical and application data mentioned here are intended as general principles for establishing a coating application procedure. Test performance results come from controlled laboratory environments, and International Paint does not claim that the published test results, or any other tests, accurately represent results obtained in all site environments. Because application, environmental and design parameters vary widely, care should be taken in coating selection, performance confirmation and use.
