When used as part of an approved scheme, this coating holds the following certificates: • Food contact — complies with the provisions of Section 175.300 of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Code of Federal Regulations. For details, consult your International Paint representative.
For the paint system best suited to the surface to be protected, consult your local International Paint representative.
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.
Newbuilding/major repair: where required, remove weld spatter and grind welds and sharp edges smooth.
Abrasive blast clean to Sa2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007). If oxidation has occurred between blasting and application of Interline 9001, the surface shall be re-blasted to the specified pictorial standard.
Surface defects exposed by abrasive blasting must be ground, filled or treated by a suitable method.
For maintenance, consult International Paint.
For specific advice, consult your local International Paint representative.
Note: for the marine environment in North America, the following surface preparation standard may be used: SSPC-SP10 in place of Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007)
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.
After mixing, the paint must be >20 °C during mixing and application.
Do not thin
Recommended nozzle tip size 0.38–0.58 mm (15–23 thou); total fluid pressure at the nozzle not less than 176 kg/cm² (2500 psi)
Conventional spray application is not recommended.
Brush application is recommended for small areas only. Use flat brushes only. Multiple 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.
International GTA415/GTA822
Do not leave paint in hoses, spray guns or spray equipment. Flush all equipment thoroughly with International GTA415/GTA822. Once mixed, a batch of paint shall not be re-sealed; if work is interrupted for a long period, remix the components before resuming.
All equipment shall be cleaned with International GTA415/GTA822 immediately after use. Periodically flushing spray equipment during the working day is good practice. The frequency of cleaning depends on the quantity sprayed, temperature and elapsed time (including delays). Do not exceed the pot life of the mixed 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.

The minimum dry film thickness of the coating system is 240 µm.
The maximum dry film thickness of the coating system is 450 µm.
For tank areas that are difficult to coat due to structural issues, such as tanks with many stiffeners, and areas where over-thickness cannot be avoided, a maximum film thickness of up to 600 µm is acceptable.
This product does not cure sufficiently below 15 °C. During application and until 48 hours after application of the final coat, the steel temperature must not be below 15 °C and the relative humidity must not exceed 50%. Consult International Paint to determine whether Interline 9001 is suitable for the cargo to be carried. Mandatory post-heating cure is required before the coating is put into service — for further information, consult International Paint.
Drying times and overcoating intervals may vary with site factors such as tank geometry and ventilation rate.
Recoating data are for guidance only and depend on local climatic and environmental conditions. For special recommendations, consult the local International Paint representative. The temperature of the surface to be coated must be at least 3 °C above the dew point and not lower than 15 °C. Throughout the entire application process (including between coats), the temperature must be maintained at or above 15 °C, and this condition must be maintained for at least 48 hours after application of the final coat of the system. Before application, the base and hardener should be conditioned at 23 °C for 48 hours. After mixing, the paint must be >20 °C during mixing and application.

If the storage temperature is below 10 °C, crystallization of the material may occur. This does not affect product performance, but in accordance with normal practice, the paint should be placed at 23 °C for 48 h before use to ensure the crystals are re-dissolved into the paint. Before use, re-inspect the paint and stirring is recommended to ensure all crystals are dissolved and uniformly dissolved.
