This product contains no organotin compounds acting as biocides and complies with the international treaty adopted by the IMO in October 2001 on the control of harmful antifouling systems on ships (IMO document AFS/CONF/26).
When used as part of an approved scheme, this product holds the following certificates: the product is approved by the following classification societies as complying with the International Convention on the Control of Harmful Anti-fouling Systems on Ships, 2001 (AFS 2001): • Bureau Veritas • DNV • Korean Register of Shipping • Lloyd's Register. 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.
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.
Refit: Intersmooth 7460HS SPC should always be applied over the recommended primer. The primer surface should be dry and free of contaminants, and Intersmooth 7460HS SPC must be applied within the specified recoat interval (refer to the relevant product data sheet).
Damaged areas should be prepared to the specified standard (e.g. SSPC-SP10) and primed before applying Intersmooth 7460HS SPC.
Repair, Intersmooth 7460HS SPC over itself: as soon as the vessel enters the dock and before it dries, wash the whole area with dense high-pressure fresh water (3000 lb/in², 211 kg/cm²) from a fan spray gun held close to the surface. Refer to the recommended anti-rust primer system and apply Intersmooth 7460HS SPC within the primer's specified recoat interval (refer to the relevant primer product data sheet).
Applying Intersmooth 7460HS SPC over International Paint tin-free antifouling, International Paint Intersmooth SPC antifouling or a competitor's antifouling: for special advice, consult the local International Paint representative.
This coating is a single-component product; stir thoroughly with a power mixer before application.
