*The recoat interval depends on the subsequent exposure conditionsIf the maximum recoat interval is exceeded, roughen the primer surface to ensure intercoat adhesion; the recoat paint must be of the same type or another alkyd-compatible type.

Substrate preparation

For direct contact with the substrate, all surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and uncontaminated; before painting, all surfaces should be assessed and prepared to ISO 8501. Blast-clean to Sa 2½ with a surface roughness of 40–75 µm. Before derusting, remove oil/grease and weld spatter and smooth welds and sharp edges.

Areas that cannot be blasted must be cleaned with power tools to St 3, free of oil and water, with no loose material.

Precautions

1. Before mixing the two components, stir the base thoroughly with a power tool, then add the curing agent and mix uniformly. Adjust the thinner amount according to application requirements and temperature, and mix thoroughly.

2. During application and curing, the substrate temperature shall be above 5 °C and at least 3 °C above the dew point, and the relative humidity shall not exceed 75%. Temperature and relative humidity shall be measured on the substrate close to the work area.

Safety Precautions

This product is a water-borne, environmentally friendly coating; non-flammable and non-explosive.

The coating contains a water-borne co-solvent that may irritate the skin; wear a respirator and other protective equipment during application.

Do not inhale spray mist; avoid skin contact with the coating.

If paint splashes on the skin, wash immediately with a suitable cleaner, soap and plenty of water.

In case of eye contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention immediately.

Under normal application conditions, the dried coating is safe to use.
