Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Substrate & Surface Preparation
- Must be clean and dry. Any dirt, dust, oil, contaminants, loose rust or loose mil scale must be removed.
- Immersion Carbon Steel: Not Recommended
- Non-Immersion Carbon Steel: Minimum SSPC-SP3 Power tool Cleaning. For optimum performance SSPC- SP6 Commercial Blast, surface profile 1.5-3.0 Mil.
- Galvanized Steel: Not recommended
- Previously painted surfaces: Surface must be sufficiently roughened, either by abrasive blasting or mechanical abrasion. Surface must attain a minimum 3B rating in accordance with ASTM D3359 “X-Scribe” test. Apply a test patch to check compatibility, prior to primary application.
- Topcoats: APCO 220, APCO 400HS, APCO 427
- Application Equipment
Spray Application:
- Conventional: Pressure pot with dual regulators, 3/8” I.D. material hose, Binks 2001 Gun w/66 series nozzles and 565 needle.
- Airless: Graco 36:1 Min. 1⁄4” material line. Tip size .013. Output PSI- 3000-3600
Brush & Roller: Touch up only
- Brush: Natural Bristle
- Roller: 1⁄4” Nap cover with Phenolic Core
- Mixing & Thinning
Components: One
Mixing: Power mix to uniform color & consistency
Thinning:
- Spray: Up to 12 oz/gal with S100
- Application
- Pre-application: Flush all equipment with thinner S100 or xylene
- Temperature: Application range from 40°F-110°F surface temperature. Do not apply below 40°F.
- Method: Apply one coat maintaining a wet edge to achieve a WFT of 4-6 Mils. Maximum performance will be achieved with two coats totaling 4-6 mils DFT.
- Application Continued
Inspection: Visually inspect film to ensure adequate coverage.
Clean up & disposal: After use immediately flush all equipment with thinner S100 or xylene. Dispose of all containers, solvents and unused materials in accordance with all local, state and federal regulations.
Curing schedule: Times based upon 75°F
- Dry to touch: 20 minutes
- Dry to topcoat: 30 minutes
- Dry through: 6 hours
Dry times are greatly affected by weather conditions and film thickness.
