Applications & Uses

Application Method
Uses

Used as a topcoat over Protal™ Liquid Coatings, Archco Coatings & Linings to provide color coding, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance and long term UV stability.

Application

When applying over Protal Liquid Coatings refer to the Application Specifi cations for the complete topcoat instructions. Surface should be dry and above 40°F (4.5°C). If the Protal Liquid Coating has cured more than 72 hours, a light sweep blast or roughening of the surface with 60 grit sandpaper must happen before applying another coat. After the surface is roughened, wipe the entire surface with MEK or approved solvent to remove the dust and other contamination. Add hardener to base and mix at a slow speed until a constant color is achieved making sure all sides of container are scraped. Archco 65 can be brushed, rolled or sprayed. When applying use a wet film thickness gage to measure mil thickness. The coating can be sprayed using a minimum of 45:1 airless equipment.
