INTENDED USES
- Recommended as a protective coating for industrial facilities, I-beams, storage tanks, marine and offshore structures.
- Drew Mastic may be used as a primer/finish, or as a high build primer for epoxy or urethane top coats.
DRY TIMES
Normally there is no overcoating limit provided that the surface is free from chalking and other contaminants prior to application. To insure the best intercoat adhesion, it is recommended that you apply the subsequent coat before the preceding coat has fully cured. If coating has cured, scuff sand area to remove surface gloss.Substrate Temperature Tack Free Dry to Recoat Minimum Dry to Recoat Maximum

SURFACE PREPARATION
Surfaces that are to be coated must be clean, dry and free of surface contaminants. For best performance, blast clean to an SSPC-SP6 Commercial Blast Cleaning. When blasting is impractical or not possible use SSPC-SP2 Handtool and/or SP3 Powertool cleaning methods to prepare surfaces.
MIXING
Drew Mastic is supplied in a 2 component product, 4:1 mix ratio, stir separate components thoroughly before mixing together. Combine base and catalyst, using a powered drill mixer mix activated material for 2-3 minutes. Do not activate more material than you can use within the stated pot life.
