Material
- Plastic Pipe, PVC pipe, Composite pipe
- Styrofoam, Polyurethane foam, Styrene
Application
- Be sure the surface is clean and dry before treating.
- Apply with sprayer head held at 8 to 12 inches from surface.
- Be sure to allow drying between each coat.
Coverage
- Apply three (3) coats at 1050 sq. ft. per gallon with the final coverage rate of 350 sq. ft. per gallon.
- Apply three (3) coats at 600 sq. ft. per gallon with the final coverage rate of 200 sq. ft. per gallon.
- Exterior/Interior
All surfaces to be treated must be clean and dry. Fire Poly FPCC is water based, clear liquid that becomes insoluble when dry. If over-coating is intended, Fire Poly FPCC is an excellent primer for use under or over latex paints.
Avoid wasteful runs and dripping. It should be noted that unlike some products, materials treated with Fire Poly FPCC require no special cutting tools or special fasteners. Contact parts of any equipment should be stainless steel or plastic to prevent chemical reaction and breakdown.
- Overspray
The overspray will not harm plants or animals. Spills can be flushed with water. A rag wetted with bleach and water mix will clean up spotting.
- Cleanup Procedure
Airless Equipment
- Run clear water through the system until coating is flushed out. When minor sudsing on the surface stops, the system is flushed.
- Run bleach and water mix (1 part to 4 parts) through the system as a solvent for cleaning any residue.
- Repeat Step 1 if any foaming occurs in Step 2.
- Lubricate system as specified by the equipment manufacturer to combat rusting.
- If two or more applications are planned on the same day, the sprayer can be kept clean by running water through the system between applications.
Brushes/Rollers
- Clean immediately after use.
- Wash thoroughly with bleach and water mix (1 part to 4 parts).
