- Surface Preparation
All surfaces should be clean, dry and free of all foreign contaminants.
A SSPC-SP1 Solvent Cleaning with Highland 901 Cleaning Solvent is recommended before blasting or other cleaning method.Carbon Steel - Immersion:
Obtain a 2-3 mil angular blast profile using one of the recommended methods below.
Best: A SSPC-SP5/NACE 1 White Metal Blast Cleaning is recommended for maximum coating performance and longevity.
Good: A SSPC-SP10/NACE 2 Near White Metal Blast Cleaning provides good results.Carbon Steel - Non-Immersion:
Obtain a 2-3 mil angular blast profile using one of the recommended methods below.
Best: A SSPC-SP10/NACE 2 Near White Metal Blast Cleaning is recommended for maximum coating performance and longevity.
Good: A SSPC-SP6/NACE 3 Commercial Blast Cleaning provides good results.Galvanized Steel: Contact a Highland representative as recommendation will vary depending on substrate and exposure conditions.
Note: The second coat/topcoat must be applied within 36 hours at 77˚F or the surface will need to be scuffed.
- Mixing & Application
Mixing: Highland 74-IS Series needs to be thoroughly mixed using mechanical agitation. Mix entire contents of Part “A” Activator (74-IS-100) with Part “B” Base (74-IS-####) (1:1 by volume) Product is ready to apply after proper mixing and a 30 minute induction period.
Reduction: Reduction is not required, if desired, reduce by 0% - 10% with Highland #740 reducer.
Highland 74-IS Series is designed for In-Situ Application. To ensure optimal performance, apply according to recommendations below.
PIGing Application: Information proprietary based on contractor experience
Brush or Roller: Both are acceptable for touch up.
Spray Application: Acceptable for touch up – May Require Reduction
Clean Up: Highland #901 Cleaning Solvent
- Typical Systems
Standard/Immersion Service: Apply 10-16 mils DFT of 74-IS Series in 2-4 uniform coats.
