Application

Application Procedure

All surfaces should be well sanded. Scuff sanding between coats is necessary. Remove all sanding dust before proceeding with finishing. Always agitate thoroughly before application. Wet mil film application should be 3 to 5 mils per coat. The second or third coat should be applied after complete drying of the previous coat. Sand between coats using 320 sandpaper. Always sand just prior to recoating. The total dry film build should be at least 3 mils and should not exceed 5-6 dry mils.

Note: Hot spray application is not recommended. If hot spray equipment is used, temperature settings should never be over 110°F or 43°C. Apply using only stainless steel or plastic spray equipment. If aluminum equipment is used, some oxidation may occur. Before application material, surface and air temperatures should be a minimum of 65°F or 18°C.

Equipment Clean Up

  • All equipment should be flushed with warm water immediately after use.
  • A subsequent flush with alcohol will insure all moisture is removed from the system.

Surface Preparation

  • New Work: Remove any dirt, grease or other construction contamination from surface. Sand wood as required. No sealer is required.
  • Old Work: Remove any dirt, grease, or other contamination from surface. Sand well to improve adhesion.

Reduction

ARROYO® 1K Waterborne Clear Topcoat Tint Base does not require reducing but can be thinned with distilled water (use very small amounts at a time). Thinning should be limited to 3%. Over thinning can cause sags due to high solids content of product.
