Surface Preparation: 

All Surfaces: Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt and chemical contaminants by washing the surface with Krud Kutter Original Cleaner Degreaser, commercial detergent or other suitable cleaner. Mold and mildew must be cleaned with a chlorinated cleaner or bleach solution. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and allow to fully dry. All surfaces must be dry at time of application.

Steel: Hand tool (SSPC-SP-2) or power tool (SSPC-SP-3) clean to remove loose rust, mill scale, and deteriorated previous coatings. Abrasive blasting to a minimum Commercial Grade (SSPC-SP-6, NACE 3) with a 1-2 mil (25-50 μ) surface profile is recommended for optimal performance. Abrasive blast cleaned steel requires two coats.

Concrete and Masonary: Hand or power tool clean to remove all loose or unsound concrete, masonry, or previous coating. Very dense, non-porous concrete should be acid etched or abrasive blasted to remove the laitance layer and create a surface profile. Allow new concrete to cure for 30 days before coating.

Previously Coated: Previously coated surfaces must be sound and in good condition. Smooth, hard, or glossy finishes should be scarified by sanding to create a surface profile. The 5200 System DTM Acrylic Finish is compatible with most coatings, but a test patch is suggested.

Application: Apply only when the air and surface temperatures are between 50-100°F (10-38°C) and the surface temperature is at least 5°F (3°C) above the dew point. The relative humidity should not be greater than 85%. Extremely high or low relative humidity can effect dry times and the final gloss of the coating. Iron oxide staining may occur with some colors if surface and air temperature are below 60°F (16°C) or the relative humidity is above 70% during the time of application. For optimum performance use a primer. For optimum hiding, additional coats of 5215 Alumni-Non may be required over dark colors.

Equipment Recommendations: 

(Comparable equipment also suitable)
Brush: Use a good quality synthetic bristle brush.
Roller: Use a good quality short nap synthetic fiber roller cover (1/4-3/8”)
