- Key Attributes
- Application Temperatures: 50 - 110°F (10 - 43.33°C)
- Application Tools: Electrostatic
- Thinner: Xylene
- Clean Up: Xylene or Lacquer Thinner
- Surface Preparation
- Surfaces to be coated must be clean, dry, and free of dirt, oil, or grease.
- Rust should be removed from metal surfaces by wire brushing, steel wool or industrial abrasive paper and apply one coat of Dyco #MP-50 White Metal Primer or comparable metal primer.
- On old surfaces, remove chalk by pressure cleaning or wire brushing; also, if necessary, seal the surface with a chalk sealer.
- If mildew is evident, use a mildew treatment.
- Repair all leaks with the product brush on caulk or appropriate patching compound.
- If leaking areas are severe, embed fiberglass tape into the first layer of brush on caulk, and then apply another layer of brush on caulk over the taped area.
- Allow to dry thoroughly before applying.
- Tools
Apply with a Ransburg #2 Electrostatic Spray Gun, or equivalent.
- Thinning
This product may be thinned as necessary with Xylene
- Limitation
- Do not apply in direct sunlight or when air or surface temperature is below 50 degrees Fahrenheit or above 114 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Do not apply if temperature is less than 5 degrees above dew point.
- Do not apply if surface is damp or if precipitation is expected within 4 hours.
- To avoid breathing vapor, spray mist, or sanding dust, open windows and doors or use other means to ensure fresh air during sanding, application, and drying.
- If you experience eye watering, headaches, or dizziness, increase fresh air or wear respiratory protection (NIOSH/MSHA TC 23C or equivalent) or leave area.
