Features and Benefits

• Temperature resistant up to 204ºC
• Very good flexibility
• Excellent overall chemical resistance
• Very good abrasion resistance
• Easily applied by spray
• Acceptable for use over stainless steels

Product Specification

Drying Times

• These times are based on the recommended dry film thickness. Excessive film thickness or inadequate ventilation conditions after application require longer dry times and will cause premature failure in extreme cases
• Maximum recoat time is normally 60 days. If exceeded and depending on curing time and exposure, pre-treatment may be required prior to overcoating. Contact Rawlins on Tech - 0113 2455450 (option 2) or [email protected] for further information
• Excessive humidity or condensation on the surface during curing may result in surface haze or blush: Any haze or blush should be removed by washing with water before recoating.

Surface Preparation

Application Methods

Application Conditions

• Condensation due to substrate temperatures below the dew point can cause flash rusting on prepared steel and interfere with proper adhesion to the substrate
• Special application techniques may be required above or below normal application conditions
• Do not apply when the surface temperature is less than 3°C above the dew-point

Health and Safety

Clean Up

• Use Thinner 2
• In case of spillage, absorb and dispose of in accordance with local applicable regulations

Safety

• Read and follow all caution statements on this product data sheet and on the safety data sheet for this product
• Employ normal workmanlike safety precautions
• Hypersensitive persons should wear protective clothing, gloves and use protective cream on face, hands, and all exposed areas

Ventilation

• When used in enclosed areas, thorough air circulation must be used during and after application until the coating is cured
• The ventilation system should be capable of preventing the solvent vapor concentration from reaching the lower explosion limit for the solvents used
• User should test and monitor exposure levels to insure all personnel are below guidelines.
• If not sure or if not able to monitor levels, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air respirator

Caution

• This product contains flammable solvents
• Keep away from sparks and open flames
• All electrical equipment and installations should be made and grounded in accordance with applicable regulations
• In areas where explosion hazards exist, workmen should be required to use nonferrous tools and wear conductive and nonsparking shoes

• Refer to the product data sheet and safety data sheet in the attachments section above for further details
