Product Specification
| Technical Data | |
|---|---|
| Carboline Rustbond NG FC | |
| Primer: | Self-priming. May be applied over most generic types of coatings |
| Topcoats: | Acrylics, alkyds, epoxies, polyurethanes |
| Finish: | Gloss Chalks rapidly in sunlight |
| Solids Content: | By Volume 90% +/- 1% |
| Theoretical Coverage Rate: |
35.4 m²/l at 25 microns 17.7 m²/l at 50 microns Allow for loss in mixing and application. |
| Dry Film Thickness: | 25 - 51 microns per coat |
| Dry Temp. Resistance: |
Continuous: 79°C Non-Continuous: 93°C Discoloration and loss of gloss is observed above 80°C |
| VOC Values: |
As Supplied: 108 g Thinner 2: 7% 150 g/l Thinner 76: 7% 150 g/l These are nominal values |
| Limitations: |
Epoxies lose gloss, discolour, and chalk in sunlight exposure Do not use for immersion service Rustbond sealers must be topcoated |

Drying Times
| Curing Schedule | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Surface Temp | Dry to Handle | Dry to Topcoat | Final Cure General |
| 5°C | 7 Days | 5 Days | 14 Days |
| 10°C | 48 Hours | 48 Hours | 9 Days |
| 24°C | 18 Hours | 14 Hours | 7 Days |
| 32°C | 14 Hours | 5 Hours | 2 Days |
- These times are based on 50% relative humidity and 25-50 microns dry film thickness
- Higher film thickness, insufficient ventilation or cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could result in solvent entrapment and premature failure
- Excessive humidity or condensation on the surface during curing can interfere with the cure, can cause discolouration, and may result in a surface haze. Any haze or blush must be removed by water washing before recoating
- During high humidity conditions, it is recommended that the application be done while temperatures are increasing
| Curing Schedule | |||

| Surface Temp | Maximum Recoat Time Acrylics and Alkyds | Maximum Recoat Time Epoxies and Urethanes | |
| 2°C | 7 Days | 21 Days | |
| 10°C | 7 Days | 21 Days | |
| 24°C | 7 Days | 21 Days | |

Surface Preparation
| Preparation | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| General: | Surfaces must be clean and dry. Employ adequate methods to remove dirt, dust, oil and all other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion of the coating | ||
| Steel: | SSPC-SP2 or SP3 | ||
| Previously Painted Surfaces: | A test patch is recommended to verify compatibility with existing coating. Existing paint must attain a minimum 3A-3B rating in accordance with ASTM D3359 adhesion test | ||
Application Methods
| Product Information | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Mixing: |
Power mix components separately to break down any gel. Keep the mixing blade at slow speed and submerged in the product to minimize whipping of air into the material. Scrape the sides of the container occasionally to ensure uniformity. Continue to mix for 1-2 minutes DO NOT MIX PARTIAL KITS |
||
| Thinning: | Thinning not normally required but may be thinned up to 7% with Thinner 76 or Thinner 2. Use of thinners other than those supplied or recommended by Carboline may adversely affect product performance and void product warranty, whether express or implied | ||

Application Conditions
| Conditions | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Condition | Material | Surface | Ambient | Humidity |
| Minimum | 4°C | 2°C | 2°C | 0% |
| Maximum | 30°C | 45°C | 38°C | 90% |
- This product simply requires the substrate temperature to be 3°C above the dew point
- 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
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
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 ensure all personnel are below guidelines
- If not sure or if not able to monitor levels, use MSHA/NIOSH approved respirator
Caution
- THIS PRODUCT EXOTHERMS AT THE END OF ITS POT LIFE
- Any unused quantities will become hot (70°C). Immediately spread out on an appropriate surface or add sand or other suitable heat sink to the unused material to reduce the severity of exotherm
- Take appropriate precautions against breathing fumes
- 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 regulations
- In areas where explosion hazards exist, users should be required to use non-ferrous tools and wear conductive and non-sparking shoes
