Product Data
Recommended Substrate Conditions and Temperatures
- Approved primer must be sound, dry and free from any contamination
- Substrate temperature and application conditions
- Substrate temperature during application and curing should be between 5°C (41°F) and 40°C (104°F)
- Substrate temperature during application and curing should be at least 3°C (5°F) above dew point
- Ambient temperature during application and curing should be between 5°C (41°F) and 40°C (104°F)
- Relative humidity during application and curing should not exceed 85%
Instructions for Use
- Stir thoroughly until homogeneous and free of lumps
- Adding too much thinner results in reduced sag resistance and slower cure
Airless spray
Recommended thinner: THINNER 21-06 (normally no thinner required)
Volume of thinner: 0 - 5%
Nozzle angle: 20° – 50°, depending on shape of steel parts
Nozzle orifice: Approx. 0.48 – 0.64 mm (0.019 – 0.025 in)
Nozzle pressure: 20.0 MPa (approx. 200 bar; 2901 p.s.i.)
Notes:
All filters, including surge bottle and gun filters to be removed. External fluid uptake pipe filter is recommended.
Brush/roller
- For small areas only (touch up and repair). No thinner should be added.
