- Gloss finish
Preparation & Application
Recommended Substrate Conditions and Temperatures
Substrate Conditions
- Previous suitable coat must be dry and free from any contamination
- Previous coat: surface should be sufficiently roughened if necessary
- Substrate temperature during application should not exceed 50°C (122°F)
- Substrate temperature during application should be at least 3°C (5°F) above dew point
System Specification
- SYSTEMS FOR BOOTTOP AND TOPSIDE – SYSTEM SHEET 3102
- SYSTEMS FOR SUPERSTRUCTURE AND DECK FITTINGS – SYSTEM SHEET 3104
Instructions for Use
Stir well before use. The temperature of the paint should preferably be above 15°C (59°F), otherwise extra thinner may be required to obtain application viscosity. Adding too much thinner results in reduced sag resistance. Adequate ventilation must be maintained during application and curing (please refer to INFORMATION SHEETS 1433 and 1434).
Air Spray
Recommended thinner: PPG Thinner 20-05
Volume of thinner: 10 - 15%, depending on required thickness and application conditions
Nozzle orifice: 2.0 – 3.0 mm (approx. 0.079 – 0.110 in)
Nozzle pressure: 0.3 - 0.4 MPa (approx. 3 - 4 bar; 44 - 58 p.s.i.)
Airless Spray
Recommended thinner: PPG Thinner 20-05
Volume of thinner: 0 - 2%, depending on required thickness and application conditions
Nozzle orifice: Approx. 0.48 mm (0.019 in)
Nozzle pressure: 8.0 - 12.0 MPa (approx. 80 - 120 bar; 1161 - 1741 p.s.i.)
Brush/Roller
Recommended thinner: PPG Thinner 20-05
Volume of thinner: 0 – 2%
Cleaning Solvent
PPG Thinner 20-05
Safety Precautions
For paint and recommended thinners see INFORMATION SHEETS 1430, 1431 and relevant Material Safety Data Sheets. This is a solvent-borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of spray mist or vapour, as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes.
