Product Data


RECOMMENDED SUBSTRATE CONDITIONS AND TEMPERATURES

Substrate Conditions

  • Steel with approved zinc silicate shop primer; sweep blasted to SPSS-Ss, welds, rusty and damaged areas blast cleaned to ISO-Sa2½
  • Steel; blast cleaned to ISO-Sa2½, blasting profile 40 – 70 µm (1.6 – 2.8 mils)
  • Primed steel or previous coat must be dry and free from any contamination
  • Galvanized steel must be dry, free from any contamination and zinc salts
  • Substrate temperature during application should be at least 3°C (5°F) above dew point

 

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

 

Air Spray

Recommended thinner: PPG Thinner 21-06

Volume of thinner: 6 - 10%, depending on required thickness and application conditions

Nozzle orifice: 1.8 - 2.0 mm (approx. 0.070 – 0.079 in)

Nozzle pressure: 0.3 - 0.4 MPa (approx. 3 - 4 bar; 44 - 58 p.s.i.)

 

Airless Spray

Recommended Thinner: PPG Thinner 21-06

Volume of Thinner: 0 - 3%, depending on required thickness and application conditions

Nozzle Orifice: Approx. 0.46 mm (0.018 in)

Nozzle Pressure: 15.0 MPa (approx. 150 bar; 2176 p.s.i.)

 

Brush/Roller

The recommended DFT cannot be reached in one coat

Recommended thinner: PPG Thinner 21-06

Volume of thinner: 0 - 3%
