Surface Preparation
Recommended Substrate Conditions and Temperatures
Substrate conditions
- Steel; blast cleaned to ISO-Sa2½ for excellent corrosion protection
- For new-buildings or spot/full blast, SIGMAGLIDE 890 should only be applied over SIGMAGLIDE 790
- As a refresh coat, SIGMAGLIDE 890 can be applied over itself in line with PPG Protective & Marine Coatings
SIGMAGLIDE General Working Procedure
- Previous coat must be dry and free from any contamination
Substrate Temperature & Application Conditions
- Substrate temperature during application and curing should be above 5°C (41°F)
- Substrate temperature during application and curing should be at least 3°C (5°F) above dew point
- Relative humidity during application and curing should be between 40% and 85%
System Specification
In order to achieve optimal performance from the SIGMAGLIDE system, the individual SIGMAGLIDE products must be applied in strict accordance with the minimum specified dry film thickness and also with the PPG Protective & Marine Coatings SIGMAGLIDE General Working Procedure. Please consult our technical team on 0113 2455450 or [email protected] for details of the application procedure which has been prepared to the best of our knowledge and in accordance with worldwide application best practices in order to ensure optimal workmanship and application results.
Application
Instructions for Use
Mixing ratio by volume: base to hardener 80:20 (4:1)
- Open drum just before use
- Stir base well before use for 5 minutes
- Add hardener to the base and stir well again for at least 5 minutes
- No thinner should be added
- All equipment must be thoroughly cleaned prior to use and before re-use with other materials, to prevent contamination
- Overspray on paint, which will not be recoated with the SIGMAGLIDE 890, should be avoided as much as possible
Induction Time
None.
Airless Spray
