- Do not apply when rain, mist, sleet or snow are imminent.
- During application and drying time of the paint coating, the surface should be dry, the Relative Humidity should not exceed 85% and the steel temperature should remain at least 3ºC above the dew point.
- Only apply this product when the above conditions can be maintained throughout the critical application and drying/curing process.
