Film Thickness Range And Coverage


Product Data
  Dry Film Thickness Wet Film Thickness Theoretical Coverage
Minimum 75 µm 129 µm 7.7 m2/litre
Maximum 150 µm 258 µm 3.9 m2/litre
Practical coverage depends on the application method, painting conditions and the shape and roughness of the surface to be coated



Drying Times


Product Data
Applied to 75 microns DFT 10℃ 23℃ 35℃
Dust Free   40 min 15 min 10 min
Hard Dry   2.5 hr 1.5 hr 45 mins
Overcoating Minimum See Product Notes
Maximum Indefinite if clean and sound
Drying and recoating times are related to the film thickness, temperature, the relative humidity of the air and ventilation



Surface Preparation


  • All surfaces to be coated should be dry and cleaned as necessary to remove all oil, grease, salts, weld flux or other contamination
  • Where necessary, remove weld spatter and grind smooth all sharp edges and weld seams
  • Blast clean to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007), surface profile 50-75 microns



Mixing


  • Must be mixed thoroughly by using a mechanical agitator before use
  • Agitate periodically to ensure paint remains homogeneous



Thinner




Application Conditions


  • Only apply in conditions of good ventilation which must be maintained during drying and curing
  • 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 3°C above the dew point
  • Paint temperature should ideally be at a minimum of 15ºC



Application Methods


  • Airless Spray: Output fluid pressure at tip 2000-2500 psi, tip Size 17-19 thou (0.43-0.48 mm)
  • Thinning of the coating is not recommended as this will reduce the build qualities
  • Application by brush/roller will result in a reduced film thickness and is recommended only for small areas of touch up/remedial work



Product Notes


  • Overcoating:
    • May be overcoated with itself or other products from the ViterLac, ViterChlor or ViterThane range
    • When the primer has been applied to 75 microns DFT, allow a minimum of 4 hours at 23ºC before overcoating with ViterLac intermediates/finishes or ViterThane PLS/PLV
    • Allow longer intervals if applying at lower temperatures and higher film builds
  • The compatibility and suitability of overcoating etc. should be confirmed prior to application
  • In common with most alkyd primers, this product is not recommended for extended exterior exposure, exposure in aggressive or coastal locations, or for immersion - epoxy primers are preferred for these conditions - please consult our Technical Department on 0113 2455450 (option 2) or send a message to [email protected] for more information
  • Some shades may contain lead based colourants and these are labelled (L)



Health & Safety


  • Containers are provided with safety labels which should be observed
  • Further information about hazardous influences and protection are detailed in individual Product Safety Data Sheets
