  • Agitate periodically during use to ensure product remains homogeneous

Mixing Ratio

  • Base - 5 parts by volume
  • Hardener - 1 part by volume



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
  • Only apply this product when the above conditions can be maintained throughout the critical application and drying/curing process
  • Paint temperature should ideally be at a minimum of 15ºC



Application Methods


  • Airless Spray: Output fluid pressure at tip 2200-2500 psi, Tip Size: 13-17 thou (0.33-0.43mm)
  • This product is suitable for application by brush or roller, but due to its fast drying properties intricate structures should be avoided
  • The addition of 5-10% of 1737 Thinner is recommended for best results when spraying. Metallic shades should be applied without thinning



Product Notes

  • Contains isocyanates – refer to Safety Data Sheet
  • Metallic shades should be applied to 50 microns maximum dry film thickness to achieve the best appearance and should be applied over a suitable undercoat, viscosity and solids content are lower than for standard colours
