Suitable Surfaces

 Prior to application of a compatible primer, the steel substrate must be abrasive blast cleaned in accordance with standard ISO 8501-1:1988. Cleanliness Sa 2.5. Roughness 50 to 85 microns Ry5.
Coating should occur before degradation of the surface takes place (normally within 4 hours). If oxidation takes place, the steel must be re-prepared. The surface must be dry and free of dust, salts, grease and any other contaminants immediately before coating.

Bare Steel:

Cleanliness: Blast – cleaning to Sa2 1/2 (ISO-8501-1:2007). Power tool cleaning to min. St2 (ISO 8501- 1:2007) may be acceptable, subject to exposure conditions.

Shop primed Steel:

Clean, dry and undamaged approved shop primer

Coated Surfaces:

Clean, dry and undamaged compatible primer .

Other Surfaces:

For aluminum substrates , thorough washing and sweeping with a nonmetallic blast medium is required.

Application Conditions

Substrate temperature can be 15°C or above for application and during cure and a minimum of 5°C above the dew point. Adequate dry air ventilation is recommended for optimum drying.

Drying time:

Drying times are affected by air ventilation, temperature, film thickness and number of coats.
Substrate Temp.                                                 10° C                  25° C               40° C
Surface Dry                                                         45 min.              30 min           20 min.
Through Dry                                                        90 min.             60 min.          45 min.
Dry to recoat, minimum                                      8 h                     4 h                     3 h
The given data serve as guideline only. The actual drying time differs according to film thickness ,ventilation, humidity and underlying paint system.

Typical paint system:

PRIMABUILD – ST 1 x 100 µ
INTUPOX 1 x 2000-5000 µ (Depending on Hp/A Value)
URELUX 1 x 50 µ
