Interior Drum Lacquer

Interior Drum Lacquer is modified epoxy phenolic based baking lacquer containing pigments of high opacity and color retention, used for metal drum lining

Properties and Areas of Use

– Excellent gloss
– Excellent mar resistance
– Tough & flexible
-Excellent adhesion to bare steel
– Excellent resistance to food stuff and wide range aggressive chemicals such as fuel, acids, alkalis and organic solvents.
– Used as lining paint for the internal surfaces of metal drums which used for packing food,vegetable oils, nectars, etc. because of its inert behavior which means that it doesn’t affect or affected by food and complies with FDA F175.300.

Suitable Surfaces

– Mild steel, galvanized and zinc coated steel, aluminium and most non-ferrous metals

Bare Steel:

Objects to be coated must be dry, clean and free from dust, oils, grease, water and any other contaminations may affect adhesion. Objects to be coated must be chemically washed and dried before application.

Application Conditions

Substrate should be clean and free from any contamination. Hot dry air furnaces are recommended.

Application Information

Thinning should only take place after the material has been thoroughly mixed.

Conventional Air Spraying

– Thin with Thinner Colorama 913
– Spray at 20-22 sec/ Ford cup 4.
– Apply air atomizing pressure of 3.5 atm.

Cleaning Thinner

Equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with Thinner Colorama 913.

Drying time:

Drying takes place in hot dry air furnaces at 200ºC for 15 min.

Storage:

Keep the containers in a dry, cool, well ventilated space and away from source of heat and ignition.Containers must be kept tightly closed.

Handling:

Handle with care. Stir well before use.
