Surface Preparation: Proper surface preparation is critical to the long-term performance of this product. The exact requirements for surface preparation vary with the severity of the application, expected service life, and the initial substrate conditions. Minimum preparation is mechanical preparation St2/St3. Optimum preparation will provide a surface thoroughly cleaned of all contaminants and roughened to an angular profile between 75-125 μm (3-5 mil). This is normally achieved by initial cleaning and degreasing and then abrasive blasting to a cleanliness of Near White Metal (Sa.21/2), followed by removal of residual abrasive blast residues from the surface to be coated.
Mixing: Thoroughly mix Activator into Base with mixing stick or drill with low-speed mixing blade scraping sides and bottom of container or mixing board. Mix by Weight 2-parts Base to 1-part Activator. Mix thoroughly to produce an even colored and streak-free material. THINNING: Never thin.
Application:
Brush: medium to sff bristles of sufficient quality so they do not shed or become embedded in the coating (epoxy-bonded bristles are preferred). Trim or tape to a length less than 1”.
Roller: use a high-quality roller with 1/8” nap.
Airless Spray: 45:1 rao or higher, with p size 529–535, 5,000 psi pressure or greater. Temperature: 50°C (122°F).
Plural Component Airless: Graco XP70 or equivalent, heated to 43°C (109°F).
Robotic Application: robotic coating application on internal circumferential welds using a rotary atomizer
Application Temperature: Keep between 55 to 95ºF (17 to 35ºC). Substrate: keep between 45 to 105ºF (7 to 40ºC). the difference in temperature of the substrate and the material should never exceed 10ºF, 5ºC. Substrate shall be a minimum of 5ºF (3ºC) above dew point. Do not apply if relative humidity exceeds 90%. If necessary, heat the metal prior to surface preparation using electric heater or heat lamp. Never use gas, oil, or kerosene heaters as they will leave a greasy residue on metal surface. For best results keep all material in warm area overnight (75ºF+) for ease of mixing.
FDA Compliance: This product complies with FDA regulations, for direct food contact specifically FDA 21 CFR 175.300 and FDA 21 CFR 175.105.
