Application Details

Theoretical spreading rate at recommended dry film build Assumes no losses. Two coats are recommended each with a spreading rate of 16m² per litre at recommended 20 micrometres dry film build corresponding to an overall rate of 8m² per litre at 44 micrometres dry film build. Practical spreading rates will vary depending on such factors as application conditions & surface roughness.

Theoretical volume solids 38%

Drying time: Touch dry in 20 minutes. Recoat after two hours at 25⁰C & 50⁰C relative humidity. Under colder or more humid conditions longer time may be necessary.

Surface preparation: Surfaces to be painted should be clean & in sound condition to accept the finish. Remove grease, oil etc with mineral turpentine or white spirits. Efflorescence or mould on masonry or concrete surfaces must be healed. Timber surfaces require no priming. Other surfaces must be prepared and or primed in accordance with the requirements of the chosen system.

Application: Apply full, even coats to the prepared surface.

Brush or roller Apply directly from the container. If necessary, reduce up to 100ml water per litre with water to ease application. Dry, porous surfaces & rough sawn timber may be dampened down prior to application.

Conventional spray : Up to 100ml per litre of water to aid atomisation. Apply wet, even coats.

Airless spray : Reduce up to 100ml per litre of water to aid atomisation. Use tip orifice of 375-425 micrometres (15-17 thou) at 13.8 Mpa (2000 psi)

Equipment clean up : Water

Safety Precautions

Provide adequate ventilation during use. Airflow should be adequate to ensure a comfortable working atmosphere. When spraying, comply with the provisions of the State Spray Painting Regulations.

Do not paint at temperatures below 10⁰C during the drying period. RAIN OR DEW DURING THE DRYING PERIOD WILL DAMAGE THE FILM. If conditions are hot & windy, cool the surface by hosing & paint the cool, damp surface. To minimise clogging, use two brushes, soaking one in water & exchanging at regular intervals. Occasionally an apparently sound old paint will lose adhesion when recoated, particularly if the new paint is darker in colour & so reaches higher temperatures.

To avoid this check its adhesion by cutting through the film with a razor blade or trimming knife, press cellulose tape firmly across the cut & rip it off. If the old paint comes off with the tape it should be removed before repainting. Use nylon brushes. Do not overspread or exceed 16m² / litre per coat. Do not apply to exposed surfaces when rain threatens.

Transportation sizes available 1litre, 4 litre, 10litre & 20litre. Transportation weight 1.3kg/litre. No special transportation requirements. Non flammable.
