| APPLICATION DETAILS | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Application conditions | All surfaces must be dry. The temperature of the ambient air, surface or paint should not fall below +10ºC during application and drying. Relative humidity should not exceed 80%. The surface temperature of the steel should remain at least 3ºC above the dew point. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Preparation | Oil, grease, salts and dirt are removed by appropriate means. (ISO 12944-4)
Steel surfaces: Blast clean to grade Sa2½. (ISO 8501-1) If blast cleaning is not possible, phosphating is recommended for cold rolled steel to improve adhesion. Zinc surfaces: Sweep blast clean with mineral abrasives, e.g. quartz sand, to an even roughness. (SaS, SFS 5873) If sweep blasting is not possible, the surface should be roughened by hand abrading or washed with PANSSARIPESU detergent. Hot dip galvanized surfaces are recommended to be painted with a mist coat (paint thinned 25 - 30 %) before the actual priming. Aluminium surfaces: Sweep blast clean with none-metallic abrasives to an even roughness. (SaS, SFS 5873) If sweep blasting is not possible, the surface should be roughened by hand abrading or washed with MAALIPESU detergent. Primed surfaces: Oil, grease, salt and dirt are removed from the surface by appropriate means. Repair any damage to the primer coat. Note the overcoating time of primer. (ISO 12944-4) Concrete surfaces: The surface must dry and at least 4 weeks old. The relative humidity of the concrete should not exceed 97%. Remove any splashes and unevennesses by grinding. Remove laitance and form oil from concrete castings by sanding or blast cleaning. Any cracks, crevices and voids must be repaired with a mixture of Temafloor 200 and fine dry quartz sand. Application: 2 - 3 x Temacoat RM 40 |
