Technical Information

Application

Consumption

Coverage

Theoretical yield per coat for :

Porous surfaces: 50 - 75 ft² (4.6 - 7 m²)/gal/coat.

Smooth, filled surfaces: 140 - 160 ft² (13 - 14.8 m²)/gal/coat.

Recommended ‘wet’ film thickness: 10 mils (0.25 mm)/coat. Recommended ‘dry’ film thickness: 6 mils (0.15 mm)/coat. Normal coating system is two coats at a total dry film thickness of 12 mils*. Consumption is dependent on porosity of substrate. In addition, allowance must be made for surface profile,unavoidable variation in applied film thickness, loss and waste.

*One coat coverage recommended only for recoating over existing coatings

Application Steps

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Water soluble prior to drying. Clean tools and containers with water prior to drying. Cured material can be removed mechanically.
