Application Instructions

Surface Preparation:

All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry, and free of contaminants. Before painting, all surfaces should be assessed and prepared according to ISO 8504:1992 standards. This product must be applied over the recommended anti-corrosive coating, and the primed surface should be dry and free of any contamination. Areas with peeling or damage should be cleaned to meet the specified standard Sa2.5 (ISO 8501-1:1988) or SSPC-SP6 for sandblasting, or SSPC SP11 for power tool cleaning, and then primed before applying this product. The substrate temperature should not be lower than 5°C and should be at least 3°C above the dew point temperature.

Mixing:

This product is packaged in two cans to form one unit. Each time, a complete unit must be mixed in the provided ratio. Once mixed, the product must be used within the specified pot life. (1) Stir the base material (A) with a powered stirrer. (2) Mix all curing agent (B) with the base material (A) using a powered stirrer.

The above data is for reference only. Actual drying times and recoating intervals may vary depending on film thickness, ventilation conditions, humidity, underlying paint, pre-assembly/disassembly requirements, and mechanical strength.

Tool Cleaning: Clean all tools with BTA thinner after use.

Safety: Use with caution. Pay attention to safety information on the product label before and during use. Comply with safety regulations set by national or local authorities. Avoid inhaling solvent vapors and direct contact with paint on the skin and eyes. In case of skin contact, wash with appropriate cleanser, soap, and water. In case of eye contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention. Take fire prevention and environmental protection measures. Use this product only in well-ventilated areas.

Precautions:

• Only apply this product in conditions where the temperature is above 5°C, and application and curing can proceed normally.
• The maximum relative humidity during the curing process is 80%, ideally between 40-60%.
• The application surface must be dry, clean, and have a temperature above the dew point to prevent condensation.
• Adequate ventilation should be provided during application in confined spaces and during drying.
• To prevent moisture condensation, the substrate surface temperature should be at least 3°C above the dew point.
• Avoid application in rainy, snowy, or foggy weather.

Mix according to the packaging label ratios and mix thoroughly before use.

Use the mixed paint within the recommended time frame, as exceeding this time can lead to gelation and render the paint unusable. The usable time may decrease with higher temperatures.

Before applying the next coat, remove oil, condensation, welding spatter, and dust from the surface of the previous coat.

Drying time is influenced by temperature, humidity, and film thickness.

Recoating intervals depend on environmental conditions. If the maximum recoating interval is exceeded, the surface must be roughened to ensure interlayer adhesion.

Store the paint in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse, away from heat sources and direct sunlight.

Applicators should wear appropriate protective gear, and the construction site and storage area should have firefighting equipment. No smoking or open flames should be allowed to prevent fires.

This product is intended for professional use.
