Application Instructions

Surface Preparation:

New Steel - Surface must be dry and free of contamination. Remove all weld spatter and grind all rough welds and edges to smooth contour.

Previously Painted Surfaces - Must be free of oil, grease, or other contamination. For best results, spot blast exposed areas to be primed. Power tool brushing may be used for minor touch up.

Spray:

Thoroughly mix coating prior to applying to substrate. Surface shall be dry, above 60° F and 5° above the dew point, and free of rust bloom. Double lap all welds, seams, corners, and edges to insure proper thickness. Make even parallel passes with 50% overlap to provide uniformity.
This product has been formulated to be used at full strength. If reduction is required, water should be used.
