All surfaces to be coated must be clean, dry and free of contaminants. Before application, all surfaces must be assessed and prepared in accordance with ISO 8504:2019.
Prior to application of Ceilcote 140 Flakeline, all surfaces shall be assessed and a suitable primer applied.
Steel substrates: if in immersion or damp or elevated temperature service, this product shall be applied over surfaces blast cleaned to Sa3 (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC SP5 or NACE #1 and coated with a suitable primer. Surface roughness requirement not less than 75 µm (3 mil).
Concrete substrates: Ceilcote 140 Flakeline is not suitable for application on concrete.
| Mixing | Ceilcote 140 Flakeline is a multi-component product; its correct mixing ratio and pot life must be strictly observed. |

(1) Stir the base (Component A) with a power stirrer.
(2) Mix all of the curing agent (Component B) with the base (Component A) and stir thoroughly with a power stirrer.
If FG-1 dye is to be used, it shall be mixed with Component A prior to addition of Component B to obtain a consistent colour. Do not mix more coating than can be used within the recommended pot life.

| Interruption of work | Do not leave material in hoses, guns or spray equipment. Flush all equipment thoroughly with Ceilcote T410 / International GTA203. Use immediately after mixing; if the pot life is exceeded, discard and remix. |
Once mixed, apply until all the mixed paint is used.
| Cleaning | Clean all equipment with T-410 solvent immediately after use. The frequency of cleaning depends on the quantity sprayed, temperature and time, including all interruptions. |

This datasheet provides a brief guide to the use of Ceilcote 140 Flakeline. Requirements for specific projects depend on the end use and service conditions of the tank or vessel. Always consult the International Protective Coatings department to confirm the suitability of Ceilcote 140 Flakeline with the product stored.
Always follow the detailed coating specification recommended by the International Paint Protective Coatings division.
Before using the relevant Ceilcote system, read the detailed Application Guide.
Ceilcote 140 Flakeline is resistant to most acids, alkalis and solvents. For specific chemical resistance, contact International Industrial Coatings.
The Ceilcote 140 Flakeline system, with appropriate compatible primers, may be used in elevated temperature service; for details refer to the relevant Application Guidelines.
Although Ceilcote 140 Flakeline is 100% reactive, actual volume solids may be lower depending on application conditions; International Industrial Coatings recommends an estimated spreading rate value of 90%.
Apply under suitable climatic conditions. The temperature of the surface to be coated shall be between 10 °C (50 °F) and 45 °C (113 °F) and must be at least 3 °C (5 °F) above the dew point. Application shall not proceed when conditions deteriorate, such as when temperature falls or moisture condensation is likely. Dehumidification, air conditioning and/or heating equipment may be required to control environmental conditions.
If Ceilcote 140 Flakeline is applied in a confined maintenance environment, adequate ventilation shall be ensured.
If the recoat interval is exceeded, wipe with styrene to confirm whether recoating is possible. If the surface feels “slightly tacky”, adhesion is acceptable. If it is not softened by styrene, sweep blast or mechanically abrade the surface to obtain a matt, rough surface. Primed surfaces must be dry and free of foreign matter before lining, coating or flooring.
Following correct application procedures, Ceilcote 140 Flakeline may be returned to service after the following intervals: 10 °C (50 °F): 48 h 20 °C (70 °F): 24 h 35 °C (90 °F): 16 h Note: VOC values are typical and intended as a guide only. The value may vary depending on factors such as colour differences and normal manufacturing tolerances.
Although the low-molecular-weight reactive additive becomes part of the film when cured under normal ambient conditions, analysis by EPA Method 24 shows that it also affects the VOC value.
Ceilcote 140 Flakeline is compatible with many Ceilcote primers, linings or coatings. Refer to the technical specification and the Application Guidelines.

This product is intended for professional applicators in industrial use only.
All work, including the application and use of this product, must comply with the relevant national standards, laws and regulations on safety, health and environmental protection.
During application and the subsequent drying period (for common drying times, see the product data sheet), provide adequate ventilation to keep solvent concentrations within safe limits and prevent fire and explosion. Forced ventilation is required in confined spaces. During application and drying, personal ventilation and respiratory protection (e.g. air-fed hood or suitable filter mask) must also be provided. Take the necessary measures to prevent skin and eye contact with the coating (e.g. protective clothing, gloves, goggles, mask, barrier cream).
Before use, read and follow the Material Safety Data Sheet and the Health and Safety section of the application procedure for this product (for two-component coatings, those of the base and curing agent).
If welding or cutting is performed on metal substrate previously coated with this product, dust and fumes will be released; use suitable personal protective equipment and local exhaust ventilation.
The specific safety measures depend on the application method and working environment. If these warnings or instructions are not fully understood or cannot be strictly observed, do not use the product and consult International Paint.
