The performance of this product depends on the degree of surface preparation. Surfaces to be painted must be clean, dry and free of contaminants. Before painting, all surfaces must be assessed and prepared in accordance with ISO 8504:2000.
Accumulations of dirt and soluble salts must be removed. Accumulated dirt is generally removed with a dry bristle brush. Soluble salts should be washed off with fresh water.
Abrasive blasting: if used underwater, Interseal 670HS shall be applied over surfaces blast-cleaned to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP10; if used in atmospheric environments, Interseal 670HS achieves optimum performance when applied over surfaces blast-cleaned to at least Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP6. Surface defects exposed by blasting shall be abraded, filled or otherwise treated. A surface profile of 50–75 µm (2–3 mil) is recommended.
Hand or power tool preparation: clean to St 2 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP2 minimum.
Note: all mill scale must be removed; areas that cannot be suitably prepared by chipping or needle gun must be spot blast cleaned to Sa 2 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP6 minimum. This generally applies to rust grades C or D of this standard.
Ultra-high-pressure water jetting/wet blasting may be applied over surfaces prepared to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC SP6, with flash rust allowed to a standard not lower than HB2½M (see the International Paint hydroblasting standard) or SB2½M (see the International Paint slurry blasting standard). In some cases, application over damp surfaces is possible. For more information, contact International Paint.
Aged coatings: Interseal 670HS is suitable for overcoating on a limited range of aged coatings, which shall be intact and firmly adhered. Loose or flaking coatings shall be removed to a firm film edge. Glossy topcoats may require light abrading to provide an adhesion 'key'. For more information, see the 'Characteristics' section.

| Thinner | International GTA220. | Normally no thinning is required. |
In extreme cases, consult the local technical representative.
Do not thin beyond the requirements of local environmental regulations.
| Cleaner | Use a cleaning solvent that complies with local regulations. Consult the local representative for specific recommendations. |
|---|---|
| Interruption of work | Do not leave paint in hoses, spray guns or spray equipment. Flush all equipment thoroughly with International thinner. |
Mixed paint should not be resealed. If work is interrupted for too long, mix a fresh batch of paint for application.
| Cleaning | All equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with International thinner. Flushing spray equipment periodically during daily work is good practice. Cleaning frequency depends on the volume sprayed, temperature, spraying time, including interruptions, and other factors. |
|---|
Surplus paint and empty containers must be disposed of in accordance with the relevant regional regulations.
For immersion environments, surface preparation to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP10 minimum standard, then apply multiple coats of Interseal 670HS, with a minimum total dry film thickness of 250 µm (10 mils).
For underwater use, colours tinted by the Chromascan system shall not be used for the first coat of the coating system.
Apply by airless spray to achieve the maximum film thickness per coat. Application methods other than airless spray cannot achieve the required film thickness. With air spray, several cross coats are required to achieve the maximum film thickness. At low or high temperatures, special application techniques may be required to achieve the maximum film thickness.
If salt water is used during wet blasting, the treated surface must be thoroughly washed with fresh water before applying Interseal 670HS. Light rust spotting on newly blasted surfaces is acceptable, which is better than a too damp surface. Puddles, stagnant water and standing water must be removed.
Interseal 670HS may be used over suitably sealed or primed concrete surfaces; for further coating system and primer recommendations, contact International Paint Protective Coatings.
Interseal 670HS is suitable for overcoating on intact aged alkyd, epoxy and polyurethane coating systems. However, it is recommended not to apply the product where thermoplastic coatings such as chlorinated rubber and vinyl have previously been used. Consult International Paint for other recommendations.
The surface temperature must always be maintained at least 3 °C (5 °F) above the dew point.
Gloss and surface evenness depend on the application method. Avoid mixing different application methods as far as possible.
As with all epoxy coatings, the product will chalk and fade when exposed to the atmosphere. This does not affect its anticorrosive performance. The actual chalking rate depends on the climatic conditions and is usually limited to a thin surface layer. If the chalked layer is exposed to UV light and intermittent high-velocity water washing, it will erode; only in this case does chalking reduce the anticorrosive performance of the coating.
Premature exposure to standing water may cause colour change, especially for dark colours.
Modified by adding GMA 132 (crushed flint) aggregate, Interseal 670HS can be used as a non-slip deck coating system, then applied on a suitably primed surface. Typical thickness is between 500–1000 µm (20–40 mils). Application should be carried out with suitable large nozzle spray gun (e.g. Sagola 429 or air spray gun with 5-10 mm nozzle). Small areas can be applied by trowel or roller. Alternatively, broadcast technique can be used.
For details, please consult International Paint Industrial Coatings.

To enable rapid curing at temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F), a winter-grade curing agent is also available. However, this curing agent will initially undergo colour change and discolour rapidly under weathering conditions.
Note: VOC values are typical and for guidance only. They may vary with colour and general production 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.
Interseal 670HS is normally applied over suitably prepared steel, but may be used over suitably primed surfaces.
Suitable primers include
| Intercure 200 | Intergard 269 |
|---|---|
| Interplus 356 | Interzinc 315, Interzinc 52E. Where a decorative topcoat is required, the following products are recommended: |
| Interfine 878 | Interfine 979 |
