EPICON ZINC RICH PRIMER B-2 is a two-component primer formulated mainly from metallic zinc, epoxy resin and hardener.
It is fast-drying and provides adequate preliminary protection for blast- or shot-cleaned steel plates. The primer is compatible with almost any coating (except oil-based resin coatings, vinyl coatings and inorganic coatings).
This coating has good workability and high adhesion with almost all other coatings.
Therefore this product can be used as a repair coating.

| Repair and maintenance | Remove oil and grease. Remove salts and other contaminants with high-pressure clean water, then dry |
| completely. Remove damaged areas by abrasive to at least Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1 | 2007) or with power |
| by power tool to St3 (ISO 8501-1 | 2007). |
| Rinse with water | Consult your CMP representative for advice. |
The type and degree depend on the actual condition of the material and the required performance.
Good results can be achieved on lightly corroded steel, even on semi-dry surfaces.
Use standards consistent with the Worldwide Marine Specifications.

Note: 1. To remove the volatilised solvent and promote film formation during application and film formation, ventilation is necessary.
2. Stir the base with a power mixer until uniform, then thoroughly mix the entire base and hardener. Finally add an appropriate amount of thinner and mix thoroughly.
3. The wet film thickness is for reference only (cannot be measured).
4. If overcoating this product with epoxy at block ends (about 200 mm width), or overcoating this product with epoxy for repair, a recoat interval of at least 1 hour (at 20 °C) is recommended.
5. Use at -5 °C is feasible but requires a longer curing time. Full cure requires a temperature rise.
6. For PSPC use, refer to the PSPC product data sheet.
7. Density, VOC content and volume solids are theoretical values without thinner. Values may vary with colour, production process, local regulations, etc.
