Note: 1. In confined spaces or restricted spaces at low temperature, ventilation is necessary to remove volatilised solvent and promote film formation during application and drying.
2. Stir the base with an electric stirrer to a uniform state, then thoroughly stir all of the curing agent with the base. Finally add an appropriate amount of thinner and mix thoroughly.
3. Excessive solvent may reduce sag resistance. 4. Mix only the amount of paint that can be used within the specified pot life.
5. *(1) Shade netting is recommended over the coating surface to avoid direct sunlight through manholes or other openings.
If the coating surface has been directly exposed to sunlight, the above “**” indicates the maximum recoat interval
