If brush or roller application is used, several coats may be required to achieve the specified dry film thickness. For tank linings, brush and roller application must be limited to touch-up, repair areas or minor repairs. Spray parameters are indicative and may be adjusted to suit site conditions. Pressure figures apply to the material at 20 °C. (*For other application methods, consult the company representative.)

| Theoretical Spreading Rate | 2 m²/L | 0.8 m²/L | 1.5 m²/L |
Depending on the end use and service area, the product may be specified at film thicknesses other than those indicated. This will alter the spreading rate, drying and curing times and recoat interval. To achieve optimum performance, avoid excessive film thickness.
- Material temperature should be between 15 °C/59 °F and 25 °C/77 °F. If the temperature exceeds 25 °C/77 °F, add Retarder 99190.
In addition, curing is accompanied by shrinkage. Therefore, the actual solids content and spreading rate are lower than the above values. When estimating coverage, an actual solids content of 85% is recommended, depending on the application and curing conditions.
