If brush or roller application is used, multiple coats are required to achieve the specified dry film thickness. Additional thinning may be required to reduce dry spray at high temperatures. Do not thin components separately — thinning may be carried out after mixing. Keep thinning to a minimum. Additional thinning may be required at low paint temperatures, which will result in lower film thickness and slower drying. Spray parameters are indicative and may be adjusted according to site conditions. Pressure values apply to the material at 20 °C. (*Consult a company representative if other application methods are required!).

To achieve optimum performance, avoid excessive film thickness. 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. The practical consumption factor may vary with application conditions, equipment and workmanship. Checking paint consumption against area improves film thickness control.
- If brush or roller application is used, more coats are required to achieve the specified dry film thickness.
