When used as part of an approved scheme, the product holds the following certificates: the product is approved by the following classification societies in compliance with the International Convention on the Control of Harmful Anti-fouling Systems on Ships, 2001 (AFS 2001): • Bureau Veritas • DNV GL • Lloyd's Register. For details, consult the local representative.
For the paint system best suited to the surface to be protected, consult your local International Paint representative.
Applied in accordance with the standard Worldwide Marine Specifications.
All surfaces to be coated must be clean, dry and free of contaminants.
Wash with high-pressure or ordinary fresh water as appropriate, and remove all oil, grease, soluble contaminants and other foreign matter in accordance with the SSPC-SP1 solvent cleaning standard.
Newbuilding: Intercept 8500 LPP should always be applied over a recommended primer. The primer surface must be dry and free of contaminants, and Intercept 8500 LPP must be applied within the specified recoat interval (refer to the relevant product data sheet). Damaged areas should be prepared to the specified standard (e.g. Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007)) and primed before applying Intercept 8500 LPP.
Refit: Intercept 8500 LPP should always be applied over a recommended primer. The primer surface must be dry and free of contaminants, and Intercept 8500 LPP must be applied within the specified recoat interval (refer to the relevant product data sheet).
Damaged areas should be prepared to the specified standard (e.g. SSPC-SP10) and primed before applying Intercept 8500 LPP.
Repair, Intercept 8500 LPP over itself: as soon as the vessel enters the dock and before it dries, wash the whole area with dense high-pressure fresh water (3000 lb/in², 211 kg/cm²) from a fan spray gun held close to the surface. Refer to the recommended anti-corrosive primer system and apply Intercept 8500 LPP within the recoat interval specified for the primer (refer to the relevant primer product data sheet).
Applying Intercept 8500 LPP over International Paint tin-free antifouling, International Paint Intersmooth SPC antifouling or a competitor's antifouling: for special advice, consult the local International Paint representative.
This coating is a single-component product; stir thoroughly with a power mixer before application.
Normally no thinning is required. Under extreme conditions, consult your local representative for application advice. Do not thin beyond the limits of local environmental regulations.
Recommended nozzle size 0.54–0.8 mm (21–31 thou); total output fluid pressure at the nozzle not less than 190 kg/cm² (2700 psi)
Conventional spray application is not recommended.
Brush application is recommended for small areas only. Several coats may be required to achieve the specified film thickness.
Roller application is recommended for small areas only. Several coats may be required to achieve the specified film thickness.

The service life of the coating is directly proportional to the applied thickness. Product performance depends on achieving the specified film thickness.
Intercept 8500 LPP changes colour slightly after immersion.
Recoat data are for guidance only and depend on local climatic and environmental conditions. For specific advice, consult your local International Paint representative.
Apply in good weather. The temperature of the surface to be coated shall be at least 3 °C above the dew point. Unless otherwise instructed, keep the paint at 21 °C before mixing and application for optimum performance. Unmixed paint (in tightly closed containers) shall be stored as specified in the 'Storage' section of this data sheet.
