When used as part of an approved scheme, this product has the following certificates: • Fire resistance - compliance with low flame spread requirements (Exova Warringtonfire) • Fire resistance - "Smoke and toxicity" (Exova Warringtonfire) • Fire resistance - compliance with the Marine Equipment Directive • Food contact - grain cargo (NOHH). Approval by external bodies may depend on formulation and/or manufacturing plant. Consult the local International Paint representative for details.
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.
On newbuildings, remove weld spatter and grind welds and sharp edges smooth where required.
Welds and damaged areas of shop primer must be blast cleaned to Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or prepared with power tools to Pt3 (JSRA SPSS:1984).
Intact, approved shop primer must be clean, dry and free of soluble salts and any other surface contaminants.
Unapproved shop primer must be fully blast cleaned to Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007). In some cases, sweep blasting to a specified International Paint standard (e.g. AS2 or AS3) is acceptable. For specific advice, consult your local International Paint representative.
Major repair abrasive blast cleaning to at least Sa2 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or the International Paint ultra-high pressure water cleaning standard HB2M. If oxidation occurs between blasting and application of Intershield 300HS, the surface shall be re-blasted to the specified pictorial standard.
Surface defects exposed by abrasive blasting must be ground, filled or treated by a suitable method.
In-service maintenance - bare steel and corrosion cleaned by hand or power tool to a minimum of St2 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP2.
All mill scale must be removed. Areas that cannot be suitably treated by scraping or needle gun shall be spot blasted to a minimum of Sa2 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP6. This generally applies to Grade C or Grade D rust under this standard.
Intershield 300HS is suitable for overlap application over most aged coating systems. Loose or flaking coatings shall be removed to sound edges, and Intershield 300HS shall be applied as an overlap of 2–3 cm (1 inch) onto the existing coating. Glossy epoxy and polyurethane may require abrading.
For maintenance, consult International Paint.
For other tank coating projects, consult International Paint for the detailed tank coating procedure to be followed.
For specific advice, consult your local International Paint representative.
Precautions for the marine environment in North America: the following surface preparation standards may be used: SSPC-SP10 instead of Sa2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007); SSPC-SP11 instead of Pt3 (JSRA SPSS:1984); SSPC-SP6 instead of Sa2 (ISO 8501-1:2007); SSPC-SP2 instead of St2 (ISO 8501-1:2007).
The coating is supplied in two containers as one unit. Always mix the entire unit in the supplied ratio. Once mixed, use within the specified pot life.
(1) Stir the base (Component A) with a power mixer.
(2) Mix all of the base (Component A) with the curing agent (Component B) and stir thoroughly with a power mixer.
International GTA220. Under extreme conditions, consult the local representative for application recommendations. Do not thin beyond the limits permitted by local environmental regulations.
Recommended nozzle tip size 0.53–0.78 mm (21–31 thou); total fluid output pressure at the nozzle not less than 211 kg/cm² (3000 psi).
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.
Do not leave paint in hoses, spray guns or spray equipment. Flush all equipment thoroughly with International thinner. Once mixed, paint should not be resealed; if work is interrupted for too long, mix a fresh batch before resuming application.
All equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with International thinner. Flushing spray equipment periodically during the day is good working practice. Cleaning frequency depends on the volume sprayed, temperature and time in use (including delays). Do not exceed the pot life of the paint.
All surplus paint and empty containers must be disposed of in accordance with appropriate local regulations/laws.
If welding or flame cutting is performed on metal coated with this product, dust and fumes will be released; use suitable personal protective equipment and local exhaust ventilation. In North America, follow the instructions in ANSI/ASC Z49.1 “Safety in Welding and Cutting”.
All work related to the application and use of this product must comply with national health, safety and environmental protection standards and regulations.
Before using this product, obtain, read and follow the health and safety information in the Material Safety Data Sheet for the product. Read and observe all precautions in the Material Safety Data Sheet and on the container label. If these warnings and requirements are not fully understood, or cannot be strictly observed, do not use the product. During application and drying of the product, provide adequate ventilation and protective measures to keep solvent vapour concentrations within safe limits, so as to prevent poisoning or oxygen deficiency. Take protective measures to avoid skin and eye contact with the product (e.g. gloves, goggles, face shield, barrier cream). Specific safety measures depend on the application method and working environment.

Prior to recoating, Intershield 300HS coating shall be cleaned with high-pressure fresh water and/or solvent where necessary to ensure removal of all accumulated surface contamination.
Suitable for oil tanker decks under classification society rules.
Intershield 300HS can be applied to substrates at temperatures as low as -10°C, but low-temperature recoating must be considered because other coatings in the system may require higher temperatures to achieve full cure.
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 must be at least 3 °C above the dew point. Unless otherwise specifically instructed, raise the paint temperature to between 21 and 27 °C before mixing and application to achieve optimum application performance. Unmixed paint (in sealed containers) must be stored protectively as specified in the Storage section of this product data sheet. The technical and application data given here are intended as general guidance for establishing an application procedure. Test results are obtained in a controlled laboratory environment, and International Paint does not claim that the published test results, or any other test results, accurately represent results obtained in all site environments. Because application, environmental and design parameters vary widely, care must be exercised in coating selection, performance verification and use.
