Solvent-free Surface-tolerant Epoxy Abrasion-resistant Aluminium Paint (0JK)
This is a two-component, polyamine-cured surface-tolerant epoxy coating. A surface-tolerant, solvent-free, high-build product. It contains aluminium pigment, improving the protective effect.
Very suitable for early immersion. Specially used for areas where ideal surface preparation cannot or need not be achieved. Provides long-term anti-corrosion protection in highly corrosive environments.
In atmospheric and immersed environments it can be used as a primer, intermediate coat, topcoat or single-coat system. Suitable for suitably prepared carbon steel and aged coated surfaces.
General:
Mainly for maintenance and repair.
Marine coatings:
Hull exterior, exterior and interior areas, including ballast water tanks. Suitable for ballast water tanks on newbuildings.
Industrial protective coatings:
Recommended for offshore environments, including splash zones, refineries, power stations, bridges, buildings, mining equipment and general structural steel.

At the above temperatures, protective performance is unaffected, but appearance may be affected.
Note: this coating can withstand different immersion temperatures, depending on the specific chemical and whether immersion is continuous or intermittent. Heat resistance is affected by the coating system as a whole.
When used with other coatings, ensure that all coatings in the system have similar heat resistance.
Depending on the actual exposure conditions in service, this product may be used with various primers and topcoats. Some reference systems are listed below. For specific systems, contact JOTUN.

In some markets, the stated shelf life may be shortened to comply with local legal requirements. The above is the minimum shelf life; thereafter, testing is required to confirm quality remains acceptable.
For professional use only. Applicators and workers must be trained, experienced, capable and equipped to mix, stir and apply the coating correctly in accordance with JOTUN's technical documents. Applicators and workers must wear appropriate personal protective equipment when using this product. This guidance is provided based on current product knowledge.
Any proposed modification to suit site conditions must be approved by the responsible JOTUN representative before use.
Read the safety warnings on the container packaging. Use in well-ventilated conditions. Avoid inhaling spray mist and avoid skin contact. In case of accidental splashes on skin, wash immediately with a suitable cleaner, soap and water. In case of eye contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention immediately.
When used primarily as a primer or antifouling, products may show slight colour variation from batch to batch. Likewise, fading and chalking may occur when exposed to sunlight.
Gloss and colour retention of topcoats depend on the colour type, the surrounding environment such as temperature and UV intensity, and application quality.
