Application guide

Surface Preparation

Before application, remove all oil, grease, dust and other contaminants from the surface. * Steel: blast clean to Sa 2.5 or clean with power tools to St 3.

Application method

Brush application, spray (conventional or airless). Airless spray: nozzle orifice 432–533 µm (0.017–0.021″); spray pressure 13.5–29.2 MPa; spray angle 30–90°. Thinning: max. 25% (max. 50% when used as shop primer).

Mixing

Base EZ175(WM)-A : Hardener EZ175(WM)-B = 4:1 (by volume). Mix completely 30 min before use; stir the base uniformly before adding the hardener.

Thinner

Thinner No. 024. Do not thin the two components separately; the mixture shall be thinned.

Application conditions

The surface to be coated must be completely clean and dry. Relative humidity must not exceed 85%, and the surface temperature must be at least 2.7 °C (5 °F) above the dew point to avoid condensation.

Film thickness

Primer for long-term protection: dry film thickness 35–75 µm in one coat. Film thickness may be adjusted according to the application area and use.
