Publication dateJuly 2024 NOA 60 HS-C NOA 60HS-C Epoxy Paint High-quality pure epoxy paint with excellent abrasion resistance; health, safety and environmental factors were fully considered in product design. Suitable for multiple uses, especially for ship crude oil tanks, product oil tanks, ballast tanks, void spaces, etc. This product is certified according to IMO MSC.215(82) ballast tank PSPC and MSC.288(87) crude oil tanker cargo oil tank PSPC requirements, and has obtained type approval certificates.

(1) Yellow — visual film thickness (SI) technology. This product has a unique patented visual film thickness (SI) technology that lets the applicator visually confirm correct film thickness during application by observing whether the film colour changes to a full bright yellow.

Steel pre-treatment

Remove weld spatter, smooth welds, and grind sharp edges to a radius of at least 2 mm, or use the three-pass grinding technique or similar treatment.

Surface cleaning

All surfaces to be coated must be clean, dry and free of contaminants.

Wash with high-pressure fresh water or fresh water to remove all oil, grease, soluble salts and foreign matter.

Soluble salt limit expressed as NaCl≤50 mg/m² sodium chloride.

Dust of size classes “3”, “4” or “5” with a distribution rating of “1”.

Finer dust visible on the surface to be coated without magnification must be removed (ISO 8502-31993)

Shop primer

Type-approved shop primer, compatible with NOA 60 HS-C, according to MSC215(82) and MSC.288(87) PSPC standards, blast cleaned to Sa2.5

(ISO8501-12007), with a surface profile in the range 30–75 µm (ISO 8503-1/2:1988).

Tested shop primer: clean by sweep blasting, high-pressure water washing or other equivalent methods.

Welded areas, if the shop primer is rusted or damaged, must be blast cleaned to Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-12007)
Shop primer without type approval must be blast cleaned to Sa 2 (ISO 8501-12007), remove at least 70% of the intact shop primer.
Welded areas, if the shop primer is rusted or damaged, must be blast cleaned to Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-12007).
The surface roughness of any blast-cleaned area should be in the range 30–75 µm (ISO 8503-1/21988).

Repair

NOA 60HS-C can be sprayed immediately after stripe coating, while remaining within the specified maximum coating interval. Once the maximum recoat interval is exceeded, the surface shall be roughened with power tools before recoating.

After erection

Erection weld seams and adjacent areas must be blast cleaned to Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or cleaned with power tools to St 3 (ISO 8501-1:2007).

Inner bottom

Damage not exceeding 20% of the total area may be power-tool cleaned to St3 (ISO 8501-12007).
Where the connected damaged area exceeds 25 m² or more than 20% of the total tank area, blast cleaning to Sa2.5 (ISO 8501-12007) is required. Underside of deckhead
Damage not exceeding 3% of the total area may be power-tool cleaned to St3 (ISO 8501-12007).
Where the connected damaged area exceeds 25 m² or more than 3% of the total tank area, blast cleaning to Sa2.5 (ISO 8501-12007)

Mixing

The paint is supplied as a complete unit of two separately packaged components; mix in the supplied ratio.

Once mixed, use within the specified pot life.

(1) Stir the base with a power tool. (2) Pour the curing agent into the base and mix, stirring thoroughly with a power tool

Application Methods

Airless Spray

Gun tip size0.53 ~ 0.79 mm (GRACO 521-531,621-631)
Spray fan angle45–55° (repair); 30–35°
Output pressure150–250 kg/cm². Brush/roller: for small-area touch-up and stripe coating only.

Mixing ratio by volume

Base 5.67 / curing agent 1

Pot life

12 h (5 °C)5 h (20 °C) 3 h (30 °C) 1.5 h (40 °C) At high temperatures the pot life after mixing will be shortened, therefore avoid mixing excessive quantities at the same time under these conditions.

Application steps

The NOA 60 HS-C two-coat system shall be applied by two-coat stripe coating and two-coat spraying.

Touch-up

This product has high solids content; two touch-up coats achieve the specified film thickness. Use the following touch-up technique: 1. Load the brush or roller fully each time. Rollers may be used on scallop openings, rat holes and similar, but not on free edges or welds.

2. Apply light pressure for touch-up so more paint remains on the surface; repeated heavy pressure only spreads the paint thinly and aerates the film, which must be avoided as far as possible.

3. For rough, back-run welds at scallop openings, draw the loaded tool edge-to-edge across the weld so that paint penetrates the weld pores.

4. Pre-coating of difficult-to-spray areas is generally essential, such as rough welds, back-run welds, free edges, scallop openings, drain holes, air holes, dead corners, stiffeners and brackets.

Although NOA 60 HS-C has better flexibility than other conventional epoxy coatings, good coating practice should still be followed: do not apply excessively thick films on stress welds. Pre-coating should be avoided at locations prone to spray overlap, such as corners or square-edge weld structures.

NOA 60 HS-C may be spray-applied immediately after pre-coating, provided the specified maximum overcoating interval is maintained.
