*The overcoating interval depends on subsequent exposure. As the film may chalk or pick up other contaminants after prolonged exposure to a polluted environment, the existing coating surface shall be abraded; loose impurities such as grease shall be washed off with high-pressure fresh water or wiped with thinner, and the surface allowed to dry before overcoating.

*Notes

- Adequate and continuous ventilation must be maintained during application and curing of the coating.

- When applying at ambient air or substrate surface temperatures below 5 °C, pre-warm the mixed paint to above 10 °C.

Substrate preparation

Metal surfaces should be free of oil and water; concrete surfaces should be confirmed fully cured and dry, with concrete moisture ≤4%; all surfaces to be coated should have loose debris removed with a high-pressure air gun beforehand, individual oil spots wiped with solvent, ensuring the surface is free of oil and water.

Precautions

1. Before mixing the two components, stir the base thoroughly with a power tool, then add the curing agent and mix uniformly. Adjust the thinner amount according to application requirements and temperature, and mix thoroughly.

2. During application and curing, the substrate temperature shall be above 5 °C and at least 3 °C above the dew point, and the relative humidity shall not exceed 75%. Temperature and relative humidity shall be measured on the substrate close to the work area.
