All surfaces to be coated shall be clean, dry and free of contaminants. Before coating, all surfaces shall be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504:2000. New steel: blast clean to Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007). If temporary protection is needed, a suitable shop primer may be used. Before final spraying, damaged shop primer and contaminants accumulated during storage and fabrication shall be thoroughly removed. Repair: remove grease etc. with a suitable cleaning agent. Wash off salts and other contaminants with (high-pressure) fresh water. When used as a transition coat: blast clean or power tool clean to remove all rust and other loose material. Smooth edges and sweep away residue.
1. During application, ensure adequate ventilation and exhaust, keep away from sources of ignition, and wear protective equipment such as masks and gloves; maintain adequate ventilation also during curing. 2. This product should not be used below -5 °C to ensure normal application and curing; the substrate surface and paint temperature should also be above this limit. When the ambient temperature is below 15 °C, the paint temperature should be kept between 20 °C and 25 °C to ensure application performance. The application surface should be dry and clean, with the surface temperature above the dew point to avoid condensation. 3. The film thickness can be adjusted according to the purpose and location of use; this will change the spreading rate and affect drying time and overcoating interval. The typical dry film range is 50–80 µm; thinner may be needed for good film formation. 4. The overcoating interval is related to the future exposure environment: if the maximum overcoating interval is exceeded, roughen the surface to ensure intercoat adhesion. The surface must be completely clean to ensure adhesion between films, especially for paints with long overcoating intervals. Surfaces used in polluted environments must be washed with high-pressure fresh water, and recoating is only possible after the surface dries. 5. When work is interrupted, do not leave paint in the hose, spray gun or spray equipment. Flush all equipment thoroughly with thinner. 6. All equipment shall be cleaned with thinner immediately after use. Flushing the spray equipment periodically during daily work is good practice. The cleaning frequency depends on spray volume, temperature, spraying time and interruptions. 7. Leftover paint and empty cans shall be disposed of according to local regulations.

1. For the coating and its recommended thinners, see the safety sheets and the safety data of the relevant materials. This is a solvent-borne coating; avoid inhaling spray mist and solvent vapours, and avoid exposing skin and eyes and contact with uncured paint as far as possible. 2. All work related to the application and use of this product must comply with the relevant national health, safety and environmental standards and regulations. 3. If welding or flame cutting is required on metal coated with this product, dust and fumes will be generated; use appropriate personal protective equipment and adequate local ventilation. 4. If in doubt about the suitability of this product, consult the company.
