MIXING & THINNING

Mix the Part A and part B separately, then add the Part B to the Part A slowly and mix thoroughly.
Mixing
The coating should stand approximately 30 minutes after the two components are combined.

Thinning will be necessary to spray this coating. Thin up to 10% for normal temperatures and add
up to 20% thinner for higher temperatures if necessary. Use Plasite Thinner #71 (a medium-fast
Thinning
thinner) for internal tank lining; and Plasite Thinner #19 (a slower thinner) for exterior (hot or windy)
conditions.

Pot Life 24 hours at 70°F (21°C) and less at higher temperatures.

Listed below are general equipment guidelines for the application of this product. Job site conditions may require modifications
to these guidelines to achieve the desired results.

Spray gun should provide an 8-12 inch wide spray pattern with best possible atomization. Apply
a “mist” bonding pass. Allow to dry approximately one minute but not long enough to allow film to
completely dry.
Apply crisscross multi-passes, moving gun at fairly rapid rate, maintaining a wet appearing film.
Spray Application
Observe the coating surface, and when it appears to be flowing together you will have an average
(General)
6-7 mil (150-175 microns) wet film. By allowing the solvents to flash-off for a few minutes, several
more fast multi-passes may be applied until you have a film thickness of approximately 6-7 mils
(150-175 microns) - approximately 10-12 wet mils. Repeat above procedure for second coat-obtain
a film of 12-15 mils (250-300 microns) DFT.

Air pressure: 50 psi at the gun

Conventional Spray
Pot Pressure: 10-15 psi

Airless Spray Fluid Pressure: 1500-1800 psi Tip Size: 0.015-0.021 inches.

Recommended for small areas and repairs only. Use a high quality brush and apply a very light
crisscross brush coat. Allow to dry for approximately 5 minutes. Then apply a heavy coat using
Brush a crisscross brush pattern. “Flow” the coating on rather than try to “brush out.” Allow to dry tack
free. Repeat until sufficient film thickness is obtained. Normally a film thickness of 2.5-3 mil (62-75
microns) can be obtained per coat by this method.

Within 24 hours after coating is applied a minimum substrate temperature of 70°F (21°C) is required for proper polymerization.

CURING SCHEDULE
Surface Temp. Dry to Recoat Final Cure
70°F (21°C) 10 Hours 7 Days
85°F (29°C) 6 Hours 5 Days

The cure schedule above is for ambient applied and cured material at 50% RH.

Surface Temp. Immersion Service

130°F (54°C) 18 Hours
140°F (60°C) 10 Hours
150°F (66°C) 6 Hours
170°F (77°C) 3.5 Hours
190°F (88°C) 2 Hours

The chart above outlines the cure for service (immersion) times when the Force Cure schedule below is followed.

NOTE: Temperatures listed for 130°F and above are for force cure.
Force curing at elevated temperature will increase resistance to certain exposures. When exposure
is severe, force curing is recommended to obtain maximum resistance and service life.
Allow an air dry time of 2-5 hours @ 70-100°F (21-37°C) before heat curing. After air drying the
Force Cure substrate temperature should be raised by approximately 30°F (15°C) each 30 minutes until the
desired force cure temperature is reached.
Final cure may be checked by exposing coated surface to MIBK for ten minutes. If no dissolving
and only minor softening of film occurs the curing can be considered complete. The film should re-
harden after exposure if cured.

CLEANUP & SAFETY

Use Thinner #71. In case of spillage, absorb and dispose of in accordance with local applicable
Cleanup
regulations.

Read and follow all caution statements on this product data sheet and on the SDS. Employ normal
Safety
safety precautions.

When used in enclosed areas, thorough air circulation must be used during and after application
until the coating is cured. The ventilation system should be capable of preventing the solvent vapor
Ventilation concentration from reaching the lower explosion limit for the solvents used. User should test and
monitor exposure levels to insure all personnel are below guidelines. If not sure or if not able to
monitor levels, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air respirator.

This product may contain flammable solvents if thinned. Keep away from sparks and open flames.
All electrical equipment and installations should be made and grounded in accordance with the
Caution
National Electric Code. In areas where explosion hazards exist, workmen should be required to use
non-ferrous tools and wear conductive and non-sparking shoes.
