🔧 Application
Construction Method
Airless spraying
Nozzle pressure: 14 MPa – 21 MPa
Nozzle hole diameter: 0.6 mm – 0.8 mm
If applying by brush or roller, additional coats will be required to achieve the specified dry film thickness. Spray data is for reference only and may be adjusted. Pressure is applicable to material temperatures of 20°C [68°F]. Brush and roller application is only suitable for line marking and small area touch-ups.
Construction Conditions
During construction and curing, the surface temperature of the substrate must be above 5°C [41°F].
To avoid condensation, the substrate temperature during construction should be at least 3°C [5°F] higher than the dew point, clean and dry.
Relative humidity: The relative humidity during construction and curing must be less than 85%.
Surface Treatment
Remove oil, grease and other contaminants with a suitable cleaning agent.
High-pressure water cleaning removes salt, detergents and other contaminants.
Surface blasted to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1) / SP 10 (SSPC).
Remove dust, sand and loose materials.
Surface blasted to PSa 2½ (ISO 8501-2) / SP 10 (SSPC).
High pressure water is sprayed onto Wa 2½ (ISO 8501-4).
Small areas can be cleaned by hand or electric tools instead of sandblasting.
The degree of flash rust is not higher than FR L (ISO 8501-4).
The surface of the substrate reaches Medium (G) (ISO 8503-2).

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q What surfaces is this paint suitable for?
A This paint is suitable for the surface corrosion protection of metal and cement structures used at sea and underwater environments.
Q What is the recommended application method for this coating?
A Airless spraying is the recommended method, using a nozzle pressure of 14–21 MPa and a nozzle hole diameter of 0.6–0.8 mm. Brush or roller application is only suitable for small touch-up areas.
Q What are the required surface preparation standards before applying the paint?
A The surface should be blasted to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1) / SP 10 (SSPC), and flash rust should not exceed FR L (ISO 8501-4). All oil, grease, salt and loose materials must be removed prior to application.
Q What environmental conditions are required during application?
A The substrate temperature must be above 5°C [41°F], at least 3°C above the dew point, and relative humidity must be below 85% during both application and curing.
Q What is the mixing ratio and pot life of this product?
A The mixing ratio is Base : Hardener = 4:1 by volume. The pot life ranges from 4 hours at 30°C to 6 hours at 10°C after mixing.
Q How long can this product be stored, and what is its dry film thickness?
A The storage period is 24 months at 25°C. The reference dry film thickness is 125 μm, with a theoretical coating rate of 5.8 ㎡/L.
