Best Uses

Application

For Ferrous Surfaces: Blast clean to Sa2 1/2 BS EN ISO 8501-1:2007. Average surface profile should be in the range of 50 - 75 microns. Manually prepared surfaces should be prepared to a minimum standard of ST3 BS EN ISO 8501-1:2007 at the time of coating.


For Stainless Steel and Non-Ferrous Surfaces: Ensure surfaces to be coated are clean, dry and free of surface contamination. For optimum adhesion the substrate should be thoroughly abraded or flash blasted with non metallic abrasive. Application can be made using airless sprayer, conventional sprayer, brush or roller.
