International Ceilcote 242 Flakeline is a flake filled vinyl ester coating which has excellent resistance to organic and inorganic acid solutions and many aliphatic solvents. 

Best Uses

Ceilcote 242 Flakeline is intended for use on correctly prepared tanks and steel structures, as well as concrete trenches, pits, dykes and secondary containment. Used for many applications in the power, mining and chemical processing markets, when excellent chemical resistance is required.

Application

The recommended application is by Airless Spray. Application by Roller or Brush is also suitable, however, multiple coats may be required to achieve specified film thickness.

All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and free from contamination. Prior to paint application, all steel surfaces should be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504:2000. Oil or grease should be removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1 Solvent Cleaning.

Steel Substrates
For immersion service or service in humid conditions or elevated temperatures, this product should be applied to surfaces which have been prepared by abrasive blast cleaning to Sa3 (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC SP5 or NACE #1. For dry environments, abrasive blast cleaning to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC SP10 or NACE #2 will be suitable. A minimum surface profile of 75 microns (3 mils) is required.

Concrete Substrates
Concrete should be well cured prior to application of the flooring, lining or coating system. Refer to the Concrete Surface Preparation Guidelines for more information.

Surfaces must be primed using Ceilcote 380 Primer at 50-125 microns WFT (2-5 mils WFT).
