For lighting columns, the standard PPG lighting column specification recommends that galvanised steel surfaces are prepared by thorough cleaning, degreasing and washing, followed by abrasion by belt sanding, followed by application of the following:
SigmaCover 280 Primer at 50 microns
Sigmarite 4560GF (previously Amercoat 4560GF) at 300microns
PSX700 at 100 microns
Surface and Environment
PPG PSX 700 Engineered Siloxane is a high quality coating which can be used on a number of different substrates internally. PSX 700 Engineered Siloxane has been highly recommended for use for London Underground due to its durability on surfaces which are regularly exposed to chemicals, abrasion and impact from trains and people.
