A non-epoxy topcoat must be applied before the previous epoxy topcoat has hardened and while the epoxy is in a slightly tacky condition. This overcoat period is mainly dependent on the existing environmental conditions. If the epoxy is not tacky an additional coat of epoxy must be applied to provide the required tacky condition.



Recommended Uses
    For use over prepared substrates such as steel and aluminum in industrial and marine environments where a hard, durable, chemical resistant coating is desired.
  • Marine vessels : bilges, tanks, underwater hulls, and potable water storage tanks
  • Off shore platforms
    For use where air pollution regulations for marine coatings are restricted to a maximum of 340 g/L or 2.8 lb/gal.

Surface Preparation
    Surface must be clean, dry, and in sound condition. Remove all oil, dust, grease, dirt, loose rust, and other foreign material to ensure adequate adhesion.

    Iron & Steel (immersion service)
    Remove all oil and grease from surface by Solvent Cleaning per SSPC-SP1. Minimum surface preparation is Near White Metal Blast Cleaning per SSPC-SP10/NACE2. Blast clean all surfaces using a sharp, angular abrasive for optimum surface profile (1-3 mils). Remove all weld spatter and round all sharp edges by grinding to a minimum 1/4" radius. Prime any bare steel the same day as it is cleaned or before flash rusting occurs.

    Iron & Steel (atmospheric service)
    Remove all oil and grease from surface by Solvent Cleaning per SSPC-SP1. Minimum surface preparation is Commercial Blast Cleaning per SSPC-SP6/NACE2. For better performance, use Near White Metal Blast Cleaning per SSPC-SP10/NACE2. Blast clean all surfaces using a sharp, angular abrasive for optimum surface profile (2 mils). Remove all weld spatter and round all sharp edges by grinding to a minimum 1/4" radius. Prime any bare steel the same day as it is cleaned or before flash rusting occurs.

    Aluminum
    Remove all oil, grease, dirt, oxide and other foreign material by Solvent Cleaning per SSPC-SP1. Minimum surface preparation is Brush Off Blast Cleaning per SSPC-SP7.

    Min. Recommended Surface Preparation
    Iron & Steel
    Atmospheric : SSPC-SP6/NACE3, 2.0 mil profile
    Immersion : SSPC-SP10/NACE2, 1.0-3.0 mil profile
    Aluminum : SSPC-SP7 or Power Wire Brush.



Application Procedures
    Surface preparation must be completed as indicated.

    Mix contents of each component thoroughly with power agitation. Make certain no pigment remains on the bottom of the can. Then combine one part by volume of Part A with one part by volume of Part B. Thoroughly agitate the mixture with power agitation. Allow the material to sweat-in as indicated below prior to application. Re-stir before using.
    If reducer solvent is used, add only after both components have been thoroughly mixed, after sweat-in.

    Recommended Spreading Rate per coal
    Wet mils Primer : 5.0 -6.0
    Dry mils Primer : 3.0 - 4.0
    Coverage Primer : 240 - 320 sq ft/gal approximate
    Wet mils Topocoat : 3.5 - 5.0
    Dry mils Topocoat : 2.0 - 3.0
    Coverage Topocoat : 320 - 450 sq ft/gal approximate

    Note : Brush or roll application may require multiple coats to achieve maximum film thickness and uniformity of appearance.

    Pot Life : 5 hours at 77°F, 50%RH

    Sweat-in Time :
    35 - 60°F : 2 hours
    61 - 70°F : 1 - 1 1/2 hours
    71 - 90°F : 30 minutes - 1 hour
    90°F : none

    Application of coating above maximum or below minimum recommended spreading rate may adversely affect coating performance.



Disclaimer
    The information and recommendations set forth in this Product Data Sheet are based upon tests conducted by or on behalf of The Sherwin-Williams Company. Such information and recommendations set forth herein are subject lo change and pertain to the product offered at the time of publication.



Clean-Up
    Clean spills and spatters immediately with Reducer #130, R7K130 Clean tools immediately after use with Reducer #130, R7K130 Follow manufacturer's safety recommendations when using any solvent.



Performance Tips
    Stripe coat all crevices, welds, and sharp angles to prevent early failure in these areas.

    When using spray application, use a 50% overlap with each pass of the gun to avoid holidays, bare areas, and pinholes. If necessary, cross spray at a right angle.

    Spreading rates are calculated on volume solids and do not include an application loss factor due to surface profile, roughness or porosity of the surface, skill and technique of the applicator, method of application, various surface irregularities, material lost during mixing, spillage, over thinning, climatic conditions, and excessive film build.

    Excessive reduction of material can affect film build, appearance, and adhesion.

    Do not apply the material beyond recommended pot life.

    Do not mix previously catalyzed material with new.

    In order to avoid blockage of spray equipment, clean equipment before use or before periods of extended downtime with Reducer #130, R7K130.

    For low temperature, atmospheric application, material should be at least 60°F.



Warranty
    The Sherwin-Williams Company warrants our products to be free of manufacturing defects in accord with applicable Sherwin-Williams quality control procedures. Liability for products proven defective, if any, Is limited to replacement of the defective product or the refund of the purchase price paid for the defective product as determined by Sherwin-Williams.
