ENAMOGRIP COLOURED
APPLICATION
METHOD:
Surfaces must be clean and dry before application.
Loose or flaking old paints or corrosion must be removed before applying. High
pressure water-blasting is as effective as light sandblasting in removing loose
or flaking surfaces if you use 5000 psi. Let surface dry completely before applying.
As a rule, "a coating is only as good as the surface it covers." Grease,
oil, waxy substance, dirt, etc. must be first cleaned from surfaces. Old paints
can remain if bonded solidly to surfaces. ENAMOGRIP
can bond to metal, masonry, wood and other porous surfaces substrates. ENAMOGRIP
can be applied best by Airless sprayers using a 24-thousandth tip for a smooth,
even finish. Brushes can also be used. Using a short nap roller may still trap
air bubbles that would need to be brushed out..
Catalyst ratio: This is a two-part mixture. Mixed 1 part curing agent to 3 parts base. Mix on job site before application. Pot life is 6-8 hours at 77 degrees Fahrenheit ( higher temperatures accelerate reaction and reduce pot life).
Packaged unit: Shipped as a 4-gallon
kit. Three gallon base in a pail with a gallon can of curing agent separate. On
job site, pour the gallon of curing agent into the 3-gallon pail of base and mix
to have a finished product mixture of 4 gallons.
Let set for 30 minutes,
then apply.
Clean up: Solvent wash to clean equipment Use MEK or MIBK
to clean equipment.
Tinting : Use ONLY 844 Series for 2 part polyurethane
Solids by volume : 45.9%
Sag test : 6 mils WFT = 240 cps +\- 5% ( viscosity
)
Viscosity : 18 seconds, #4 Zahn
Dry Time : 1 hour to touch / 2 hours
to recoat / 4 hours to handle at 77F degrees
Cures by : Slow moisture and
heat cure, non reactive
Cure Time : Warm temperatures 4 - 5 days; Cool temperatures
7 - 10 days
IMPORTANT:
All surfaces must be clean and completely free of moisture and residues
of any kind. For flooring, it is preferable that the first coat is mixed 50/50
with MAK ( Methyl Amyl Keytone ) solvent to anchor then apply the top coat as
normal. COMES READY TO MIX AND USE, NO NEED TO DILUTE OR THIN.
Wear skin and eye protection. Do not take internally. Avoid contact with eyes. If solution does come in contact with eyes, flush immediately with water and contact a physician for medical attention. Avoid prolonged contact with skin or breathing of spray mist. This is a flammable liquid. Keep away from flame or fire or other sources of ignition.
