RUSTGRIP ®
APPLICATION METHOD / RECOMMENDED COATING SYSTEM
PREPARATION
OF SUBSTRATE :
(
Methods: SSPC-SP
1, SP 2, SP 3, SP 6, SP 7, SP 12 )
Can power wash with solvent wipe down,
light commercial blast, or power hand tool to remove loose flake and debris
before applying. Can use power tool ( within the guidelines of Clean Air
Act ) with vacuum to prep lead-based paints ( as discussed at Steel Structures
Painting Council--SSPC--meeting March 15-17, 2001 and attended by EPA and
NIOSH ) before applying RUSTGRIP
® over lead-based paints. Alternative
to abatement of lead paints. Surfaces should be clean, dry and sound.
Existing surface dirt, oil, tar, grease and film should be removed from surface
by approved methods ( TSP-Tri-Sodium Phosphate or equivalent ) prior to application
of RUSTGRIP
®. MUST BE COMPLETELY DRY or
being a moisture cure it will start curing before it has an opportunity to
become part of the substrate and could flake off.
Aluminum
Preparation using 409 Citrus Cleaner
It is
also advised that the Letter from the Oklahoma
Department of Transportation be reviewed.
IMPORTANT:
Stir product thoroughly before using. RUSTGRIP
® can be applied slowly with soft
bristle brush, roller or spray equipment. If spraying use standard airless
sprayer (3,000 psi or less) with a .015 tip. It should be applied evenly
without buildup at the prescribed thickness. Overly thick application
or applying too quickly may cause surface bubbling from gassing. Apply
in two coats using crosshatch method ( side-to-side, up and down over
same area ). RUSTGRIP
® over RUSTGRIP ® must
be overcoated within 4 hours. NOTE
: If overcoating with any other paint products, do so within a 2
week time period of initial application of RUSTGRIP
®. It is preferable that
the overcoat be applied within a day or two so that they can
cure down together.
CAUTION:
Wear gloves and protective clothing. Extremely tough to clean off skin.
Throw away brushes and rollers after use. Wear eye protection. * CLEAN
UP IMMEDIATELY OR WILL RUIN EQUIPMENT. SOLVENT: Clean-up or reduction,
use MEK or MIBK. If sprayed, keep solvent ready to clean equipment before
breaks (lunch hour) or at conclusion of job.
NOTE
- 1 mil = 1 thousandths of an inch 1/1000"
FEATURES:
* USDA approved ( safe around foods ) Lead & chromite free VOC - Rating:
418 gram / ltr, California EPA ( Table of Standards ) maximum accepted
VOC allowed is 500 grams \ liter under the classification of: "Metallic
pigmented coatings"
* Solids By volume: 51.37% \ By weight.: 62.2% \ Weight: 9.18 Ibs. per
gallon Viscosity: 77F. = 59 KU / 320 centipoise SAG test: 4 mils WFT =
320 cps +/- 5% ( viscosity )
* FILM THICKNESS - 4 mils WFT \ 2 mils DFT per coat, ( 400 sq.ft./gal .)
( A wet mil gauge is recommended )
METAL or other non porous substrates ie. bridges 8 mils WFT \ 4 mils
DFT
CONCRETE or other porous substrates 10 mils WFT \ 5 mils DFT
* Dry Time: 2 hour to touch @ 72F (20C); topcoat immediately after surface
is dry to the touch but within two weeks; RUSTGRIP
® over RUSTGRIP
® must be overcoated within 4 hours.
Higher temperatures and humidity will shorten cure times and lower temperatures
will slow curing
* May be used by itself without an additional top coat product.
* Excellent adhesion to wide variety of substrates. Attaches into the pores
of metal, concrete or any other substrate and expands to lock in.
* Cures by reacting to moisture in the air.
* A portion of a container may be used and re-sealed for later use, if done
so carefully and with an air tight seal. A piece of poly between the can
and the lid is recommended to prevent them from becoming one and thereby
being impossible to open. A skin may form on surface of the product.
Remove the skin and use as directed.
* Salt Spray Corrosion Test: 2000 hours / Rating Procedure B:9 (Key to Rating
0-10; 0=complete failure, 10=excellent)
* Vehicle Type: Aromatic Polyurethane
* Pigment Type: Aluminum \ Shelf life: 1 year Gloss: Low angular sheen
* Impact Resistance: 200+ psi Front \ 160 psi Back Abrasion-Resistance: ASTM
D4060 Graded 18, (excellent)
* Lead-Based Paint Approval: Tested and approved by ASTM E1795 for lead-based
paint encapsulation for all local, state, federal agencies, offers 6750
psi tensile strength.
Transmission of electrical currents: Can withstand 18 volts without disbonding.
For underground pipes and tanks.
IMPORTANT:
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. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN. This is a flammable liquid. Keep away from flame or fire
or other sources of ignition.
COVERAGE RECOMMENDATIONS:
Non-Rusted, Metal, Fiberglass ( as a primer ) ...200 sq.ft. over rusted
surface / 300 sq.ft. as primer
Wood, Concrete, Porous Substrates/Rusted Metal... 200 sq.ft./gallon total,
2 coats
Apply coating in 2 applications, using the cross-hatch method (up & down,
side-to-side)
Bridges and/or Encapsulation ... 100-150 sq.ft. / gal. ( use brush or roller
on 1st coat )
Apply in two coats ( 3 - 4 mils) to four coats ( 5 - 6 mils), depending
upon specified mils required.
