SURFACE All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and free from contamination. Prior to paint
PREPARATION application all surfaces should be assessed and treated in accordance with
ISO8504:2000.
Oil or grease should be removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1 Solvent Cleaning.
Abrasive Blast Cleaning:
Abrasive blast clean to Sa2½ (ISO 8501 -1: 1988) or SSPC – SP10. If oxidation
has occurred between blasting and application of Intergard 906, the surface
should be reblasted to the specified visual standard. Surface defects revealed
by the blast cleaning process, should be ground, filled or treated in the appropriate
manner
Shop Primed Steelwork:
Weld seams and damaged areas should be blast cleaned to Sa2½ (ISO8501-1:1988) or
SSPC-SP10.
If the shop primer shows extensive or widely scattered breakdown overall sweep blasting
may be necessary.

Epoxy Polyamide
PRODUCT Intergard 906 is preferred for use with systems for chemical environments where zinc
CHARACTERISTICS based materials can be subject to attack in both acidic and alkaline conditions.
The maximum overcoating interval will be dependent upon the integrity of the exposed
film. A film of 50 microns (2 mils) dry film thickness will normally be overcoatable after
upto 6-12 months exposure (depending upon the corrosivity of the environment)
provided it is adequately cleaned and any area of mechanical damage repaired.
Over-application of Intergard 906 will extend both the minimum overcoating periods and
handling items, and may be detrimental to long term overcoating properties.
When applying Intergard 906 by brush or roller, it may be necessary to apply multiple
coats to achieve the total specified system dry film thickness.
This product will not cure adequately below 5° C (4°1 F). For maximum performance
curing temperatures should be above 10° C (50° F)
In common with all epoxies Intergard 906 will chalk and discolor on exterior exposure.
However, these phenomena are not detrimental to anti-corrosive performance.
Where a durable cosmetic finish with good gloss and color retention is required overcoat
with recommended topcoats.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYSTEMS Intergard 906 is designed for application over correctly prepared steel.
