APPLICATION EQUIPMENT APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

The following is a guide. Changes in pressures and tip
sizes may be needed for proper spray characteristics.
Always purge spray equipment before using it with listed
reducer. Any reduction must be compatible with existing
environmental and application conditions.
Airless spray :
Pressure ........................... 2100 - 2400 psi
Hose ................................. ¼ “ ID
Tip ................................... 0,015” - 0,017 “
Filter ................................. 60 mesh
Reduction.......................... up to 10%, by volume.
Mixing instructions :
Mix contents of each component thoroughly with power
agitator. Make certain no pigment remains on the bottom
of the cans.
Then combine Part B with Part A. Thoroughly agitate the
mixture with power agitation.
If reducer solvent is used, add it only after both
components have been thoroughly mixed, after sweat-in.
Wait for 15 minutes before applying the material.

Conventional spray : Application:

Gun .................................. JGA 502/3 Devilbiss
Fluid nozzle ...................... EX
Air nozzle. ......................... 704
Atomization pressure ........ 50 psi
Fluid pressure ................... 30 psi
Reduction .......................... up to 15%, by volume.
Brush :
Use brush with 75 a 100 mm of width for larger surfaces and with
25 a 38 mm for screw, screw-nut, string weld and retouching
Roller :
Cover ....................... 3/8” woven with phenolic core
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.
Excessive reduction of material can affect film build,
appearance, and adhesion.
Do not apply the material beyond recommended pot life.

If specific application equipment is not listed above,

equivalent equipment may be used.

Equipment clean up :
Use THINNER # 908
