 METAL PROTECTIVE OIL L
TECHNICAL DATA

PRODUCT APPLICATION
Metal Protective Oil L is designed primarily for indoor protection only.
Metal Protective Oil L may be applied by brushing, spraying, or dipping. Maximum performance of Metal Protective Oil L can be
achieved only when the metal surfaces are clean, free of rust, water, ice and mill scale. The metal substrate should be at a tem-
perature of 50° to 95°F (10° to 35°C) at the time of product application. Metal Protective Oil L is formulated to be used as supplied.
DO NOT THIN Metal Protective Oil L. Incorrect thinning will compromise film build, dry time, and coverage. Ensure uniform consis-
tency prior to use.
Normally a single tank is adequate for dipping operations, however, if parts are extremely wet or dirty and where carry-over is
great, a two-tank system will produce the best results. Where water displacement is of primary importance, the dip tank should be
equipped with a bottom drain for removing accumulated water. A false bottom tank is desirable to prevent parts from being dipped
through rust preventative into water layer below.
DO NOT HERMETICALLY SEAL BAGS IF BAGGING PARTS.
RECOMMENDED SPRAY EQUIPMENT: Metal Protective Oil L is a ready to use product. The viscosity is low enough to be easily
sprayed using a pneumatic spray gun/body shutz gun or pressure pot. Airless spray equipment is not required but can be used if
other methods are not available.
