PRODUCT CODE: E7865A
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The primary end use for this coating is: CORROSION RESISTANT PRIMER FOR MARINE
ENVIRONMENTS
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS:
SOLIDS : 58.80 % to 62.80 % by weight
DENSITY: 12.97 to 13.57 lb/gal, 1.55 to 1.62 Kg/liter
VISCOSITY, as shipped: 12 to 22 SECONDS ZAHN #2 (S90) AT 77°F (25°C)
TYPICAL PROPERTIES:
VOLUME SOLIDS, theoretical: 37.50 %
COVERAGE, theoretical: 601.50 sq.ft./gal. at 1 mil, 9.38 sq.m./Kg. at 25 microns
FLASH POINT: NONE
VOLATILE ORGANIC CMPDS: 0.08 lb./gal, 9.60 grams/liter
PREPARATION OF PARTS FOR COATING:

Parts must be free of dirt, oil and other soils to achieve good adhesion and defect-free coatings. The
following are the recommended substrates and substrate preparations used with this coating:
SUBSTRATES: COLD ROLLED STEEL, ALUMINUM
SUBSTRATE PREP: DEGREASE AND GRIT BLAST - USE 60-80 MESH ALUMINUM OXIDE
MEDIA FOR GRIT BLAST.
PRIMERS / BASECOATS: N/A
PREPARATION OF COATING MATERIAL:

Mix containers thoroughly by shaking or stirring until any solid material on the bottom has been
eliminated. Best results are obtained when the coating temperature is 65-90°F (18-32°C). Adjust
viscosity, if necessary, using the recommended thinner and an accurate Zahn Viscosity Cup. Other
viscosity cups may also be used. Add thinner in increments of 2% until proper viscosity is achieved.
Low viscosity produces runs and sags and low film thickness. High viscosity produces poor sprayability
and uneven appearance. Any dried coating or dirt may be removed by passing the coating through a
100-200 micron filter.
APPLICATION VISCOSITY: AS SUPPLIED - REDUCTION NOT RECOMMENDED
VISCOSITY ADJUSTMENT: D.I. WATER, OR WHITFORD SOLVENT 101 IF NECESSARY
OTHER INFORMATION: NOTE: WATER WASTE WILL CONTAIN CHROMIUM - MUST DISPOSE
OF PROPERLY

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: XYLAR 2/E7865A SILVER GRAY
APPLICATION INFORMATION:
This product is designed primarily for spray application. Consult with a Whitford representative if other
types of application are being considered. Use an air spray gun with a siphon cup or pressure pot.
Select a fluid nozzle and air cap that meet application needs. The Whitford Laboratory uses a Binks
Model 2001 gun with a #66S fluid nozzle and a #66SD air cap. The air supply line must be equipped
with traps to remove water and oil. Drain and service traps frequently.
Apply the dry film thickness as specified. The proper amount of coating should be achieved with two or
three passes of the spray gun across the work piece. Apply the coating to a uniform, full wet
appearance.
DRY FILM THICKNESS: O.8 - 1.2 MILS (20 - 30 MICRONS)
CLEAN UP SOLVENT: WATER
CURING THE COATING:

In order to completely cure the coating, the SUBSTRATE TEMPERATURE must remain at the specified
temperature for the entire bake schedule.
FLASH OR AIR DRY: AMBIENT TO 150°F (66°C) UNTIL PART TURNS COMPLETELY
GREY IN COLOR.
BAKE SCHEDULE: 5 - 10 MINUTES AT 750 - 650°F, 20 MINUTE AT 550 - 600°F
TYPICAL CURED FILM PROPERTIES:

Evaluate the coating according to the following specifications:
PENCIL HARDNESS: > 8H GLOSS: MATTE AS SPRAYED

CURE TEST: WHITFORD TM-115C / APPLY 1 DROP OF HOT TAP WATER TO PART
LET STAND 1 MINUTE, BLOT WITH PAPER TOWEL = NO
DISCOLORATION ON TOWEL.
ADHESION: EXCELLENT KNIFE SCRATCH ADHESION
OTHER: MATERIAL CAN BE BURNISHED WITH GLASS BEAD AT 15-25 PSI FOR
BETTER CORROSION RESISTANCE AND APPEARANCE.
HANDLING & STORAGE:
Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Store between 40 to 95°F (4 to 35°C). Avoid breathing
fumes during application or curing. Wash hands thoroughly before smoking or eating. Wear appropriate
protective equipment while handling.
SHELF LIFE: 6 MONTHS (MIX OR ROLL 30-60 MINUTES MONTHLY TO MAINTAIN QUALITY)
