General Surface Preparation
The surface to be coated must be dimensionally stable, dry, clean, and free of oil, grease, release agents, curing compounds, and other foreign
materials. Where appropriate bare areas should be primed with a suitable primer. Job conditions may dictate the choice of an alternate primer.
Consult PPG HD systems or your PPG Sales Representative if this is the case. WARNING! If you scrape, sand, or remove old paint, you may
release lead dust or fumes. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO LEAD DUST OR FUMES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS BRAIN
DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a properly fitted
NIOSH-approved respirator and prevent skin contact to control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you
start, find out how to protect yourself and your family by contacting the USEPA National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to
www.epa.gov/lead. In Canada contact a regional Health Canada office. Follow these instructions to control exposure to other hazardous substances
that may be released during surface preparation.
PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES: Old coatings should be tested for adhesion of the existing system and lifting by the proposed topcoat.
