Product compatibility Depending on the actual exposure of the coating system, various primers and topcoats can be used in combination with this product. Some examples are shown below. Contact Jotun for specific system recommendation.
Previous coat: acrylic, epoxy
Additional information Procedure for preparation and cleaning of application equipment
To avoid solvent contamination of the water borne paint the spraying equipment has to be conditioned before use. All equipment containing solvents in the pump, hoses and gun have to be thoroughly cleaned according to the following instructions. If the application equipment is made in stainless steel, designed for and only used for application of water borne coatings this preparation and cleaning procedure is not needed.
Before spraying: Circulate Jotun Thinner No. 17 through the equipment and hoses. Then Jotun Thinner No. 4 before fresh clean water.
After spraying: Clean the equipment and hoses with water and alkaline detergent, then circulate Jotun Thinner No. 4 and finally Jotun Thinner No. 17.
