*Measured according to ISO 3233:1998 (E)
Surface preparation
All surfaces should be clean, dry and free from contamination. The surface should be assessed and
treated in accordance with ISO 8504.
Bare steel
Cleanliness: Power tool cleaning to min. St 2, mill scale free (ISO 8501-1:1988). Improved surface
treatment (blast cleaning to Sa 2½) will improve the performance.
Shopprimed steel
Clean, dry and undamaged approved blast-primer.
Coated surfaces
Clean, dry and undamaged compatible primer. Contact your local Jotun office for more information.
For maintenance UHPWJ to WJ3 (NACE No.5/SSPC-SP 12) or Power tool cleaning to min. St 2 for
rusted areas

Other surfaces
The coating may be used on other substrates. Please contact your local Jotun office for more
information.
Condition during application

The temperature of the substrate should be minimum 10°C and at least 3°C above the dew point of
the air, temperature and relative humidity measured in the vicinity of the substrate. Good ventilation
is usually required in confined areas to ensure proper drying.
Application methods
Spray Use airless spray
Brush Recommended for stripe coating and small areas, care must be taken to achieve the
specified dry film thickness.
Roller May be used for small areas but not recommended for first primer coat, however
when using roller application care must be taken to apply sufficient material in order to
achieve the specified dry film thickness.
Application data
Mixing ratio (volume) 7 parts by volume Comp. A (base) to 1 part Comp. B (hardener)
Pot life (23°C) 2 hours
Thinner/Cleaner Jotun Thinner No. 17

Guiding data airless spray
Pressure at nozzle 15 MPa (150 kp/cm², 2100 psi)
Nozzle tip 0.58-0.79 mm (0.023-0.031 ")
Spray angle 40-80°
Filter Check to ensure that the filters are clean
Note *The temperature of the mixture of base and curing agent is
recommended to be at least 15°C, otherwise extra solvent may be
required to obtain correct viscosity.
* Too much solvent results in lower sag resistance and slower cure.
* If extra solvent is necessary, this should be added after mixing of
the two components
Drying time
Drying times are generally related to air circulation, temperature, film thickness and number of coats,
and will be affected correspondingly. The figures given in the table are typical with:
* Good ventilation (Outdoor exposure or free circulation of air)
* Typical film thickness
* One coat on top of inert substrate
Substrate temperature 10°C 23°C 40°C

Surface dry 8h 4h 2h
Through dry 48 h 14 h 5h
Cured 14 d 7d 2d
Dry to recoat, minimum 48 h 14 h 5h
Dry to recoat, maximum 1

The given data must be considered as guidelines only. The actual drying time/times before recoating
may be shorter or longer, depending on film thickness, ventilation, humidity, underlying paint system,
requirement for early handling and mechanical strength etc. A complete system can be described on
a system sheet, where all parameters and special conditions could be included.
