Thinner/Cleaner Transocean Epoxy Thinner 6.03
If thinning is necessary, this should be added after mixing of the two Components.
Avoid excessive thinning as it will result in lower sag resistance and slower cure.
(1)The given data are for guidance only as actual drying times may be shorter or longer, depending on film thickness, ventilation, humidity,
preceding paint system etc.
(2)The best intercoat adhesion is achieved when the subsequent coat is applied before the preceding coat is fully cured. After prolonged
exposure times it may be necessary to roughen the surface to ensure intercoat adhesion. When in doubt, consult your nearest Transocean
office.
Surface Preparation
Steel - Blast Cleaning
All surfaces should be clean, dry and free from contamination. Surfaces should be treated in
accordance with ISO 8504:2000.
All edges shall be ground to a minimum radius of 2 mm. Remove weld spatter and smooth weld
seams by using disc grinders, chipping hammers or other suitable power tools. Sharp edges, weld
seams, corners and other areas that are likely to receive less dry film thickness than specified,
should be stripe coated.
The surfaces shall be blast-cleaned to min. Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007). The surface profile and the
anchor pattern shall be between 40 µm and 70 µm.
The abrasives shall be free from oil, grease, moisture, chloride contamination etc.
Water jetting
Surfaces should be treated in accordance with ISO 8504:2000. All surfaces should be clean, dry
and free from contamination.
Water jetting in accordance to ISO 8591-4: 2006 to a cleanliness of Wa 2 or better for atmospheric
exposure and Wa 2,5 for immersion. Acceptable flash rust degree is M (medium) but degree L
(light) is preferred.
A water pressure of at least of 1000 bar (approx. 15.000 psi) is recommended.
Worldwide availability
The product is part of the common Transocean product range but local availability is subject to
confirmation. Although we strive to supply the same product through the world, slight modifications
of the product in some cases may be necessary in order to comply with local conditions and/or
national regulations. In such cases an alternative datasheet will issued.
