Application Guidelines

Surface Preparation

Mixing & Dilution

• Mixing Procedure: As a two-component product, strict ratio control is required. First, stir the base material at low speed for ≤2 minutes until smooth and homogeneous. Then slowly add the curing agent in a continuous stream while stirring for 3 minutes. Allow 1-2 minutes of induction time before application.
• Dilution Notes: Dilution is generally not recommended, as excessive thinning may impair coating performance and appearance. Use a variable-speed electric mixer; avoid over-stirring to prevent accelerated curing and reduced pot life. Higher temperatures shorten pot life, while lower temperatures extend it.

Application

• Spraying Methods: Suitable for conventional air spraying or airless spraying. For airless equipment, a Graco 30:1 pump with a 0.43-0.58 mm nozzle is recommended to ensure smooth material flow.
• Key Requirements: Ensure equipment and fluid lines are clean and free of water/solvents. Maintain a spray angle of 40°-70° for uniform film thickness. For roller application, use new short-fine-nap rollers.

Safety Precautions

• Hazards: May cause eye and skin irritation; vapor may trigger respiratory irritation in sensitive individuals; potential skin allergy risk.
• Protective Measures: Avoid inhaling vapor; prevent contact with eyes and skin. Use eye/ear/skin protection and appropriate respiratory masks. After use, thoroughly wash skin with water.
• First Aid: In case of eye contact, flush with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention immediately. For respiratory arrest, perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and consult a physician. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
