Directions for Use
Surface Preparation & Substrate Condition
- Suitable zinc silicate primer or over aluminum /zinc metallized surface; dry & free from all surface contamination mist coat is recommended when applied over zinc silicate primer. - For application over weathered zinc primers, ensure white rust removal by thorough water scrubbing / high-pressure water cleaning.
- Surface temperature must be atleast 3°C above dew point but not above 50 °C
- For long term protection, we recommend application of primer coat
- This product should not be applied on hot surfaces
Mixing
If settling is observed in the drum, loosen the settled material with the help of hand stirrer followed by power driven stirrer for quick homogenous mixing
