WI-FAC-005 FRAME PAINTING ( IN HOUSE ) Issue 3 Rev. 3 10.03.12
1. PRODUCTS SPECI FI CATI ONS
1.1 Prime Coat Surface-tolerant, high solids polyamine cured epoxy-based primer/topcoat which may be applied in high film thickness. Product shall be a part of complete system which is certified not to spread surface flames. The temperature of the substrate should be minimum of 100C and maxi mum 30C above dew point of the air, temperature and relative humidity measured in the vi cinity of the substrate. When used in confined spaces, good ventilation is necessary. Do not use heated air until the solvents have evaporated from the paint film to avoid surface dryi ng and solvent entrapment. The paint should not be exposed to mechanical wear before being fully cured. 1.2 Top Coat Polyurethane with excellent gloss and color retention. All other details same as above except temperature of the substrate should be minimum of 00C and maxi mum 30C above dew point of the air. 2. SURFACE PREPARATI ON AS PER I SO 8504 STANDARD REFERENCE Sanding and usage of standard wire brush so that when vi ewed without magnification, the surface shall be free from vi sible oil, grease and dirt and from poorly adhering mill scale, rust, paint coatings and foreign matter. 3. CONDI TI ON DURI NG APPL I CATI ON When used in confined spaces, good ventilation is necessary. Do not use heated air until the solvents have evaporated from the paint film to avoid surface dryi ng and solvent entrapment. The paint should not be exposed to mechanical strain before being fully cured. 4.
