Application Conditions
Condition Material Surface Ambient Humidity
Minimum 45 °F (7 °C) 20 °F (-7 °C) 20 °F (-7 °C) 0%
Maximum 90 °F (32 °C) 120 °F (49 °C) 100 °F (38 °C) 95%
Industry standards are for substrate temperatures to be above the dew point. For immersion
conditions it is recommended to follow this procedure. For non-immersion conditions Carbomastic
615 can tolerate damp substrates. See Brush or Roller above. Special thinning and application
techniques may be required above or below normal conditions. Do not apply to substrates with ice or
ice crystal formation. Dehumidify or raise the temperature to eliminate ice on the substrate.

Curing Schedule
Surface Temp. & 50% Dry to Topcoat Maximum Recoat Time
Relative Humidity Minimum
20 °F (-7 °C) 72 Hours 45 Days
35 °F (2 °C) 17 Hours 30 Days
60 °F (16 °C) 8 Hours 15 Days
75 °F (24 °C) 2 Hours 7 Days
90 °F (32 °C) 90.0 Minutes 3 Days
These times above are based on a 5.0-10.0 mil (125-250 micron) dry film thickness per coat. Higher
film thickness, insufficient ventilation or cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could
result in solvent entrapment and premature failure. Excessive humidity or condensation on the
surface during curing can interfere with the cure, can cause discoloration and may result in a surface
haze. Any haze or blush must be removed by water washing before recoating. If the maximum
recoat times have been exceeded, the surface must be abraded by sweep blasting or sanding
prior to the application of additional coats. For force curing, contact Carboline Technical Service for
specific requirements.

Cleanup & Safety

Cleanup Use Thinner #2 or Acetone. In case of spillage, absorb
and dispose of in accordance with local applicable
regulations.
Safety Read and follow all caution statements on this product
data sheet and on the MSDS for this product. Employ
normal workmanlike safety precautions.
Ventilation When used as a tank lining or in enclosed areas,
thorough air circulation must be used during and after
application until the coating is cured. The ventilation
system should be capable of preventing the solvent
vapor concentration from reaching the lower explosion
limit for the solvents used. User should test and
monitor exposure levels to insure all personnel are
below guidelines. If not sure or if not able to monitor
levels, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air
respirator.

These times are based on a 5.0-8.0 mil (125-200 micron) dry film thickness per coat. Higher
film thickness, insufficient ventilation or cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could
result in solvent entrapment and premature failure. Excessive humidity or condensation on the
surface during curing can interfere with the cure, can cause discoloration and may result in a surface
haze. Any haze or blush must be removed by water washing before recoating. If the maximum
recoat times have been exceeded, the surface must be abraded by sweep blasting or sanding
prior to the application of additional coats. For force curing, contact Carboline Technical Service for
specific requirements. For application and cure conditions below 35°F, dehumidify before, during,
and after application to prevent ice formation on the surface.

Carboguard 690 is a high performance, surface tolerant Product Details

epoxy phenalkamine that has excellent resistance to
a variety of industrial environments. It is suitable for
both new construction or maintenance and exhibits
outstanding moisture tolerance during application,
low-temperature cure capability, and very fast cure
response for quick return to service.
Carboguard 690 is a versatile epoxy that
has outstanding wetting and adhesion
properties, quick-cure characteristics,
and extreme tolerance of high moisture
conditions both during and after
application. It has low-temperature
curing (20°F) (- 6°C) capability,
extending the painting season.
