Cleaning materials
Mineral Turpentine
Application Tools
Brush
The surface to be primed must be clean, dry and free from oil, rust and millscale. Ideally the surface to be coated should be sand blasted, then primed on the same day. Where this is impracticable, oxyacetylene flame cleaning and descaling or other mechanical preparation may be employed. This is essential to achieve maximum protection. DO NOT USE CLEANING FLUIDS CONTAINING ACID, AS THIS WILL REACT WITH THE COATING CAUSING LACK OF ADHESION.
Before and occasionally during use, stir thoroughly with a broad flat stirrer, using an upward lifting action. This is essential, due to the high zinc content and the tendency to settle. Brush/Roller: Apply by brush only to ensure good film build. Apply a full even coat. Thin if necessary with up to 100ml per litre of Dulux Spraying Thinners. Not suitable for application by roller. Airless/Convention Spray: Not suitable for application by this method.
