Coverage
| Recommended film thicknesses | Theoretical coverage | |
|---|---|---|
| dry | wet | |
| 40 µm | 95 µm | 10.7 m2/l |
| 60 µm | 140 µm | 7.2 m2/l |
Practical coverage depends on the application method, painting conditions and the shape and roughness of the surface to be coated.
Drying times
| DFT 50 um | + 15 °C | + 23 °C | + 60 °C |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dust dry, after | 20 min | 15 min | 5 min |
| Touch dry, after | 6 h | 1 h | 15 min |
| Recoatable, after | 24 h | 3 h | 2 h |
Drying and recoating times are related to the film thickness, temperature, the relative humidity of the air and ventilation.
Application details
Application method
All surfaces must be dry. The temperature of the ambient air, surface or paint should not fall below +15 ºC during application or drying. Relative humidity should be between 20 - 70 %. The surface temperature of the steel should remain at least 3 ºC above the dew point.
Preparation
Primed surfaces: Oil, grease, salt and dirt are removed from the surface by appropriate means. Repair any damage to the primer coat. Note the overcoating time of primer. (ISO 12944-4)
Priming
FONTECRYL 10, FONTECRYL AP, FONTECRYL 25, TEMAPRIME AB, TEMAPRIME EE, TEMAPRIME EUR, TEMAPRIME GF and TEMAPRIME ML.
Finishing
FONTECRYL 50.
Painting
By spray, brush or dipping. Depending on the application method the paint can be thinned 0 - 10 %. Airless spray nozzle tip 0,011" - 0,015" and nozzle pressure 120 - 160 bar. Spray angle shall be chosen according to the shape of the object.
Cleaning of tools
Water or FONTECLEAN 1921. The equipment must be cleaned immediately after use before the paint dries.
EU VOC 2004/42/EC-limit value
The Volatile Organic Compounds amount is 75 g/litre of paint. VOC content of paint (thinned 10 % by volume) is 65 g/l
