• Contains a high amount of rust inhibitors
• Easy to apply by brush, roller or spray
• First class adhesion on a second class surface

Surface Preparation

Remove grease, oil and all other surface contaminations by alkaline or high pressure (steam) cleaning in combination with appropriate detergents. Remove loose rust, mill scale and deteriorated coatings by hand or power tool cleaning to St 2/3 (ISO 8501-01 : 1988). Large areas may be brush-off blasted to Sa 2 (ISO 8501-01 : 1988), blast profile max. 50 µm. Sand previous coatings which are in good condition to remove gloss and to roughen the surface slightly, check compatibility. The surface must be clean and dry during application.
