MIXING
-
American colour epoxy zinc rich primer is supplied in two packs. Stir the base and
hardener separately, If settling is observed in the base or hardener, loosen the settled
material with the help of hand stirrer followed by power driven stirrer at low speed for
quick homogenous mixing.
-
Mix hardener gradually into the base under continuous stirring as per the mixing ratio.
Once the unit has been mixed, it should be consumed within the working pot life. In case
of part mixing (which should be avoided), close the lids of containers tightly to avoid
contact with atmospheric moisture.
-
Thinner should be added after mixing the components and post the induction time.
Addition of too much thinner will lead to reduced sag resistance.

SAFETY INFORMATION
-
As a general safety measure, inhalation of solvent vapours or paint mist and contact of
liquid paint with skin & eyes, should be avoided. Forced ventilation should be provided
when applying paint in confined spaces or stagnant air. Even when ventilation is
provided, respiratory, skin and eye protection are always recommended when spraying
paint.
