The following are guidelines for specifying and applying Permafluor™:
Pretreatment – The aluminum shall be thoroughly cleaned using
a multi-stage cleaning process to remove organic and inorganic
surface soils and residual oxides. Apply a chemical conversion coating
to which organic coatings will firmly adhere.
Primer – The cleaned and treated substrate shall be primed to a
thickness of 0.2 – 0.3 mils using approved factory application methods.
Paint – The Permafluor™ paint system shall contain 70% PVDF
(Hylar 5000® or Kynar 500®) resin and durable ceramic pigments.
It shall be factory applied and oven baked for a topcoat film thickness
of 1.0 mil minimum. Clear topcoat, if required, shall be applied at
0.4 – 0.8 mils.
