NO TCF 0002 2 (2) TEMALAC FD 50 APPLICATION DETAILS Surface preparation Oil, grease, salts and dirt are removed by appropriate means. (ISO 12944-4) Steel surfaces: Blast clean to grade Sa2½. (ISO 8501-1) If blast cleaning is not possible, phosphating is recommended for cold rolled steel to improve adhesion. 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) Primer TEMAPRIME EE, TEMAPRIME EUR, TEMAPRIME GF, TEMAPRIME ML and FONTECRYL 10. Finish TEMALAC FD 50. Application conditions All surfaces must be dry. The temperature of the ambient air, surface or paint should not fall below + 5 ºC during application or drying. Relative humidity should not exceed 80 %. The surface temperature of the steel should remain at least 3 ºC above the dew point. Application By airless spray. Mix the paint thoroughly before use. At airless spray application the paint should be thinned 5 - 15 %. Airless spray nozzle tip 0.011" - 0.015" and nozzle pressure 120 - 180 bar. Spray angle shall be chosen according to the shape of the object. Thinner Thinner 1006. Large surfaces Thinner 1053 (slow). Cleaning of equipment Thinner 1006. VOC The Volatile Organic Compounds amount is 470 g/litre of paint. VOC content in ready to use paint (thinned 15 % by volume) is 522 g/l.
