Surface preparation
NEW SURFACE: 1. Degrease areas where grease, oil, soil and other surface contamination exist in accordance with SSPC-SP1 Solvent Cleaning. (Use GTC002 Thinner). 2. Wire brush/Mechanical Power Tool Clean areas where laitance, surface porosity and loosely adhering foreign material exist in accordance with SSPC-SP2 and/or SSPC-SP3 Standards. 3. Surfaces to be coated must be dry, clean and dust free prior to paint application process. OLD/PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES: 1. Degrease areas where grease, oil and other surface contamination exist in accordance with SSPC-SP1 Solvent Cleaning. (Use GTC002 Thinner). 2. Remove all blistered, cracked and brittle paint coats off the surface. 3. Detached coats with inadequate adhesion must be scraped off to a firm edge. 4. Glossy paint coatings must be sanded/roughened to ensure proper intercoat adhesion characteristics. 5. Surfaces to be coated must be dry, clean and contamination free prior to paint application process.
Application details
USAGE OF GTC ELASTOMERIC PRIMER: Intended for a single coat application over Exterior/Interior porous surface.
Mixing and thinning
Material must be properly mixed and is recommended for thinning upto 20 % by volume with fresh water only. METHOD OF APPLICATION: GTC Elastomeric Primer can be applied by Brush, Roller, Conventional and Airless Spray.
Important restrictions
(1) For best results over porous surfaces brush application is recommended as this method helps achieving maximum penetration and adhesion into the substrate.
Cleaning tools
For cleaning tools and equipments use fresh water only.
Application conditions
At a temperature ranging 5ºC (41°F) to 40ºC (104 ºF) . Relative humidity is below 75%.
Storage and handling
Product must be stored as per local regulations and should be kept in dry well ventilated location far from heat and direct sunlight. Can should be tightly closed after use. Mix well before use. Storage temperature range between 5ºC (41°F) to 40ºC (104 ºF).
Safety precautions
The following notes should be considered when using/applying painting material:- (a) Take precautions to prevent material entering the eyes (goggles should be worn, irrigate the eyes with water when become contaminated and obtain medical care at once). (b) Take precautions to avoid skin contact (gloves should be worn, barrier cream should be used). (c) Ensure that repeated contact of paint with skin is avoided. (d) Provide adequate ventilation. (Face masks must be worn). (e) Keep away from sparks and open flames (for solvent-based materials).
