15550 KANEPOX MASTICOAT A Component: 15550 B Component: 0363

PRODUCT 15550 KANEPOX MASTICOAT is an epoxy-polyamine based, two component, zinc phosphate
DESCRIPTION containing, high built, self priming mastic coating with low volatile organic content (VOC). It is
specially designed as a surface tolerant coating with excellent adhesion on marginally prepared steel
surfaces and a wide range of existing coatings. Applied coating could dry down to 0°C. It is most
often used in those applications where high film thickness in one coat is required.

RECOMMENDED USE Multi-purpose tolerant primer/midcoat (one coat where UV resistance is not important) of the
paint systems on mechanically cleaned steel surfaces without blasting or surfaces with existing
coating for;

• Moist steel surfaces. • Petrochemical plants.

• Industrial and marine structures (including concrete surfaces).
• Ship building and maintenance industry, below or above water.
• Bridge structures, below or above water.

SAFETY Surfaces must be dry, clean, free of oil, grease and other foreign material.
PRECAUTIONS
New Steel Surfaces: Power tool cleaning to St2-St3 according to ISO 8501-1. Surface blasting to
near white metal surface cleanliness according to SSPC-SP10 or ISO 8501-1 Sa ½ will improve
performance. Depending on ambient conditions, power tool cleaned or blasted surfaces must be
primed in maximum 5 hours with 15550 KANEPOX MASTICOAT.

Previously Painted Surfaces: If the aged coating is in a good condition, it is slightly sanded and
cleaned by pressurized fresh water cleaning to remove the dust and other contaminations.
Otherwise remove all the cracked and peeling paint by using hand tools to a cleanliness of St 2–St
3 according to ISO 8501-1. If applicable blast cleaning to Sa 2-Sa 2½ according to ISO 8501-1
level to get better results. Water jetting to a minimum degree of Wa 2 ½ (ISO 8501-4:2006) is also
applicable as an alternative to abrasive blasting. A flash rust degree of maximum M (ISO
8501-4:2006) is acceptable before application.

Primed/Midcoated Surfaces: Be sure that overcoating period is not exceeded. Otherwise the
surfaces must be blasted to have a surface profile.

The Surfaces Other Than Steel: Contact KANAT Project Group for the galvanized, aluminium,
plastic surfaces.

Touch-up: Remove all dust, dirt and other foreign material and keep dry. Clean the surface to St
2-St 3 level mechanically according to ISO 8501-1 and complete the touch-up application as soon
as possible. 15550 KANEPOX MASTICOAT can be safely used for touch-up.

APPLICATION This is a two-component paint. Do not mix more material than you plan to use within the listed pot
PROCEDURES life. Complete containers must be mixed at one time. DO NOT MIX PARTIAL QUANTITIES FROM
(Mixing Procedure) CONTAINERS OR PROPER COMPONENT RATIOS MAY NOT BE OBTAINED. Prior to mixing,
components A Base and B Hardener should be at room temperature (60-75° F/16-24°C). Combine
2,8 parts by weight of Part B Hardener with 24 parts by weight of Part A Base. Homogenize the
mixture with a power mixer, add thinner if necessary and use mixed product must be used within
1,5 hours (20ºC) without induction time.

MIXING RATIO 24 Parts A Comp. + 2,8 Parts B Comp.

(by weight)

APPLICATION For the best results;

CONDITIONS Air Temperature: 0°C minimum, 35°C maximum
Surface Temperature: At least 3°C above dew point, 0°C minimum and 45°C maximum.
Relative Humidity: 80% maximum.
Good ventilation is required during application.

APPLICATION Stripe coat all crevices, welds and sharp angles. Apply paint at the recommended film thickness
and spreading rate. Application of coating above maximum or below minimum recommended
spreading rate may adversely affect coating performance. Maximum coating interval is 30 days.
Do not apply more than 275 microns (11 mils) WFT to prevent sagging. When using spray
application, use a 50% overlap with each pass of the gun to avoid holidays, bare areas and
pinholes. If necessary, cross spray at a right angle.

PRECAUTIONS • Recoating period is minimum 8-10 hours and maximum 1 month (20°C). Recoating interval
depends on temperature, humidity and film thickness. If maximum recoating time is exceeded
abrade surface, if the surface is highly contaminated apply pressurized fresh water cleaning
before recoating.

• Condensation forming on the coating during early times of curing may result in longer cure
times, solvent entrapment, premature failure, discoloration or a surface haze or blush that must
be removed before recoating.

• High temperatures decrease resistance properties of epoxy based products. Epoxy based
products also have a tendency to yellowing, chalking and have limited gloss retention on exterior
surfaces.

• Use only KANAT THINNER 0625 for thinning paint to be applied on previously painted surfaces.
