The data given is for guideline only. The physical values are subject to normal manufacturing tolerances, colour and testing variances
The volume solids indicated are as per ASTM D 2697 air drying method.
The actual drying time/ overcoat interval may be shorter or longer, depending on film thickness, ventilation, humidity, temperature etc.
The information provided above is at 30° C and 65% relative humidity.
Surface Preparation
General:
• Steel, non-ferrous metals and galvanised surfaces; remove oil, grease or other contaminants from the surface
• Alloys that oxidise should be lightly sanded to remove all loose materials from the surface
• Substrate temperature should be at least 3°C above dew point but not above 50°C.
• Relative humidity should be below 85%
• Good ventilation is required in confined areas to ensure proper curing
Mixing
• Etch Primer IS 5666is 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 lower RPM) 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.

Cleaning
• Do not allow the product to remain in hoses, gun or spray equipment. Clean all equipment immediately after
use with Thinner T 180. It is recommended to periodically flush out spray equipment during the course of the
working day. The frequency of cleaning will depend on amount sprayed, temperature and time gap.
• All surplus material and empty containers should be disposed of in accordance with appropriate regional
legislation.
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.
