| Generic Type | Ethyl Silicate Inorganic Zinc-Rich | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Common Usage | Self-curing, primer/finish with tenacious bonding and abrasion resistance qualities. Its galvanic action resists undercutting. Excellent stand alone performance in high temperature or long-term atmospheric exposure. Finish with specialized topcoats to improve aesthetics, increase long-term performance or protect the primer from attack in aggressive exposures. | |||||||||
| Colors | Greenish-gray | |||||||||
| Topcoats | Series 6, 27, 39, 46H-413, 66, N69, 104, 113, 114, 161 | |||||||||
| Volume Solids | 65.0 ± 2.0% (mixed) void content method | |||||||||
| Recommended DFT | 2.0 to 3.5 mils (50 to 90 microns) per coat. | |||||||||
| Curing Time |
Moisture is required to achieve proper cure. Curing time will vary with temperature and humidity. At relative humidities below 30%, it may be necessary to gently spray the coated surface with water to achieve proper cure and to minimize recoat time. Consult your Tnemec representative for specific recommendations. Ventilation: When used as a tank lining or in enclosed areas, provide adequate ventilation during application and cure. Reference ventilation guidelines contained in the latest edition of AWWA D 102. |
