285 S.T. Epoxy

285 S.T. Epoxy is a two pack surface tolerant epoxy polyamine primer / topcoat.

Features Include:

• Requires minimum surface preparation.
• Good surface wetting and anticorrosive properties.
• It can be applied over most aged coatings.
• It can be top-coated with a number of industrial coatings.
• Good solvent and chemical resistance.
• High solids.

Typical Areas Of Application Are:

• Structural steel and sheet metal are used in the construction, transportation, industrial and mining industries.
• Concrete floors, factory, showroom and workshop walls, etc.

Surface Preparation:

• When overcoating, Aged paint coatings should be tested for adhesion using Crosshatch or Crosscut methods. If the aged paint coating lifts, remove it.
• Remove all rust, oxides, millscale and lose paint from metal surface.
• Round off all sharp edges, welding joints and weld spatter.
• All surfaces to be painted should be clean and free from dust, dirt, oil, grease and moisture.
• All abrasive blast-clean ferrous surfaces should be coated within 4 hours to avoid flash rusting.
• Do not apply at temperatures below 10’ Celsius. Do not apply at relative humidity above 85% or when the substrate surface is less than 3’ Celsius above dewpond.
• Applied 285 ST Epoxy coat subjected to exterior exposure for an extended period of time should be accessed for “Chalking” before applying a suitable topcoat to achieve optimum inter-coat adhesion.

Application:

For use by experienced industrial applicators. For best results, mechanical mixing of Part A (base) and Part B (hardener) is recommended.

Mix 285 Part A, 3 parts with 1 Part 285 Part B. Allow to stand for 10 minutes, and then stir again before using.

• Brush or Roller – Thinning is not normally required.
• Conventional Spray – Thin approximately 5-10% and apply 2 coats wet on wet.
• Airless Spray – Thinning is not normally required.
• Clean Up – T180 or T134 All Purpose Thinner.
