Product Code: SZS-A1010Fluid Type: Zinc AerosolColour: GreyPackaging: 400g
Grey Zinc is a zinc rich, high performance heavy duty corrosion inhibitive primer suitable for use on ferrous metals such as steel, iron and galvanised iron. Grey Zinc contains 99% pure zinc and over 91% metallic zinc pigment in the dry film. It is used extensively in metal fabrication and gives superior galvanic protection to weld joints.
Used extensively in metal fabrication and gives superior galvanic protection to weld joints.
Suitable Surfaces: Steel, wrought iron, galvanised iron.
Steel, wrought iron, galvanised iron.
Between 10°C and 40°C. Avoid use in windy conditions.
Surface should be clean, dry and free from contaminants such as rust, oil, grease, dirt and salt. Welds should be ground back to clean white metal. Thoroughly sand new metal and lightly sand previously painted surfaces to ensure maximum adhesion. Remove loose rust and flaking paint with a wire brush, scraper or mechanical sander. Grey Zinc should not be painted over rusty steel. For best results abrasive blast clean to AS1627.4 Class 2. Correct surface preparation is essential for obtaining maximum coating performance.
Before spraying, cover surrounding areas to protect from overspray. Shake can for at leas 45 seconds AFTER the mixing ball begins to rattle. Shake can occasionally during use. Hold can upright approximately 20-25cm from the surface. Spray with a smooth sweeping motion. To prevent paint from sagging, apply several light mist coats rather than one heavy coat. Adjust nozzle to achieve desired spray pattern. Use horizontal setting to spray up and down and the vertical setting to spray across.
Approximately 2m2 per can (depending on the surface and amount of overspray).
Touch dry in 20 minutes (25°C). recoat after 1 hour. Hard dry in 16-24 hours. Drying will be slower in cold and humid conditions, in the absence of ventilation or where heavy film build is applied.
Prevent blocking by holding the can upside down and spraying until only clear gas escapes. Also wipe pray tip of nozzle clean. Clean up wet paint with mineral turpentine, xylene or general purpose thinner.
Store locked up. Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50°C/122°F. Store in well-ventilated place.
Dispose of contents/container according to regional regulations.
