Application instructions
Surface Preparation Any corroded steel in the repair area and all loose scale and corrosion deposits should be fully exposed. Steel should be cleaned to a bright condition paying particular attention to the back of exposed steel bars. Grit-blasting is recommended for this process. Where corrosion has occured due to the presence of chlorides, the steel should be high-pressure washed with clean water immediately after grit-blasting to remove corrosion products from pits and imperfections within its surface.
ApplicationThe application of Nitocote AP35 acrylic primer must take place as soon as possible to a dry steel surface after completion of the preparation work but always within 3 hours. One full and unbroken coat of Nitocote AP35 acrylic primer shall be applied by suitable brush making sure the surfacesof the steel are properly coated. A small brush is generally suitable for this purpose. It shall be allowed to dry fully before continuing. If in doubt of having achieved an unbroken coating,a second application should be made as soon as the first coat is fully dry (generally between 45 minutes and one hour) The application of concrete repair materials should proceedas soon as the Nitocote AP35 acrylic primer is fully dry ( generally 45 mins. to 1 hour ). Minimum application temperature for Nitocote AP35 acrylic primer is 100 C.
Equipment cleaningImmediately after use, all tools shall be washed with clean water.
