| Revamping Metal Surfaces |
| 1). Pre-Painting |
| |
- Surfaces should be free from dirt, dust, grease, rust or moisture. Areas not being painted must be covered by masking tape, paper and/or cloth.
|
| |
| 2). Surface Preparation |
| |
- De-grease and de-rust ferrous metal substrates by suitable treatment.
- For nonferrous metal substrates like Aluminium, Galvanised Iron or Tin, pre-treat the surface. For ferrous metal substrates apply by brushing.
- If necessary, Paste Filler is recommended to fill up dents and rectify surface imperfections.
- Ensure that the surface is free from moisture and loose matter.
- Apply one more coat of corrosion resistance by brushing or spraying to cover puttied areas
- For best results, allow the primer coat to dry for 6 hours and dry sand with emery paper no. 320 before application of subsequent coat..
|
| |
| 3). Painting |
| |
- For best results: Allow the surface to dry overnight after application of primer as above.
- Apply topcoat using the recommended thinner. For best results, apply two coats allowing 8 hours of drying time between two coats.
- The first coat should be wet sanded with waterproof emery paper grade 400 before applying the second coat.
