·          Resistance to elevated temperatures

·          Long-term durability and weather resistance

 

Limitations 

Do not apply at temperatures below 60°F (16°C) or under conditions where temperatures may drop below 60°F (16°C) within 24 hrs after application. Do not apply Thurmalox 8886 series when the surface temperature is less than 5°F above the dew point.  Do not apply to previously coated surfaces without checking for coating compatibility and adhesion to previously primed or coated surfaces.

 

Substrates

Clean, smooth carbon-steel stainless steel, blasted steel, phosphatized steel, galvanized, copper, aluminum, and primed steel.

 

Surface Preparation

Surface must be clean and dry.  Remove all oil, grease, soil, drawing and cutting compounds, and other foreign matter detrimental to the adhesion of this coating as outlined in SSPC-SP 1 “Solvent Cleaning”.

 

All machined steel, copper and aluminum surfaces are to be prepared according to SSPC-TR/NACE 6G194 (phosphate cleaning) and all carbon steel and cast iron surfaces are to be prepared following “SSPC-SP10 Near-white Blast Cleaning Standard” leaving a 2 – 2.5 mil profile in all blasted surfaces.

 

Mixing

Thurmalox 8886 is a two component coating consisting of part A and part B which must be mixed together before use.  The mix ratio for Thurmalox 8886 is two (2) to one (1) by volume.  The individual component should be mixed separately to disperse pigment uniformly.  Add part B to part A and mix thoroughly with a power mixer until mixed completely and of a uniform color.  Do not open container until ready to use.  Keep lid on container when not in use.

 

Pot Life

Thurmalox 8886 is a two (2) component product which has a pot life of 12 hours at 70°F (21°C).  Keep container closed when not in use.  If a skin forms on surface, do not mix in, remove from container.
