Surface Preparation

1. To ensure optimum long term coating system performance, surfaces must be clean, dry and free from dirt, oil grease, salts, welding flux, oxides, old paint or other foreign matter.
2. Prepare surface by power washing, vapor degreasing, solvent cleaning or other chemical and mechanical methods.
3. Surface cleaning methods recommended will depend upon type of foreign matter to be removed and condition of substrate.  Consult Dampney Technical Service for specific recommendations.

Mixing

Redisperse any settled pigments by stirring with a paint paddle followed by thorough mixing to a uniform consistency with an explosion-proof or sir-driven power mixer.  Do not open containers until ready to use.  Keep lid on container when not in use.

Application Guidelines

1. One coat of Thurmalox 270/290 series coatings at 1.0 mil (25 microns) is suitable for use on stoves and other hearth accessories.
2. For optimum protection apply two coats of Thurmalox 270 series coatings to a dry film thickness of 1.0 mil (25 microns) per coat.  Total recommended dry film thickness is 2.0 mils (50 microns).
3. The number of coats of Thurmalox 270/290 series coatings needed depends upon service conditions of equipment.

Application Equipment

Apply by airless, conventional or HVLP spray methods.  Application by roller is permissible, but not recommended.  Application by brush is also not recommended except for porous surfaces such as cast iron.
