PRODUCT A two component, epoxy anti-corrosive primer pigmented with zinc phosphate and tolerant of
DESCRIPTION application to damp substrates.
INTENDED USES As a primer coat to provide anti-corrosive protection on steel surfaces produced by wet abrasive
blasting or by ultra high pressure water washing. Interseal 414 will tolerate some surface dampness
and a degree of flash rusting, and can be used as a viable alternative to the addition of flash rust
inhibitors to the wet blasting water.

SURFACE All surfaces to be coated should be clean and free from contamination. Prior to application all
PREPARATION surfaces should be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504:2000.
Surface defects revealed by the blast cleaning process should be ground, filled, or treated in the
appropriate manner.
Interseal 414 is suitable for application to blast cleaned surfaces which were initially to the above
standard but have been allowed to flash rust or "ginger" due to the presence of moisture. The
surface must be free from loose powdery deposits.
May be applied to surfaces prepared to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP6 which have flash
rusted to no worse than Grade HB2½M (refer to International Hydroblasting Standards). It is also
possible to apply to damp surfaces in some circumstances. Further information is available from
International Protective Coatings.
APPLICATION Mixing Material is supplied in two containers as a unit. Always mix a complete unit
in the proportions supplied. Once the unit has been mixed it must be used
within the working pot life specified.
(1) Agitate Base (Part A) with a power agitator.
(2) Combine entire contents of Curing Agent (Part B) with Base
(Part A) and mix thoroughly with power agitator.
Mix Ratio 4.0 part(s) : 1.0 part(s) by volume
Working Pot Life 10°C (50°F) 15°C (59°F) 25°C (77°F) 40°C (104°F)
10 hours 8 hours 5 hours 2 hours

PRODUCT Interseal 414 is not designed for use on surfaces covered with standing or running water, only on
CHARACTERISTICS substrates where traces of surface dampness still remain from the drying process. Globules,
puddles and accumulations of water must be removed (e.g. by blowing off with compressed air)
before application of Interseal 414.
When using approved flash rust inhibitors ensure accumulations of water are dispersed to prevent
the presence of excess soluble salt on the surface. Flash rust inhibitors are not recommended for
use in areas which are likely to be immersed.
Maximum film build in one coat is best attained by airless spray. When applying by methods other
than airless spray, the required film build is unlikely to be achieved.
Application by air spray may require a multiple cross-spray pattern to attain maximum film build.
Low or high temperatures may require specific application techniques to achieve maximum film
build.
Airless spray is the preferred method of application on damp surfaces as the higher particle energy
of the applied film aids moisture displacement from the substrate.
This product will not cure adequately below 5°C (41°F). For maximum performance ambient curing
temperatures should be above 10°C (50°F).
Surface temperature must always be a minimum of 3°C (5°F) above dew point.
Interseal 414 is suitable for use up to 95% relative humidity when the surface is dry, and up to 80%
relative humidity when the surface is damp, otherwise surface moisture will not be transmitted
through the film during the curing process.
When Interseal 414 is allowed to weather before overcoating, ensure surface is clean and free from
loose chalking before application of further coats.
Interseal 414 is preferred for use with systems for chemical environments where zinc based
materials can be subject to attack in both acidic and alkaline conditions.
The maximum overcoating interval will be dependent upon the integrity of the exposed film. A film
of 75 microns (3 mils) dry film thickness will normally be overcoatable after 6 months exposure
provided it is adequately cleaned and any areas of mechanical damage repaired.
Over-application should be avoided as thick films will not be as good a substrate for topcoat
adhesion after ageing as those at the specified thickness. When using as a blast holding primer
avoid over-application as thick films may suffer from cohesive film splitting if subsequent coats are
also over-applied.
Over-application of Interseal 414 will extend both the minimum overcoating periods and handling
times, and may be detrimental to long term overcoating properties.
In common with all epoxies Interseal 414 will chalk and discolour on exterior exposure. However,
these phenomena are not detrimental to anti-corrosive performance.
Note: VOC values are typical and are provided for guidance purpose only. These may be subject
to variation depending on factors such as differences in colour and normal manufacturing
tolerances.
