Instructions for Use

Mixing Instructions:
Prior to mixing, thoroughly shake the base component. Add the activator component to
the base component and stir well, maintain constant agitation for 10 minutes to ensure
proper mixing.
Note: It is important to condition the paint for 24 hours prior to mixing by placing all
materials in the shop or hangar, with ambient temperatures between 13° and 35°C (55°
to 95°F). The minimum temperature of the paint components should be 13°C (55°F)
prior to mixing.

Application Guidelines
Recommended Application conditions:
Temperature 15 - 30°C (59 - 86°F)

Relative Humidity 20 - 90%
Application:
Ground the aircraft and the application equipment before priming. Stir the primer slowly
during the application. The suggested film thickness is 20 to 30 microns (0.8 to 1.2
mils). This can be accomplished with one medium coat with a 50% overlap.
These application guidelines represent PPG’s best advice in standard conditions. Some
parameters will be influenced by environmental conditions, equipment settings, and
other variables.
Theoretical Coverage:
24 square meters/liter at 25 microns dry film (979 square feet/gallon at 1 mil dry film)
Recommended dry film thickness; 20 to 30 microns (0.8 to 1.2 mils)
Dry Film Density:

1.72 grams/cubic centimeter (14.33 pound/gallon)
Dry Film Weight:

43 grams/square meter at 25 microns dry film (0.0088 pounds/square feet at 1 mil dry
film)
