NOTE: drying times are dependent on air and steel temperature,
applied film thickness, ventilation and other environmental conditions.
Times are proportionally shorter at higher temperature and longer at
lower temperatures. Prior to recoating ensure the surface is clean.
Maximum recoating time intervals are dependent on temperature,
degree of weathering and service conditions of the complete coating
system. Consult your OAL representative for specific
recommendations.
