| Ideal Uses |
Coating aluminium, steel and galvanised surfaces above the waterline, Protecting already rusted tanks and machinery, Resisting damage in aggressive climatic conditions, Resisting weathering effects on pipes and pumps, Providing long lasting protection against corrosion for new steelwork
|
| Surface Preparation |
First all surfaces must be clean, dry and free from oil, grease and other surface contaminants. Remove all scale; loose and flaking rust and old paint back to a sound surface and edge and feather in any sharp edges. Surfaces exposed to chemicals (acids, alkali or salt deposits) should be washed using copious amounts of water or steam cleaned. Severely contaminated surfaces should be cleaned using an appropriate solvent.
|
| Applying Owatrol GLV to new steel & aluminimum |
Prime new steel with 1 coat of Marine Oil and allow to dry for 24 hours. Then apply 1 coat of Owatrol GLV. For new steel or aluminium that will be subject to aggressive climatic conditions a 2nd coat is advisable.
|
| Applying Owatrol GLV to clean, lightly rusted or new unpainted rusty steel |
Apply 2 coats of Owatrol ALU allowing drying time between coats.
|
| Applying Owatrol GLV to old or severely rusted surfaces |
Apply wet on wet applications of Marine Oil until the rust is fully saturated and allow to dry. Saturation is indicated by a uniform glossy appearance to the surface when the Marine Oil is dry. Next apply 2 coats of Owatrol GLV allowing drying time between coats.
|
| Applying Owatrol GLV to previously coated surfaces |
Spot prime all exposed metal with Marine Oil or 1 coat of Owatrol GLV depending on the severity of the rust and allow to dry. Next apply 2 coats of Owatrol GLV over the entire area; allowing drying time between coats.
|
| Maintenance |
Maintenance is easy and frequency will depend on the conditions that the coated surface is exposed to. Thoroughly clean all surfaces to be coated ensuring any oil, grease and other surface contaminants are removed. Remove all loose and flaking material and feather in any sharp edges. Then apply a single application of Owatrol GLV to all areas where exposed metal or rust is showingthrough and allow to dry. If desired a further application of Owatrol GLV may be applied to the entire surface.
|
| Clean Up |
Clean all tools and equipment with mineral spirits while still wet. If allowed to dry, remove with paint stripper. Store and maintain equipment as directed by manufacturer.
|
| Things to Remember |
Cover everything you do not wish to paint, Apply between 5°C and 35°C, Do not apply in direct sunlight or on to hot surfaces
