66-12947	CLEAR POLYESTER WITH CATALYST

GENERAL DESCRIPTION Pruett-Schaffer’s #66-12947 Clear Polyester is a two component, air drying, solvent thinned, polyisocyanate cured polyester coating. It is designed as a spray applied, heavy duty, high gloss direct to metal anticorrosive coating. RECOMMENDED USES Use to protect metal conduit from corrosion in aggressive environments where chemicals, acid, alkali, salt, water, fuels, and oils are present. This coating exhibits excellent flexibility and resistance to impact cracking, and has very good adhesion to difficult metal substrates. It is not recommended for immersion service. SURFACE PREPARATION Remove all oil, grease or foreign substances with chemical, detergent or solvent cleaning. MIXING INSTRUCTIONS Mix 3 parts by volume #66-12947 with 1 part 66-13333 Hardener. Product should be applied with plural component spray equipment ONLY. 66-12947 Clear Component will not dry unless mixed with 66-13333 Hardener!	THINNING Thin if necessary for spraying with xylol or methyl isobutyl ketone. Add a little solvent at a time to the mixed system with constant gentle agitation to a maximum of 5% by volume. APPLICATION EQUIPMENT May be applied by air assisted or airless spray. Diameter of conduit will determine tip size to use. Apply at 5 mils wet film thickness to yield 2 mils dry film thickness. Best results are obtained from films of 1-2 dry mils, films thicker than 2 mils may bubble. Apply when air and substrate temperatures are between 50-110 ^0F. CURE TIMES & TEMPERATURES Cures set-to-touch in 1.5 to 3 hours at 75 ^0F, cures to handle in 24 hours. Although re-coating is not normally necessary, the coating may be touched up or recoated. The recoat window is 8 to 48 hours; waiting longer may result in reduced adhesion of the second coat. Allow 7-10 days cure at 75 ^0F before placing into severe service, longer cure times may be necessary if the ambient temperature is significantly lower.	CLEANUP Clean equipment with xylol or methyl isobutyl ketone before the film cures. ENVIRONMENTAL This product contains no lead, chromate, or zinc.
