BARE FIBERGLASS OR EPOXY: Remove all surface contamination using Fiberglass Surface Prep YMA601, flush with fresh water. Allow to dry. Sand with 80 grade (grit) paper. Remove sanding residue. Wipe with Fiberglass Solvent Wash 202.
BARE WOOD: Sand with 80-180 grade (grit) paper. Remove oil from oily woods (eg teak), using Special Thinner 216 or 2316N. Change rags frequently.
STEEL HULLS: Degrease by wiping with a rag soaked in Fiberglass Solvent Wash 202. Gritblast to near white metal surface. A surface profile of 2-3 mils (50-75 microns) is recommended. If gritblasting is not possible, grind the metal suface with 2436 grit abrasive discs to a uniform, clean, bright metal surface 2-3 mils (50-75 microns) anchor pattern. Remove sanding residue and immediately apply Interprotect 2000E.
ALUMINUM: Degrease by wiping with a rag soaked in Fiberglass Solvent Wash 202. For the Advanced Performance System grit blast or grind surface, using aluminium compatible materials, to completely remove any aluminium oxide present on the surface. A surface profile of 3-4 mils (75-100 microns) is recommended. Wipe with Fiberglass Solvent Wash 202. Apply the first coat of Interprotect 2000E as soon as possible after the surface preparation. If gritblasting is not possible, grind the metal surface with 24-36 grit abrasive discs to a uniform, clean, bright metal surface 3-4mils (75100-microns) anchor pattern. Remove sanding residue and immediately apply Interprotect 2000E.
APPLICATION INFORMATION: If filling is required, use appropriate filler after the first coat of Interprotect 2000E has been applied. Before painting, remove any dust with a dust wipe. Only 1 coat is required when used as a tie coat over Interprime 450 VOC. Stir or shake individual components thoroughly. Add curing agent to the base at 1 part curing agent to 3 parts base (by volume). Stir and leave for 20 minutes to allow the bubbles to disperse. Airless Spray Pressure: 165 bar/2400 psi. Tip Size: 1880-2680, 0.44-0.53mm/17-21 thou. Conventional Spray Pressure Pot: Pressure: 3.44-4.47 bar/50-65 psi (gun pressure); 10-15 psi (pot pressure). Tip Size: 1.5-1.8 mm/60-70 thou. Siphon Cup: Pressure: 3.44-4.47 bar/50-65 psi - gun pressure. Tip Size: 1.8-2.2 mm/70-85 thou. Pressure: <2 bar (Pot)/3-4 bar (Atomising). Thin using 10-15% 2316N or YTA910. Use a natural bristle brush. Use a 3/8" nap solvent resistant roller. r To figure out how much paint is necessary, calculate as follows: Wetted Surface Area (WSA) = LOA x Beam x 0.85, then divide the WSA by 60 when brushing/rollering or 45 when spraying to determine the number of gallons necessary to reach 10 mils. Do not use below 5°C/41°F. Do not apply over conventional (one-pack) coatings. Do not apply when there is a chance of condensation forming on the surface. Ambient temperature should be minimum 5°C/41°F and maximum 35°C/95°F. Product temperature should be minimum 10°C/50°F and maximum 35°C/95°F. Substrate temperature should be minimum 5° C/41°F and maximum 35°C/95°F. Apply to clean, dry, properly prepared surfaces only. Do not apply over one part paints. When applying vinyl antifoulings such as VC Offshore and Baltoplate® to Interprotect, apply an extra coat and allow epoxy to cure overnight then sand with 80 grade (grit) paper to avoid wrinkling. When overcoating with VC 17m or VC 17m Extra allow Interprotect 2000E to dry for 24 - 36 hours, then sand with 180-220 grit sand paper.
