Application Equipment
Listed below are general equipment guidelines for the application of this product.
Job site conditions may require modifications to these guidelines to achieve the
desired results.
General Guidelines:
Spray Application
(General)
The following spray equipment has been found suitable
and is available from manufacturers such as Binks,
DeVilbiss and Graco.
Conventional
Spray
Pressure pot equipped with dual regulators, 3/8” I.D.
minimum material hose, .070” I.D. fluid tip and
appropriate air cap.
Airless Spray Pump Ratio: 30:1 (min.)*
GPM Output: 2.5 (min.)
Material Hose: 3/8” I.D. (min.)
Tip Size: .017”-.021”
Output PSI: 2100-2300
Filter Size: 60 mesh
*Teflon packings are recommended and available from
the pump manufacturer.
Brush & Roller
(General)
Multiple coats may be required to obtain desired
appearance, recommended dry film thickness and
adequate hiding. Avoid excessive re-brushing or re-
rolling. For best results, tie-in within 10 minutes at 75°F
(24°C).
Brush Use a medium bristle brush.
Roller Use 3/8” nap phenolic core roller.
Mixing & Thinning
Mixing Power mix separately, then combine and power mix.
DO NOT MIX PARTIAL KITS.
Ratio 1:1 Ratio (A to B)
Thinning Normally not required but may thin as follows:
Spray: Up to 15 oz/gal (12%) with Thinner #10.
Brush & Roller: Up to 16 oz/gal (12%) with Thinner #33.
Thinner 236E or 243E may be used as an exempt
thinner in lieu of those listed above. Use of thinners
other than those supplied or recommended by
Carboline may adversely affect product performance
and void product warranty, whether expressed or
implied.
Pot Life
4 Hours at 75°F (24°C) for either 893 SG or LT cure.
Pot life ends when coating thickens and loses
application properties. Pot life times will be less at
higher temperatures.
Cleanup & Safety
Cleanup Use Thinner #2 or Acetone. In case of spillage, absorb
and dispose of in accordance with local applicable
regulations.
Safety Read and follow all caution statements on this product
data sheet and on the MSDS for this product. Employ
normal workmanlike safety precautions. Hypersensitive
persons should wear protective clothing, gloves and use
protective cream on face, hands and all exposed areas.
Ventilation When used in enclosed areas, thorough air circulation
must be used during and after application until the
coating is cured. The ventilation system should be
capable of preventing the solvent vapor concentration
from reaching the lower explosion limit for the solvents
used. User should test and monitor exposure levels to
insure all personnel are below guidelines. If not sure or
if not able to monitor levels, use MSHA/NIOSH
approved respirator.
Caution This product contains flammable solvents. Keep away
from sparks and open flames. All electrical equipment
and installations should be made and grounded in
accordance with the National Electric Code. In areas
where explosion hazards exist, workmen should be
required to use non-ferrous tools and wear conductive
and non-sparking shoes.

This product simply requires the substrate temperature to be above the dew
point. Condensation due to substrate temperatures below the dew point can
cause flash rusting on prepared steel and interfere with proper adhesion to
the substrate. Special application techniques may be required above or
below normal application conditions.
• Surface and ambient temperatures may be reduced to 35°F
when using the (LT) cure.

These times are based on a 4.0-6.0 mil (100-150 micron) dry film thickness
for atmospheric exposures. Higher film thickness, insufficient ventilation or
cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could result in
solvent entrapment and premature failure. Excessive humidity or
condensation on the surface during curing can interfere with the cure, can
cause discoloration and may result in a surface haze. Any haze or blush
must be removed by water washing before recoating. If the maximum
recoat times have been exceeded, the surface must be abraded by sweep
blasting or sanding prior to the application of additional coats. For force
curing, contact Carboline Technical Service for specific requirements.
