Application:
- Substrate pre-treatment: The substrate must be clean, dry and free from dust, grease, oil, and other contamination. To achieve optimum performance and adhesion ALEXSEAL Finish Primer 442 is recommended. Final sanding of ALEXSEAL Finish Primer 442 should be smooth sanded with 280 - 400 grit sand paper. ALEXSEAL Topcoat should be applied within 4 days, 2 days if outside after sanding to ensure adhesion. For inside applications talk about extended times with your sales rep.
- Application by spraying: Apply per coat a wet film thickness (WFT) of 50 - 75 microns (2 - 3 mils). Allow 20 - 60 minutes tack up between coats.
- Application by brush/rolling: Apply 2 to 3 coats to a wet film thickness (WFT) of 50 - 75 microns (2 - 3 mils) per coat. Each coat should dry to a tape dry stage, 12 - 24 hrs. Sand with 320 - 400 between coats.
- Application by rolling only: A5018 Roll Additive is used to reduce the need to tip off with a brush when roller applying the Topcoat 501.
