Surface Preparation

All surface coating systems are dependent on the quality of surface preparation.

Steel

On steel surfaces all rust, dirt and contamination should be removed to expose bright metal to achieve a surface finish to comply with Swedish standard Sa 2.5. Prior to any blast cleaning the surface must be thoroughly degreased. Amplitude of the surface profile should not exceed 75 microns. Use non-reusable, non-metallic grit.

Mixing

Immediately before use, stir the primer resin thoroughly using a mechanical mixer, such as an air-driven drill (400 – 800 rpm) or intrinsically safe electric drill with mixing paddle. 

To spray apply ZED S94 make the following additions of Solvent No. 5:

ZED S94 Supplied Unit Size Solvent No.5 Addition Required
5kg 1.25kg (1.4 litres)
20kg 5kg (5.8 litres)
60kg 15kg (17 litres)
200kg 50kg (58 litres)

Application

Application should take place within three hours of grit blasting the substrate. The substrate must be clean and dry.

Apply evenly to the substrate by brush or roller. For spray application the product must be diluted. Ensure the necessary PPE is worn. The recommended spray equipment is a Graco 23:1 Monark airless spray pump with a ¼" spray line and a spray tip size between 0.025" (25 thou) and 0.035" (35 thou). 

Do not allow the primer to ‘pond’ or ‘pool’. If it is spray applied, any excess material should be removed with a dry roller to prevent ponding. One application of ZED S94 is usually sufficient. Overcoating with Eliminator or other products is recommended to take place as soon as possible in order to minimise the risk of contamination.  

Coverage

  • Hand Grade – 0.2kg/m2
  • Diluted to spray – 0.25kg/m2

Cleaning

All tools and equipment should be cleaned with acetone before the material is allowed to cure.
