SURFACE PREPARATION

Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt, and chemical contaminants by washing the surface with Krud Kutter® PRO Cleaner Degreaser. Mold and mildew must be cleaned with Krud Kutter PRO One Step Cleaner & Disinfectant. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and allow to fully dry. All surfaces must be dry at time of application.

APPLICATION

Apply two coats to an abrasive blast cleaned surface. The ROCThane Direct-To-Metal Urethane Mastic 9800 can accommodate wet-on-wet recoat after 2 hours of dry time. However, this process should be conducted by experienced painters only. Application must be done by spray, and since a wet film thickness gauge is impractical during the application of the second coat, care must be used to avoid excessive film build. Excessive film thickness or application of the second coat before the recommended dry time (2 hours) can result with microwrinkling or pinholes; either of which will lower the gloss of the finish. Wet-on-wet application of the ROCThane Direct-To-Metal Urethane Mastic 9800 finish can also be done over a first coat of ROCEpoxy Direct-To-Metal Epoxy Mastic 9100 (except 9115) or
the ROCEpoxy High Solids Epoxy Primer HS9300.
