PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS
The detailed sunvea*** working procedures should be consulted prior to use.
Maximum film build in one coat is best attained by airless spray. When applying by methods other than airless spray, the required film build is unlikely to be achieved.
Low or high temperature may require specific application techniques to achieve maximum film
build. Over-application of sunvea*** will extend both the minimum overcoating periods and handing times.
When applying sunvea*** by bush, it may be necessary to apply multiple coats to achieve the total specified system dry film thickness.
Surface temperature must always be a minimum of 3℃ (5℉) above dew point.
When applying sunvea*** in confined spaces ensure adequate ventilation.
The finished appearance of sunvea*** is dependent on application method. For Visible areas spray application is preferred. High decorative finishes may require additional preparation before application of sealer coat. The final surface finish is dependent on application method. A void using a mixture of application methods whenever possible.
Condensation occurring during or immediately after application may result in a matt of finish and an inferior film. Sunvea *** should be protected from pooling or running water, condensation /high humidity and chemical attack at all times. Sunvea*** is not designed for frequent water immersion/soaking.
Good initial durability allows for up to 6 months exterior exposure (in ISO 12944 C2) without the requirement for a sealer provided there is no pooled/heavy running water, or frequent high humidity/condensation.
