Recommended use 

Anticorrosive  protection of new and repairable steel, zinc-plated  and aluminum structures  used  in atmospheric conditions of all  macroclimate areas, atmosphere types and placement categories  according to GOST 15150.  Coating: oil-, gasoline-proof, resistant to oil and petroleum products  spills, sea and fresh water, short-term exposure  to  hot water and steam;  exposure to aggressive  environments,  sudden temperature changes (from minus 60 to plus 60 °C).
Used as:

• primer in complex systems of coatings with VINICOR-62 enamel (TU 20.30.12-001-54359536-2018), as well as with other enamels and primer-enamels on vinyl, vinyl epoxy and  chlorinated rubber bases;
• independent coating.

It is allowed to apply a primer  on consolidated residual corrosion products  and/or old coatings based on alkyd, vinyl, vinyl-epoxy or epoxy materials.

Surface preparation

Steel surface:

• degrease metal surface to 1 grade according to GOST 9.402;
• minimum:  power and hand  tool  cleaning of rust to  3 or 4  grade  according to GOST 9.402 (St 2 according to ISO 8501-1);
• recommended: abrasive blast  cleaning  from scale, rust and traces of old paint to 2  grade according to GOST 9.402 (Sa 2 ½ according to ISO 8501-1);
• remove dust.

Zinc-plated surface:

• degrease metal surface to 1 grade according to GOST 9.402;
• the surface should have a roughness (if necessary,  use polishing  paper or a non-metallic abrasive);
• remove dust.

Aluminum surface:

• degrease the metal surface to 1 grade according to GOST 9.402;
• manual or  tool  cleaning using polishing paper or non-metallic abrasive to create a rough surface;
• remove dust.

Before applying the second layer, the coating shall be dry, clean, oil and dust shall be removed.

Application 

• mix base thoroughly to homogenous condition before application;
• with constant stirring, add a hardener to the base and mix thoroughly.

The ratio of the base and EN-01 hardener 100:3.1 (by mass).

• if necessary, the  composition should be diluted to the working viscosity;

The material is recommended to be applied in the plant and field conditions at a temperature from minus 10 to plus 35 °C and relative air humidity not more than 85 %. 
The temperature of the painted surface shall be above the dew point by at least 3 °C. Prepared primer shall be of temperature at least 15 °C.
The primer is recommended to be applied in 1-2 layers using airless,  conventional  (air) spray,  by brush/roller.
The overlapping interval  between the layers of primer at temperature of 20 °C  –  not less than  3  hours. Drying time depends on the temperature of surface and ambient air, degree of dilution of  the material, thickness of coating, efficiency of ventilation and relative air humidity.
Holding time of the coating  before operating in aggressive conditions is not less than  7 days at temperature from 15 to 22 °С.

Storage and handling

The material is delivered in packages: base and hardener packed in metal buckets and metal cans respectively depending on the set weight.
Storage conditions of primer components –  according to GOST 9980.5 (at temperature from minus 40 to plus 40 °C). The container shall be protected from atmospheric condensation and direct sunlight.
The  shelf life  is  determined by warranty storage of the base (24 months) and hardener (12 months) starting with the manufacture date

Precautions

When working with the material, one shall observe the existing sectoral standard norms and requirements and safety measures as specified on the package label.
One shall use personal protective equipment (goggles, face masks and respirators) and avoid inhalation of thinners and contact of the composition or its components with skin, eye mucosa, respiratory channels; use inside the premises is allowed only in case sufficient ventilation is provided.
The material and its components (base and hardener) are fire-hazardous!

The information is of general character, without consideration to the object specific nature. Use of materials for other purposes not specified here or in case other influencing factors are present shall be approved by the  VMP Holding CJSC  in writing. In case of absence of such approval the manufacturer is not held liable for the improper use of the material and the buyer falls from the right to present claims connected with the coating quality.
