POR-15 APPLICATION PROCEDURES
Surface preparation:
Rusted surfaces are best; seasoned metal and sandblasted surfaces are also good.
To coat smooth metal surfaces:
Use POR-15® METAL-READY to prepare surface before painting. Surface must be dry and free of grease, oil, or other foreign substances. Use of 'rust converter' products is not recommended as they may affect bonding of POR-15® to metal. POR-15® likes to adhere to surfaces with 'tooth' rather than smooth, glossy surfaces.
STIR CONTENTS GENTLY AND THOROUGHLY before painting.
Do not shake.
Refrigerate unused portion of POR-15® for longer shelf life.
Apply in thin coats, 1 to 2 mil thickness. Minimum 2 coats.
Topcoat when first coat is dry but with slight finger-drag remaining, usually 4-5 hours.
