How to Apply Two Part Metal and Concrete Gray Primer:
Steel Plus Epoxy Primer CR Surface Preparation:
Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt, and chemical contaminants by washing the surface with BC-4000 cleaner or another suitable cleaner. Thoroughly cured old coatings or new smooth metal may require scuff sanding for maximum adhesion.
Moderate Exposure: Abrasive blast to SSPC-SP-6 commercial blast before priming.
Severe Exposures: an Abrasive blast to SSPC-SP-10 near white blast before priming.
How to Thin Steel Plus Epoxy Primer CR Concrete and Metal Primer:
Only apply metal primer when air and surface temperatures are between 50oF and 100oF and surface temperature is at least 5oF above the dew point.
Roller or Brush Primer: Use as mixed. Dilute with water as needed
Air Atomizing Spraying Primer: Dilute 5-10% with water if needed
Airless Spraying Primer: Normally not needed
Cleanup:
Soap and water
Recommended Topcoats: Steel Plus Epoxy Topcoats, Urethane Topcoats
Equipment Recommended Applying Steel Plus CR:
Filter: Use 30 mesh stainless steel screen or nylon bag when needed
