COVERAGE
Approximately 145 sq. ft./quart.
SURFACE PREPARATION
All surfaces must be clean of dirt and release agents, dry, firm and free of rust and mill scale. All surfaces should be roughened. METCOTE will provide a fair bond to smooth surfaces, but roughening the surface will greatly improve adhesion.
Iron
Abrade the surface with 60 to 80 grit sand paper. If abrasive blasting is desired, the blast profile should not exceed 50 microns (or 2 mils).
Aluminum
Abrade with 60 to 80 grit sandpaper, then rinse with solvent (listed above).
NOTE: The finished surface on all substrates should have a scored, roughened profile for best adhesion.
APPLICATION
- Stir METCOTE™ well.
- Apply thinly (less than 1.7 mils) by brush or roller
- For conventional spray application, thin with lacquer thinners (approx 20%) to 16-20 secs (Ford Cup 4).
APPLICATION TEMPERATURE
23°F - 122°F
NOTE: Lacquer thinners must not come into contact with DURABAK™ or DURABAK 18™ Allow METCOTE™ to dry completely before overcoating with either DURABAK™ or DURABAK 18™ 4 hours after METCOTE is applied.
