M-CERAMIC 501 – Epoxy Ceramic High Temperature & Acid Resistant Coating

• All oil and grease must be removed from the surface using an appropriate cleaner such MEK or similar type solvent.
• All surfaces must be abrasive blasted to ISO 8501/4 Standard SA2.5 (SSPC SP10/ NACE 2) minimum blast profile of 75 microns using an angular.
• Once blast cleaned, the surface must be degreased and cleaned using MEK or similar type solvent.
• All surfaces must be coated before gingering or oxidation.

• Note: For salt contaminated surfaces the substrate must be pressure washed with clean water and checked for salt contamination, please refer to the surface preparation and pre-application guide for further information.

Prior to mixing please ensure the following:

• Warm the base component is at a temperature between 15-25°C.
• Do not apply the material when the ambient or substrate temperature is below 10°C or less than 3°C above dew point.

• Mix both Part-A and part-B together in full units as supplied. For small quantities us a mixing ratio of 7:1 by volume or 18:1 by weight
• When mixing both materials, it is particularly important to have a uniform colour that is streak free.
• Use the mixed coating as soon possible after mixing.

Use all mixed material within 20 minutes at 20°C

• Stripe coat all edges, corners.
• Apply the coating at minimum 600 microns using the applicator provided or short-bristled brush.
• The basecoat should be applied at a minimum thickness of 600 microns using a short-bristled brush.
• Ensure the coating is forced into the blast profile.
• Allow the basecoat to cure for approximately 16 hours at 20°C.
• Remove any dust or debris before washing with MEK.
• Once the basecoat has cured hard enough apply the topcoat at a minimum thickness of 300 microns using a short-bristled brush.
• Post curing will result in improved mechanical, thermal and chemical resistance properties.
