INDUSTRIAL
1. Advantages on Steel
2. Surface Preparation
  • No need to sandblast to prepare the surface.
  • Use when budgets or environmental reasons don’t permit the use of sandblasting.
  • Takes 1/3 the power tool prep time compared to conventional metal primer SSPC surface prep standards.
  • Do all the prep at one time.
  • Improve job site and worker safety as it’s Non Flammable, Non Toxic, Biodegradable
  • Easy to use, easy to clean up, soap and water does it all.
  • No thinning necessary. Spray, brush or roll.
  • Works with nearly all conventional industrial grade top coats
  • Clean surface to remove dirt, oil and salt before beginning surface preparation.
  • Use solvent wiping with clean rags or commercial cleaner, brush and rinse.
  • Optional- Spray area with Chlor*Rid dilute 100-1 to remove salt.
  • Let surface flash rust and dry overnight
  • Do not clean with acetone or dish detergent.
3. SSPC Surface Standards
4. Applying the Corroseal™
  • Corroseal calls for surface prep to SSPC SP2.
  • Most Industrial Grade Primers call for surface prep to SSPCSP3.
  • SSPC studies indicate that SP2 is 3 times as fast as SP3.
  • Cover 3 times the area in the same prep man-hours or do the prep in 1/3 the time over conventional primer prep.
  • Use Corroseal to convert rust and prime the entire surface for top coating.
  • Apply with a brush, roller or spray unit.
  • Check Corroseal with wet film gauge as it is applied.
  • Do all the areas and let it stand till the next day.
  • Conversion takes 24 hours. Don’t rush top coating
5. Using Wet-Film Gauge
6. Apply Topcoats
  • Painter checks wet paint film thickness.
  • Correct wet paint film controls paint coverage.
  • Correct wet paint film prevents technical problems in drying.
  • Correct wet paint film thickness helps insure good rust conversion
  • Apply top coat to weatherproof the primer.
  • Corroseal will last as long as the top coat remains waterproof.
  • Use the wet film gauge to get the correct wet film thickness and good rust conversion. Eliminate osmotic failure.
  • Doing the entire area cuts down wasted paint or left overs.
