APPLICATION:                                             

 

Caution!  READ THIS ENTIRE DATA SHEET BEFORE CONTINUING. CONTINUING.                                     

Surfaces must be free of dirt, loose debris, oils, grease or other substances that will interfere with bond.  It is advisable to have the surface as dry as possible.  All repairs of damage or defects must be made prior to coating. Apply by spray, roller or brush.  Roller and brush techniques provide best penetration and performance results.  For roller application, use a medium or short nap roller.  For brush application, use a soft bristle brush.  Apply enough Polaprime only to cover the surface.  It is not advisable to pour Polaprime straight onto the surface.                       

                                                                            

LIMITATIONS:                                                             

Do not apply Polaprime if the temperature is predicted to drop below 35°F within 4 hours of  completion of application. Do not apply any of the Polaprime series to saturated surfaces or substrates that have ice crystals entrapped.  Do not apply if rain is forecast within 4 hours of completion of application. With the exception of Polaprime 2, use EP rated spray equipment.                 

                                                                  

MAINTENANCE:                                           

If an area becomes damaged, remove loose substrate and coating and clean the damaged area. Repair the substrate and re-prime with the appropriate Polaprime product. Finally, topcoat with a finish coating to match the surrounding area.

 

PRECAUTIONS:

 

Polaprime 2 & Epoxy Primer

Polaprime 2 and Epoxy Primer are alkaline or water-based products.  Avoid contact with skin and eyes.  In case of contact, immediately flush with clear water.  For eyes, get medical attention in addition to flushing.  Avoid inhalation of spray mist.  If spray mist is inhaled, immediately contact a physician.  Wear rubber gloves, coveralls, and safety goggles when applying Polaprime 2 and Epoxy Primer.

 

Polaprimes 7 & 21

The above primers are solvent-based. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.  In case of contact with skin, wash with soap and water for 15 minutes. For contact with eyes, immediately flush with clean water for 15 minutes and get medical attention in addition to flushing. Do NOT ingest.  In case of ingestion, do NOT induce vomiting; immediately contact a physician. Avoid inhalation of fumes; if aerosol mist is inhaled, seek immediate medical attention.  Wear safety goggles, rubber gloves, coveralls, and filter mask when applying these primers.
