THINNER & CLEANER: |
Gaco Western's T-5129
thinner. Only use thinner supplied by Gaco Western. | ||||
| |||||
PRIMER: |
None normally
required. | ||||
MIXING: |
Mix before application
to assure uniform color and consistency. | ||||
APPLICATION: |
Apply by brush or
roller as received. Thinning up to one pint per gallon (.47 L) is
permissible if viscosity increases. For spray application, use as
received. For cold weather application, keep material stored above 65°F
(18°C). Maximum time between coats is 72 hours. Longer recoat times will
result in poor intercoat adhesion and delamination. | ||||
CLEAN-UP: |
Clean spray equipment
with GacoFlex T-5129 thinner. Recirculate through lines and gun until
residual Gacosil is removed. | ||||
CURE: |
Applied coating will
cure in 3- 7 hours depending on temperature and
humidity. | ||||
CAUTION: |
Gacosil S-10 contains
solvent and is flammable. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame.
Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors and prolonged or repeated skin
contact. Use only with adequate
ventilation. |
