Surface Preparation

The surface to be coated must be clean, degreased, and free of surface contamination.

High pressure water blasting is recommended to remove surface contaminants, loosely adhering paint and rust.

Eco Powerclean a powerful biodegradable alkaline concentrate composed of anti flash rust additives for cleaning and preparing surfaces is recommended before painting. When high pressure water blasting up to 5% Eco Powerclean can be added to clean water to improve degreasing and temporarily protect the surface from flash rusting. After application the surface should be left for 2 to 3 minutes for it to react with the metal. It will significantly improve the corrosion protection on exposed metal surfaces and reduce cleaning times. At 5% dilution usage is 100m2 per litre.

Allow to dry before applying two coats of Metal Unicoat. Cleaning by mechanical or power tools is advised when more detailed surface preparation needs to be done, such as chimneys, access ladders and bolts that could be heavily rusted.

Metal Unicoat can be applied by brush on specific localised areas and by airless spray on the main surface.
