Introduction -
RANGE OF APPLICATION
This paint is suitable for Exterior as well as Interior application mainly in control Panels, Machinery parts, Toys, Automobile parts, Computer Tables, Steel Furniture.
KEY PROPERTIES
a. Over-coating or stipple finish is not required to get achieve texture/structure finish.
b. Excellent mar resistance
c. Hardness, scratch hardness is equivalent to powder coating.
d. Excellent abrasion resistance.
e. Good water & weather resistance.
f. Unaffected by spillage of Solvents, Oils, & detergents.
g. Hi-Build film formation ( Higher DFT )

Application:
Before application of Texture/Structure finish coat do all necessary pretreatment on the Job. For M. S. surface, remove grease, oil & loose scale & other contamination by using degreasing Agent. Blast cleans the surface before primer coat recommended, do phosphating & passivation. See that primer coat is fully cured before application of structure coat. Do not add any thinner in paint, Apply Tuff Coat Structure finish at 40-60 psi on primer coat with minimum DFT 50 icrons.1st coat should be horizontal, then give 5-10 flash off, another coat should be vertical (Wet on wet two coats)
While application see that the primer coat will be covered properly. Give 10-15 air flash off & keep the object into oven at 130-140° C for 30 while application structure/
texture pattern automatically appears on the object. After Stoving film shows excellent tough & textured finish. After use of paint, close the container immediately to avoid solvent losses & thickening of paint. Thickening of paint may disturb the pattern of paint film. Do not apply the paint in very high humid condition, during raining or mist & fog or at very low temperature.
