PRODUCT APPLICATION
SURFACE PREPARATION
ALL SURFACES: Remove all dirt, grease, oil, salt and chemical contaminants by washing the surface with Krud Kutter® Cleaner Degreaser, commercial detergent or other suitable cleaner. Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and allow to fully dry.
STEEL: Scrape and wire brush or power tool clean to remove loose rust, scale, and deteriorated coatings. Abrasive blast to a minimum Commercial Grade (SSPC-SP-6, NACE 3) for more severe exposures. Two coats of primer must be used on abrasive blasted surfaces.
PREVIOUSLY COATED: Previously coated surfaces must be sound and in good condition. Smooth, hard, or glossy finishes should be scarified by sanding to create a surface profile. The S70 Epoxy Primer is compatible with most coatings, but a test patch is suggested.
