SUPERSHIELD - PART A (3:1 & 4:1)

Surface preparation
Properly prepared, primed surface following all application procedures and recoat instructions on primer technical data sheet.
Supershield® is only recommended to be a finish coat over two component epoxy primers. Never apply over one component or urethane primers.

Recommended tools
Air Spray: pot pressure: 10 – 20 psi
atomizing air: 45 – 65 psi
nozzle set: 1.0 – 1.8

Airless Spray: fluid pressure: 2000 - 2500 psi
tip size: .011 - .015

Air Assist Airless: fluid pressure: 700 - 1500 psi
atomizing air: 20 – 60 psi
tip size: .011 - .015

• Precision plural component equipment is recommended. All spray equipment including lines and filters must be kept clean at all times to avoid nozzle plugging. When hand mixing smaller quantities, stir thoroughly to a uniform consistency prior to use.
• Apply in wet coat making even parallel passes. Overlap each pass 50% to minimize holidays, bare areas and pinholes.
• Excess wet film will cause sags and runs.

How to use
Mixing
Mix thoroughly to uniform consistency before use. Filter through 100 mesh in line filter.
Note: Successful application requires following the recommended temperature, humidity conditions and film thickness ranges.

Mix ratio
Mixing at 3:1 by volume:
3 Parts SI25000 series base to
1 Part SI25002P2 activator
(faster cure, lower spray viscosity, excellent flow out)

Mixing at 4:1 by volume:
4 Parts SI25000 series base to
1 Part SI25002P2 activator
(STD cure, higher sag resistance, longer open time)

Pot life
2h

Recommended dry film thickness
2 – 3 mils.

Recoat Window for Best DOI
Substrate Temp 70°F (21°C)
Over Itself 15 minutes to 1 day
Over Epoxy Primers 1 hour to 3 days

Flash times
Please refer to specific Cloverdale Primer Technical Data Sheet for appropriate flash times and recoat windows for this topcoat.
It is recommended to apply at ambient air and surface temperatures between 55° - 100°F (10° - 38°C). App ly at a relative humidity level between 33% - 85%.
Surface temperature must be at least 5°F (3°C) abov e the dew point to ensure that moisture condensation does not occur during application and the drying period.
Higher/lower temperatures & humidity, film thickness, improper activator range and poor air movement will affect the dry time and recoat window.
