TEKNOCRYL AQUA PRIMER 2936-10 is a one-component, air-drying, waterborne acrylic primer.
It contains corrosion-protective pigments and is suitable for priming steel, aluminium, or zinc surfaces in both indoor and outdoor applications. The primer dries quickly, provides excellent corrosion protection, and has good sagging resistance. It performs especially well in combination with polyurethane or polyester/epoxypolyester powder coatings.
Surface preparation
Remove from the surfaces any contaminants that might be detrimental to surface preparation and application. Remove also water-soluble salts by using appropriate methods. The surfaces are prepared according to the different materials as follows:
STEEL SURFACES: Remove mill scale and rust by blast cleaning to preparation grade Sa 2½ (standard ISO 8501-1). Roughening the surface of thin-plate improves the adhesion of the paint to the substrate.
ZINC SURFACES: Hot-dip-galvanized steel structures that are exposed to atmospheric corrosion can be painted if the surfaces are sweep blast-cleaned (SaS) till matt all over. Suitable cleaning agents are, e.g. aluminium oxide and natural sand. It is not recommended according to standard ISO 12944-5 to paint hot-dip-galvanized objects that are subjected to immersion strain. It is recommended that new zinc-coated thin-plate structures are treated with sweep blast-cleaning (SaS).
ALUMINIUM SURFACES: Surfaces that are exposed to weathering are also roughened up with sweep blast-cleaning (AlSaS) or sanding.
OLD PAINTED SURFACES SUITABLE FOR OVERCOATING: Any impurities that might be detrimental to the application of paint (e.g. grease and salts) are removed. The surfaces must be dry and clean. Old, painted surfaces that have exceeded the maximum overcoating time are to be roughened as well.
The place and time of the preparation are to be chosen so that the prepared surface will not get dirty or damp before the subsequent treatment.
Additional instructive information for surface preparation can be found in standards EN ISO 12944-4 and ISO 8501-2.
Application
Stir thoroughly before use.
Suitable airless nozzle size 0.011 - 0.017".
Spray evenly to the specified film thickness. Special care should be taken when spraying edges, corners and welding joints. Small areas can also be painted with a brush, but in this case one additional coat has to be applied in order to achieve the specified film thickness.
Application conditions
The surface to be treated must be dry. During the application and drying period the temperature of the ambient air, the surface and the product shall be above +15°C and the relative air humidity 40-70%. Additionally, the temperature of the surface to be treated and the product must be at least +3°C above the dew point of the ambient air.
Storage
The storage stability is shown on the label. Store in a cool place and in tightly closed containers. It is recommended to use the product within 14 days of opening. Must not freeze.
