Surface Preparation

1. To ensure optimum long term coating system performance, surfaces must be clean, dry and free from dirt, oil grease, salts, welding flux, oxides, old paint or other foreign matter.
2. Prepare surface by power washing, vapor degreasing, solvent cleaning or other chemical and mechanical methods.
3. Surface cleaning methods recommended will depend upon type of foreign matter to be removed and condition of substrate. Consult Dampney Technical Service for specific recommendations.

Mixing

Redisperse any settled pigments by stirring with a paint paddle followed by thorough mixing to a uniform consistency with an explosion-proof or sir-driven power mixer. Do not open containers until ready to use. Keep lid on container when not in use.

Application Guidelines for Fireplace Paint

1. One coat of Thurmalox 270 series coatings at 1.0 mil (25 microns) is suitable for use on stoves and other hearth accessories.
2. For optimum protection apply two coats of Thurmalox 270 series coatings to a dry film thickness of 1.0 mil (25 microns) per coat. Total recommended dry film thickness is 2.0 mils (50 microns).
3. The number of coats of Thurmalox 270 series coatings needed depends upon service conditions of equipment.

Application Equipment

Apply by airless, conventional or HVLP spray methods. Application by roller is not recommended. Application by brush is also not recommended except for porous surfaces such as cast iron.

Thinning

Only thin Thurmalox 270 series coating with Dampney 100 thinner. Note: Use of other thinners not approved by Dampney may hinder product performance and void product warranty.

Dry Time 70° F (21° C) 50% RH

Thurmalox 270 series coatings will air dry tack and thumb print free in 15 minutes and will dry hard in 8 to 12 hours. Allow 1 hour minimum dry time between coats at 70° F (21° C) and 1/2 hour minimum dry time between coats at 90° F (32° C). Coating has excellent recoat properties.

Clean Up

Thoroughly flush spray equipment and hoses immediately after use with Dampney 100 Thinner. Dismantle spray equipment and clean parts, brushes and rollers with Dampney 100 Thinner.

Storage

Store in cool, dry place with temperature between 50°F and 100° F (10°C and 38°C). Keep container closed when not in use.

Precautionary Information WARNING:

Flammable Liquid and Vapor Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Vapors may cause flash fire. Do not breathe vapors or spray mist. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Use with adequate ventilation during mixing and application. Wear an appropriate, properly fitted organic vapor cartridge-type respirator (NIOSH/MSHA approved) during and after application unless air monitoring demonstrates vapor/mist levels are below applicable limits. Follow respirator manufacturer’s directions for respirator use. Wash thoroughly after handling. Wear protective gloves, chemical safety goggles and impervious protective clothing. Use skin cream. In confined spaces it is required to use a positive pressure supplied-air respirator (NIOSH/MSHA approved). Use explosion-proof lights and electrical equipment. Use only nonsparking tools and equipment. Wear conductive and nonsparking footwear. Make certain all electrical equipment is grounded.
