Epoxy Coal Tar

Is a high solids, high build polyamide cured epoxy coal tar coating having excellent resistance to sea water, sewage water, crude oil and various soil chemicals.
Recommended for use on steel and concrete substrates in severe corrosive environments such as permanently submerged and buried pipes, sewage systems, splash zones, etc.

As a long life protective coating for both steel and concrete.

STEEL: Degrease where necessary & abrasive blast clean to Sa 2 ½ or SSPC-SP 10 to remove rust and mill Scale, Weld Splatter, sharp edges & similar defects should be removed by grinding prior to blast cleaning. Blast profile must conform to agreed standards.
CONCRETE: Porous surfaces must be patched & sealed with suitable epoxy fillers. Prime with first coat thinned up to 20% to ensure good penetration.

For immersion service often a minimum thickness of Epoxy Coal Tar must be applied & should exceed 300 microns for adequate protection. Apply filler like Epoxy Filler to all voids, blow
holes etc. followed by 2-3 coats of Epoxy Coal Tar. Total D.F.T. 200 – 300 microns. Mix base with hardener & allow 10 minutes induction time before adding thinner. Apply several coats rather than one thick coat to avoid solvent retention especially when internally coating pipes & tanks. Observe carefully.

– Avoid contact with eyes & prolonged contact with skin.
– In case with skin contact wash thoroughly with soap & water.
– For eyes flush immediately with water for 15 minutes & call a physician.
– If breathing is effected by vapors move to fresh air.
