- Uses
- Intended for use as a topcoat over properly primed steel under atmospheric exposure.
- Durable finish coating for steel and other metals.
- Direct-To-Metal application where gloss and color retention are desired and anti-corrosive protection is minimally required
- Durable, direct-to-surface coating for concrete, plaster, stucco, and masonry for long-term gloss and color retention.
- Can be used as a top-coat over Polyset’s WB HRZS® Primer zinc-rich primer system in either one or two coats for extended durability and the maximum in weathering protection.
- Surface Preparation
Surface must be clean, cool, dry, and free of grease, scaling paint, special surface hardeners, curing agent or other contaminants. Protect nearby objects (including vehicles & plant life) from overspray, drips or spatters by covering with drop cloths or other appropriate material. Allow new concrete, plaster, stucco and masonry to cure for a minimum of 30 days before application.
- Mixing
Mix Ply-Guard WBAC thoroughly before use. If the pigment has settled, pour off most of the liquid. Thoroughly mix the pigment with the remaining liquid, taking care to scrape all the pigment off the bottom of the can. Gradually add the poured-off liquid and mix thoroughly. Mixing can be made easier by transferring contents to a larger container or by pouring the paint to and from another container. Examine the bottom of the container for unmixed pigment. Screen paint before applying.
- Applications Instruction
Ply-Guard WBAC may be applied by spray or brush. Cross brushing or cross spraying application is highly desirable. Application by spray tends to provide the best leveling. Apply to the specified film thickness or, if none is specified, to 2.5 mils (50 microns) minimum DFT per coat, or approximately 7 mils (174 microns) WFT.
