- Dosage Information
Can be added at any manufacturing step.; Can be post-added.; In 2K systems: should be added into the resin part in most cases (to be checked with preliminary testing).; Indicative use dosages (% of total coating weight) : 0.3 to 0.6% on degreased steel, not rusted, sand-blasted or not. 0.5 to 1.5% on cast-iron or rusted substrates. 0.3 to 1.5% for packaging protection.; Above dosages can be increased when the coating is applied in severe conditions of ambient humidity.
