- Building & Construction
- Application
Stirring may be required to ensure uniformity of the material, particularly if products have been stored at temperatures outside of the recommended range.; U-8782 components cannot be cross-mixed with other polyurethane coating materials.; Spray Recommendation - Apply with plural component airless equipment. GacoFlex U-8782 can be applied up to 64mils in one pass. It is recommended to apply the full specified thickness in one application. See Gaco Western's Spray Guide SG-Fast Set Urethane for more information.
- Technology
- Ready-to-Use Products
- Certification
Product certified for Low chemical emissions UlCOM/GC Ul 2818.
- Storage Stability
- Part A
- One year at 65°F to 90°F
- Part B
- Six Months at 65°F to 90°F
- Packaged Product Data
Part B contains polymeric diisocyanate. High concentrations can occur in inadequately ventilated environments when this is sprayed, aerosolized or heated. In such cases, respiratory protection must be worn.; The coating will set in 30 seconds when applied to an insulated surface. A complete cure can take several hours depending on the ambient temperature.; Spray equipment may be cleaned with T-5112 thinner.
- Regulatory Compliance
GacoFlex U-8782 meets LEED Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) requirements and qualifies for LEED certification points under the Sustainable Sites Category, Credit 7.2: Reduction of Heat Island Effect. U-8782 Ivory also meets the 3 year aged testing requirements for the California Energy Commission, Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Nonresidential Buildings Title 24, for Solar Reflectance and Thermal Emittance.
