Increased film thickness will take longer. Do not exceed 48 hours between coats.

HIGHLIGHTS

In addition, Ply-Guard AS (Ultra Flex) meets or exceeds SSPC Paint Specifications 36, 38, & 39 Level 3 weathering performance requirements. Ply-Guard AS (Ultra Flex) can achieve a 5 to 15 mils DFT coating that is free of bubbles or pinholes as part of an effective two-coat system over the recommended WB HRZS® Primer (3-4 mils DFT). Ply-Guard AS (Ultra Flex) is ideal for applications requiring fast re-coat & turn-around times at low temperatures on complex steel structures.

Surface Preparation

Surface must be clean, cool, dry, and free of grease, scaling paint, special surface hardeners, curing agent or other contaminants.
