- Application
Degrease abrasive blast and pre-treat as per individual specification.; Stir well before use.; Application by conventional spray or HVLP.; Apply to RPS661/22.; Heat the object to be coated to between 250 - 300°F immediately prior to painting.; Spray one coat onto the heated object, when the object temperature reaches approx. 140°F, return it to the oven and reheat.; The coating shall then be stoved by heating the component to 260°F - 340°F for 30 minutes.; Apply the second coat following the procedure as for the first coat. Repeat the operation until the required film thickness is achieved; flash off for 20 minutes, then stove at 365 - 385°F for 2 hours for full cure.
- Performance
- PL163 is tested to the following minimum specifications; actual performance is far in excess of the following:
- Heat Resistance
