Suitable Substrates

Elements of:

• coil coating sheets
• galvanized steel
• zinc sheets
• aluminium sheets (not anodised)
• copper sheets
• PVC
• concrete and cement

Because of the fast surface drying of DisboCOR 493 SpeedColor, the substrate must be free of pores and voids. Otherwise smalls bubbles can arise on concrete and cementous surfaces.

Substrate Preparation

The surface has to be dry and free of fat, oil, dirt, dust and separative acting materials.

• Coil coating / old coatings

Compatible old coatings can be overcoated after suitable surface preparation and adequate adhesion and compatibility with DisboCOR 493 SpeedColor. When in doubt, a coating test area is recommended.

Good adhering coatings must be cleaned (ISO 8504) and roughened, chalking residues must be removed completely.

Corroded spots are to be grit blasted PSa 2 ½ or cleaned very thouroghly by hand or power tool to PSt 3 or PMa (DIN EN ISO 8501-2) and touched up with a suitable prime coat (e. g. DisboCOR 872 2K-EP Primer ST).

Bad adhearing coatings are to be removed completely by grit blasting Sa 2 ½, hand or power tool cleaning St 3 (both DIN EN ISO 8501-1) or water jetting Wa 2 ½ (ISO 8501-4), flash rust grade M and prime coated with an appropriate prime coat.

• Galvanized steel and zinc sheets:

Remove white rust and other contamination by grinding (abrasive paper or pad), ammonia-water solution containing wetting agent or sweep blasting (DIN EN ISO 12944-4). Corroded spots have to be cleaned very thourogh.y by hand or power tool to PSt 3 (DIN EN ISO 8501-1) and touched up with suitable prime coat (e. g. DisboCOR 872 2K-EP Primer ST).

• Aluminium, copper and PVC:

Remove all native and foreign impurities. Surface must be sweep blasted (DIN EN ISO 12944-4).

Preparation of Material

Method of Application
