Recommended Uses

International Intercryl 525 is designed for use as a primer/finish for structural steel, in a wide variety of general industrial environments of light to moderate corrosivity, including on bridges, commercial buildings, infrastructure and manufacturing plants. Intercryl 525 exhibits excellent colour and gloss retention.

All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and free from contamination. Prior to paint application all surfaces should be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504:2000.

Oil or grease should be removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1 solvent cleaning. Strict adherence to all cleanliness standards is essential for application of water based coatings.

 

Method of Application

• Airless Spray

• Air Spray

• Brush

• Roller

Maximum film build in one coat is best attained by airless spray. When applying by methods other than airless spray, the required film build is unlikely to be achieved. Application by air spray may require a multiple cross spray pattern to attain maximum film build. Low or high temperatures may require specific application techniques to achieve maximum film build.

Application by other methods, such as brush or roller, may require more than one coat and should only be used for small areas or touch-up work.

Please refer to the Data Sheet for additional preparation, application and safety instructions prior to usage.
