coating.
Sealer: Whether to use a sealer coat/tiecoat or not depends on the type and condition of the existing
antifouling.
APPLICATION CONDITIONS:
The surface must be completely clean and dry at the time of application and its temperature must be
above the dew point to avoid condensation. The temperature of the paint itself should be above:
15C/59F. Do not apply in direct sunlight.
In confined spaces provide adequate ventilation during application and drying.
