Painting Procedure
Sheet No. 4 of 21
3.2.1 Abrasive blasting produces a rough surface, which improves paint adhesion.
3.2.2 High-pressure oil free air blowing or vacuum cleaning is necessary to convection module after
blasting.
3.2.3 Blasted surfaces should be coated as soon as possible before re-rusting and should not be
allowed to remain un-coated more than 8 hours.
3.2.4 The surfaces shall not be blasted when the surface temperature is less than 3℃ above the
dew point , when relative humidity is greater than 85%, or when there is a possibility that the
blasted surface will be subject to wetting.
Solvent or the thinner is quite effective to remove greases or oils especially on small surfaces.
4. Application Conditions
4.1 Temperature
4.1.2 Coatings generally are not applied below 5℃ as per coating manufacturer recommendation.
4.1.3 Surface temperature above 54℃ may cause the film to dry too rapidly resulting in Pin-holing
or holidays and lower than 0℃ may cause slow or incomplete cure of the coatings.
4.1.4 The surface temperature shall be 3℃ or more above dew point to avoid risk condensation
during surface preparation as well as during coating.
4.2 Humidity
4.2.2 High humidity generally retards the drying time in solvent evaporation but has less effect on
chemically cured or activated coatings.
4.3.1 No coatings shall be applied outdoors when it is foggy, rainy or excessive windy, if chemical
contamination occurs between coats, it should be removed by washing with water or solvent
before next coat.

Painting Procedure
Sheet No. 5 of 21
5. Application Details
5.1.1 Coatings should be prepared for application according to the manufacturer's instructions on
the data sheets and container labels. Individual components of multi-component coatings
must be stirred before mixing.
5.1.2 If the thinner is required, only designated thinner in proportion specified by manufactured
should be used and thinning rate may be adjusted according to the job condition.
5.1.3 If required, allow mixed multi-component coatings to sweat-in before application and use
within the time-allowed port life.
If the steel plates require temporary protective coating which does not affect welding speed and
quality for the period of fabrication, recommended shop primer can be applied preferably by
“ON LINE” process in the shop immediately after blasting.
5.3.1 Airless spray may be most effective in obtaining specified thickness at once.
5.3.2 Keep the spray gun at a constant distance and perpendicular to the surfaces.
5.3.3 Brush or roller may require more coats than spray to achieve the specified thickness, but
may prevent primer coat from bridging into profile.
5.4.1 Welding seams, corners and edges should always receive a stripe coat before full coating in
order to obtain adequate film built.
5.4.2 Bolt joining surrounds and flange matching faces should be applied to zinc primer and 2nd
layer shall be blanked off or otherwise protected form painting unless otherwise accepted.
5.4.3 Special care should be taken to gain uniform thickness and to avoid holiday parts.
5.4.4 Each coat should be allowed enough to dry and interval between coats should be observed.

SYSTEMS AND Consult your International Paint representative for the system best suited for the surfaces to be protected.
COMPATIBILITY
NEWBUILDING
Interzinc 22 is suitable for application to steelwork freshly coated with zinc silicate shop primers. If the zinc shop
primer shows extensive or widely scattered breakdown, or excessive zinc corrosion products, overall sweep
blasting will be necessary. Other types of shop primer are not suitable for overcoating and will require complete
removal by abrasive blast cleaning. Weld seams and damaged areas should be blast cleaned to Sa2.5 (ISO
8501-1:2007).
MAJOR REFURBISHMENT/REPAIR
Abrasive blast clean to Sa2.5 (ISO 8501-1:2007). If oxidation has occurred between blasting and application of
Interzinc 22, the surface should be reblasted to the specified visual standard. Surface defects revealed by the
blast cleaning process, should be ground, filled, or treated in the appropriate manner.
A surface profile of 40-75 microns (1.6 - 3.0 mils) is recommended.
Consult your International Paint representative for specific recommendations.
NOTE
For use in Marine situations in North America, the following surface preparation standards can be

Interzinc 22
Inorganic Zinc-Rich Silicate
LIMITATIONS The minimum overcoating interval is dependant on the relative humidity. At relative humidities less than 65%
the minimum recoat period may by extended. This should be confirmed by carrying out a solvent rub test.
Consult International for details. QHA028/W is winter version in Korea only.
The maximum overcoating interval is normally indefinite but will be dependent on the weather and
environmental conditions. The Interzinc 22 surface must be clean, dry and free from soluble zinc salts and zinc
corrosion product.
For overcoating procedures consult International Paint.
Overcoating information is given for guidance only and is subject to regional variation depending upon local
climate and environmental conditions. Consult your local International Paint representative for specific
recommendations. Apply in good weather. Temperature of the surface to be coated must be at least 3°C
above the dew point. For optimum application properties bring the material to 21-27°C, unless specifically
instructed otherwise, prior to mixing and application. Unmixed material (in closed containers) should be

Intergard 475HS
Epoxy
PRODUCT Intergard 475HS is primarily designed for use as a high build barrier coat to impart barrier
CHARACTERISTICS protection to a coating system. It is recommended that it should be overcoated with a durable finish
from the Interfine or Interthane range when appearance is important.
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.
When applying Intergard 475HS by brush or roller, it may be necessary to apply multiple coats to
achieve the total specified system dry film thickness.
Exposure to unacceptably low temperatures and/or high humidities during or immediately after
application may result in incomplete cure and surface contamination that could jeopardise
subsequent intercoat adhesion.
For further details regarding cure times and overcoatability, please contact International Protective
Coatings.
Interchanging standard and elevated temperature curing agents during application to a specific
structure will give rise to an observable colour change due to the difference in the
yellowing/discolouration process common to all epoxies on exposure to UV light.
In common with all epoxies Intergard 475HS will chalk and discolour on exterior exposure.
However, these phenomena are not detrimental to anti-corrosive performance.
The micaceous iron oxide variant of this product is frequently used as a 'travel coat' prior to final
overcoating on site. To ensure best extended overcoating properties ensure over-application does
not occur and that the surface is fully cleaned of any contamination which may be present in the
surface texture due to the coarse nature of the micaceous iron oxide pigmentation.
When applying Intergard 475HS at temperatures less than 15°C (59°F) or wet film thicknesses of
150 microns (6 mils) or less, addition of around 5% International GTA007 thinners will improve film
appearance, sprayability and aid film thickness control.
Note: VOC values are typical and are provided for guidance purpose only. These may be subject
to variation depending on factors such as differences in colour and normal manufacturing
tolerances.
Low molecular weight reactive additives, which will form part of the film during normal ambient cure
conditions, will also affect VOC values determined using EPA Method 24.
SYSTEMS Intergard 475HS is designed for use over correctly primed steel. Suitable primers are:

Interthane 990
Polyurethane
PRODUCT Interthane 990 is available in a range of metallic finishes - please consult the separate Interthane
CHARACTERISTICS 990 Metallic Working Procedures document for further information.
Level of sheen and surface finish are dependent on application method. Avoid using a mixture of
application methods whenever possible.
Best results in terms of gloss and appearance will always be obtained by conventional air spray
application.
For brush and roller application, and in some colours, two or more coats of Interthane 990 may be
required to give uniform coverage, especially when applying Interthane 990 over dark undercoats,
and when using certain lead free bright colours such as yellows and oranges. Best practice is to
use a colour compatible intermediate or anticorrosive coating under the Interthane 990.
When overcoating after weathering or ageing, ensure the coating is fully cleaned to remove all
surface contamination such as oil, grease, salt crystals and traffic fumes, before application of a
further coat of Interthane 990.
Absolute measured adhesion of topcoats to aged Interthane 990 is less than that to fresh material,
however, it is adequate for the specified end use.
This product must only be thinned using the recommended International thinners. The use of
alternative thinners, particularly those containing alcohols, can severely inhibit the curing
mechanism of the coating.
Surface temperature must always be a minimum of 3°C (5°F) above dew point.
Condensation occurring during or immediately after application may result in a matt finish and an
inferior film.
Premature exposure to ponding water will cause colour change, especially in dark colours and at
low temperatures.
This product is not recommended for use in immersion conditions. When severe chemical or
solvent splashing is likely to occur contact International Protective Coatings for information
regarding suitability.
A modified version of Interthane 990 is available for use within the Korean marketplace in order to
provide improved workability.
Note: VOC values quoted are based on maximum possible for the product taking into account
variations due to colour differences and normal manufacturing tolerances.
Low molecular weight reactive additives, which will form part of the film during normal ambient cure
conditions, will also affect VOC values determined using EPA Method 24.

Interzinc® 22
Inorganic Zinc-Rich Silicate
PRODUCT Prior to overcoating, Interzinc 22 must be clean, dry and free from both soluble salts and excessive zinc corrosion
CHARACTERISTICS products.
Surface temperature must always be a minimum of 5°F (3°C) above dew point.
When applying Interzinc 22 in confined spaces, ensure adequate ventilation.
The minimum overcoating interval is dependent upon the relative humidity during cure.
If thinning is required to assist spray application in warmer climates, (typically >82°F (28°C)), it is recommended that
International GTA803 thinners are used.
It is recommended that prior to overcoating a solvent rub test to ASTM D4752 should be undertaken. A value of 4
indicates a satisfactory degree of cure for overcoating purposes.
At relative humidities below 55%, curing will be retarded. Humidity may be increased by the use of steam or water
spraying. However, cure at relative humidities below 55% is more effectively achieved by incorporating the Low
Humidity Cure Accelerator*; some example overcoating times at 59ºF (15ºC) are detailed below;
Relative Humidity (%) 20 30 40
Minimum Overcoating Interval 24 hours 10 hours 10 hours
The Interzinc 22 Application Guidelines contain further information on expected cure times at lower relative
humidities.
Excessive film thickness and/or over-application of Interzinc 22 can lead to mudcracking, which will require complete
removal of the affected areas by abrasive blasting and re-application in accordance with the original specification.
Care should be exercised to avoid the application of dry film thicknesses in excess of 5.0 mils (125 microns).
For high temperature systems the thickness of Interzinc 22 should be restricted to 2 mils (50 microns) d.f.t.
Continuous dry temperature resistance of Interzinc 22 is 752°F (400°C) if left untopcoated, however, if this product is
used as a primer for Intertherm 50, the dry temperature resistance will be 1004°F (540°C).
Untopcoated Interzinc 22 is not suitable for exposure in acid or alkaline conditions or continuous water immersion.
Note: VOC values are typical and are provided for guidance purpose only. These may be subject to variation
depending on factors such as differences in color and normal manufacturing tolerances.
Low molecular weight reactive additives, which will form part of the film during normal ambient cure conditions, will
also effect VOC values determined using EPA Method 24.
SYSTEMS When it is necessary for Interzinc 22 is to be overcoated by itself due to low dry film thickness the coating surface
COMPATIBILITY must be fresh and unweathered. A minimum of 2 mils (50 microns) d.f.t. of any subsequent coat of Interzinc 22 is
needed to ensure good film formation.
Before overcoating with recommended topcoats ensure the Interzinc 22 is fully cured (see above) and if weathering
has occurred all zinc salts should be removed from the surface by fresh water washing, and if necessary scrubbing
with bristle brushes.
Typical topcoats and intermediates are:
Intercure 200 Intergard 475HS
Intercure 420 Intertherm 50
Intergard 251 Interseal 670HS
Intergard 269 Intertherm 715
Intergard 345
In some cases it may be necessary to apply a mist coat of suitable viscosity to minimize bubbling. This will depend
upon the age of the Interzinc 22, surface roughness and ambient conditions during curing and application.
Alternatively, an epoxy sealer coat, such as Intergard 269, can be used to reduce bubbling problems.
For other suitable topcoats/intermediates, consult International Protective Coatings.

CHARACTERISTICS 990 Metallic Working Procedures document for further information.
Level of sheen and surface finish are dependent on application method. Avoid using a mixture of
application methods whenever possible.
Best results in terms of gloss and appearance will always be obtained by conventional air spray
application.
For brush and roller application, and in some colours, two coats of Interthane 990 may be required
to give uniform coverage, especially when applying Interthane 990 over dark undercoats, and when
using certain lead free bright colours such as yellows and oranges. Best practice is to use a colour
compatible intermediate or anticorrosive coating under the Interthane 990.
When overcoating after weathering or ageing, ensure the coating is fully cleaned to remove all
surface contamination such as oil, grease, salt crystals and traffic fumes, before application of a
further coat of Interthane 990.
Absolute measured adhesion of topcoats to aged Interthane 990 is less than that to fresh material,
however, it is adequate for the specified end use.
This product must only be thinned using the recommended International thinners. The use of
alternative thinners, particularly those containing alcohols, can severely affect the curing
mechanism of the coating.
Surface temperature must always be a minimum of 3°C (5°F) above dew point.
Interthane 990 is capable of curing at temperatures below 0°C (32°F). However, this product should
not be applied at temperatures below 0°C (32°F) where there is a possibility of ice formation on the
substrate. Condensation occurring during or immediately after application may result in a matt finish
and an inferior film. Premature exposure to ponding water will cause colour change, especially in
dark colours and at low temperatures.
This product is not recommended for use in immersion conditions. When severe chemical or
solvent splashing is likely to occur contact International Protective Coatings for information
regarding suitability.
A modified version of Interthane 990 is available for use within the Korean marketplace in order to
provide improved workability.
Note: VOC values are typical and are provided for guidance purpose only. These may be subject to
variation depending on factors such as differences in colour and normal manufacturing tolerances.
Low molecular weight reactive additives, which will form part of the film during normal ambient cure
conditions, will also affect VOC values determined using EPA Method 24.

Intergard® 475HS
Epoxy
PRODUCT A low VOC, high solids, high build, two component epoxy coating. Available with conventional
DESCRIPTION pigmentation, or alternatively can be pigmented with micaceous iron oxide to provide enhanced
overcoating properties.
INTENDED USES For use as a high build epoxy coating to improve barrier protection for a range of anti-corrosive
coating systems in a wide range of environments including offshore structures, petrochemical
plants, pulp and paper mills and bridges.
Suitable for use in both maintenance and new construction situations as part of an anti-corrosive
coating system.
The micaceous iron oxide variant improves long term overcoating properties, better facilitating
application in the fabrication shop, prior to shipping, with final overcoating on site.
Theoretical Coverage 6.40 m²/litre at 125 microns d.f.t and stated volume solids
257 sq.ft/US gallon at 5 mils d.f.t and stated volume solids
Primed Surfaces
Intergard 475HS should always be applied over a recommended anti-corrosive coating scheme.
The primer surface should be dry and free from all contamination and Intergard 475HS must be
applied within the overcoating intervals specified (consult the relevant product data sheet).
Areas of breakdown, damage etc., should be prepared to the specified standard (e.g. Sa2½ (ISO
8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP6, Abrasive Blasting, or SSPC-SP11, Power Tool Cleaning) and patch
primed prior to the application of Intergard 475HS.
Ensure that the surface of the primer is clean, dry and free from contamination and zinc salts before
application of Intergard 475HS. Ensure zinc primers are fully cured before overcoating.
APPLICATION Mixing Material is supplied in two containers as a unit. Always mix a complete unit
in the proportions supplied. Once the unit has been mixed it must be used
within the working pot life specified.
(1) Agitate Base (Part A) with a power agitator.
(2) Combine entire contents of Curing Agent (Part B) with Base
(Part A) and mix thoroughly with power agitator.
Working Pot Life -5°C (23°F) 5°C (41°F) 15°C (59°F) 25°C (77°F)
3 hours 3 hours 2.5 hours 2 hours
Work Stoppages Do not allow material to remain in hoses, gun or spray equipment.
Thoroughly flush all equipment with International GTA822. Once units of
paint have been mixed they should not be resealed and it is advised that
after prolonged stoppages work recommences with freshly mixed units.
Clean Up Clean all equipment immediately after use with International GTA822. It is
good working practice to periodically flush out spray equipment during the
course of the working day. Frequency of cleaning will depend upon amount
sprayed, temperature and elapsed time, including any delays.

Intergard® 475HS
Epoxy
PRODUCT Intergard 475HS is primarily designed for use as a high build barrier coat to impart barrier
CHARACTERISTICS protection to a coating system. It is recommended that it should be overcoated with a durable finish
from the Interfine or Interthane range when appearance is important.
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.
When applying Intergard 475HS by brush or roller, it may be necessary to apply multiple coats to
achieve the total specified system dry film thickness.
Surface temperature must always be a minimum of 3°C above dew point. When applying Intergard
475HS in confined spaces ensure adequate ventilation. Exposure to unacceptably low
temperatures and/or high humidities during or immediately after application may result in
incomplete cure and surface contamination that could jeopardise subsequent intercoat adhesion.
An alternative curing agent is available for applications at temperatures greater than 25°C (77°F).
Interchanging standard and elevated temperature curing agents during application to a specific
structure will give rise to an observable colour change due to the difference in the
yellowing/discolouration process common to all epoxies on exposure to UV light. In common with all
epoxies Intergard 475HS will chalk and discolour on exterior exposure. However, these phenomena
are not detrimental to anti-corrosive performance.
The micaceous iron oxide variant of this product is frequently used as a 'travel coat' prior to final
overcoating on site. To ensure best extended overcoating properties ensure over-application does
not occur and that the surface is fully cleaned of any contamination which may be present in the
surface texture due to the coarse nature of the micaceous iron oxide pigmentation.
When applying Intergard 475HS at temperatures less than 15°C (59°F) or wet film thicknesses of
150 microns (6 mils) or less, addition of around 5% International GTA007 thinners will improve film
appearance, sprayability and aid film thickness control.
Note: VOC values are typical and are provided for guidance purpose only. These may be subject to
variation depending on factors such as differences in colour and normal manufacturing tolerances.
Low molecular weight reactive additives, which will form part of the film during normal ambient cure
conditions, will also affect VOC values determined using EPA Method 24.
SYSTEMS Intergard 475HS is designed for use over correctly primed steel. Suitable primers are:
