INTENDED USES As a coating for the protection of steelwork in severe environments where high abrasion and corrosion
resistance are required including splashzone areas on offshore oil and gas platforms, wharf piles, ship loading
facilities, jetties, decks, bridges, chemical plants, pulp and paper mills, and water treatment plants.
Particularly suitable when used in conjunction with appropriate aggregate to provide a tough, durable non-slip
deck system. Interzone 485 is ideally suited for use on heliports, work areas and walkways on offshore
structures.
Excellent resistance to cathodic disbondment, gives good compatibility with both sacrificial anode and
impressed current systems. Interzone 485 is particularly suitable for the long term protection of sub-sea
structures, or as a shop or field applied coating for hot, cathodically protected oil or gas pipelines.
As a tank lining for abrasive slurry e.g. CIL/CIP tanks in the gold mining industry.

Ecotech is an initiative by International Protective Coatings a world leader in coating technology to promote the
use of environmentally sensitive products across the globe.
For immersion service, Interzone 485 must be applied to surfaces blast cleaned to Sa2½ (ISO 8501
-1:2007) or SSPC-SP10. However, for atmospheric exposure Interzone 485 may be applied to
surfaces prepared to a minimum of Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP6.
Surface defects revealed by the blast cleaning process should be ground, filled, or treated in the
appropriate manner.
Interzone 485 can be applied over Interline 982. The primer surface should be dry and free from all
contamination and Interzone 485 must be applied within the overcoating intervals specified (consult
the relevant product datasheet).
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
Mix Ratio 4 part(s) : 1 part(s) by volume
Working Pot Life 10°C (50°F) 15°C (59°F) 25°C (77°F) 40°C (104°F)
1 hour 1 hour 45 minutes 30 minutes
Work Stoppages Do not allow material to remain in hoses, gun or spray equipment.
Thoroughly flush all equipment with International GTA853 (or GTA203).
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 GTA853 (or
GTA203). 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.

PRODUCT Interzone 485 is suitable for use with cathodic protection with or without the recommended primer.
CHARACTERISTICS
For specific chemical resistance contact International Protective Coatings.
This product will not cure adequately below 5°C (41°F). For maximum performance ambient curing
temperatures should be above 10°C (50°F).
In high impact and abrasion applications do not use primer and apply over a minimum surface
profile height of 75 microns (3 mils).
At high film thickness, >2000 microns (80 mils) apply in two coats to minimise rough surface texture
and indentations.
Care should be taken to avoid over application of any priming system used under Interzone 485.
Excessive primer film thickness could lead to splitting of the film when overcoated with Interzone
485.
At temperatures below 20°C (68°F) larger pumps and tip sizes may be required to achieve
atomisation. Care must be taken not to over atomise the product as this will result in a rough
surface texture and indentations.
Apply using a minimum airless spray pump of 45:1 ratio, for best results a 64:1 ratio is preferred.
Storage must be between 20-30°C (68-86°F) to ensure suitable application viscosity.
Remove all line filters.
Thoroughly blend both components together as specified and thin up to 3% with
International thinner GTA203.
Do not use excessive air pressure. Adjust fluid pressure and tip size to achieve suitable
atomisation.
Fluid line should have a diameter no less than ½inch (13 mm) with a 3/8inch (9 mm) diameter whip
end no longer than 5 metres (16.4 ft).
Interzone 485 can be utilised as a non-skid deck system by modification with suitable aggregate.
Consult International Protective Coatings for further details.

carried out in order to create surface roughness to ensure adhesion
Application of the specified scheme to the recommended dry film
thickness should be applied by spray or hand application
3. TECHNICAL INSPECTION
All parties involved in the coating work must agree an inspection procedure prior
to work commencing, this should outline how and when both work and inspection
will be undertaken.
Prior to commencing the project the contractor(s) must be provided with copies of
the relevant product data sheets. Attention should be drawn to pack sizes, mix
ratios, thinning restrictions, required application conditions etc.
Inspection equipment for measurement of profile depth, humidity, wet and dry
film thickness, etc should be of approved types and should be within calibration
limits.
NOTE: When measuring the dry film thickness of coatings, the DFT. gauge must
be calibrated prior to use as follows:
Steel Condition
Prior to commencement of grit blasting it is essential that the steel is clean, dry,
and in a condition suitable for surface preparation and application of the coating
scheme. The following briefly outlines the minimum requirements:
Steelwork Preparation
Preparation grades of welds, cut edges and surface imperfections are described
in ISO 8501-3, such as weld spattern, protusion , scale etc
Preparation to P3 grade of this standard will provide surfaces which will ensure
optimum paint performance. International Paint recommends the following
methods and minimum levels of preparation on any new steelwork:
Any lamination to be
Plate
removed by grinder or
Lamination
disc sander
Where undercut is to a
depth exceeding 1mm
and a width smaller than
Undercut
the depth, repair by
welding or grinding may
be necessary
Coatings may only be applied to surfaces which have been maintained in a dry
condition with the steel temperature at least 3°C above the dew point for more
than one hour. The surfaces must be visibly dry and clean at the time of
application. This condition must be maintained until the coating is cured.
The paint must be stored out of direct sunlight so that the temperature of the
material will not exceed 25°C (77qF) for prolonged periods of time.
In winter months, when temperatures can be expected to fall below 10°C, the
base should be stored in premises, (storeroom, hut, etc), which are heated to a
temperature in excess of 10°C for a period of not less than 48 hours immediately
prior to use (unless stated otherwise on the product technical data sheet).
Grit Blasting
a) General
The maximum allowed total soluble salt contamination on the steel before
application of the Interzone 485 scheme is 20mgm-2.
Air used for blasting must be clean, oil free and dry. The pressure should be
at least 7kgcm-² at the nozzle.
c) Abrasive blasting
Abrasives used for blasting must be dry and free from dirt, oil, and grease and
suitable for producing the standard of cleanliness and profile specified. The
abrasive must therefore be in accordance with the specifications given in ISO
11126 - Parts 1 to 8 and each delivery should carry a certificate of conformity
to this specification.
Particular attention should be given to ISO 11127 - Part 6, where the level of
water soluble contaminants must not give a conductivity value greater than
25mS/m, and ISO 11127 - Part 7, where the level of water soluble chlorides
must not exceed 0.0025% by weight.
d) Blast Profile
The required amplitude of the blast profile depends upon the type of coating
to be applied. Measurement on site should be by profile gauge or other
mutually acceptable instruments.
When using a needle gauge such as the Elcometer 123, a value of 50-75
microns, taking a maximum of 10 determinations, is ideal.
Prior to initial blasting inspection, the bulk of spent grit should be removed.
Following provisional approval of the blast standard, all remaining traces of grit
and dust should be removed from all areas.
Paint Mixing
Efficient mechanical stirrers for the correct mixing of paint must be used.
Paint Application
All paints should be applied by airless spray except for stripe coats where brush
or roller should in general be used.
Available air pressure and capacity for spray equipment should be at least
5.5kg/cm2 and 7.0m3/min (80 psi and 250 cfm).
All spray equipment must be in good working order and be capable of performing
to the output requirements defined in International Paint product technical data
sheets.
Remove all filters from the spray unit and airless spray guns
Stripe coating is an essential part of good painting practice. Typical areas where
stripe coats must be applied include field join area
i) plate edges
ii) cut outs i.e. scallops
iii) welds
iv) areas of difficult access
v) small fitments of difficult configuration
Introduction
Some coatings contain volatile flammable organic solvents which can form
explosive mixtures with air especially when applying by spray methods. Safety
precautions must be taken whilst applying this type of coating in enclosed areas.
Detailed attention must be given to the following points:
x Danger of explosion or fire
x Provision of a suitable breathing environment for workers.
x Prevention of skin irritation problems.
x Use of paints which have been specially formulated for use in tanks.
Ventilation
During and after coating application it is essential that solvent vapours are
removed to ensure that the level present in the atmosphere does not rise above
that recommended in the section (6.2) dealing with “Danger of Explosion and
Fire”. This means that the ventilation system must be arranged such that “dead
spaces” do not exist and the ventilation must be continued both during the time
that application is proceeding and also whilst solvent is released from the paint
film during the drying process. Particular care must be taken to ensure that
solvent vapour, which is heavier than air, does not accumulate in the lower areas
of the tanks.
The amount of air per minute for ventilating to 10% of the LEL (lower explosive
limit) can be regarded as the required air quantity multiplied by rate of application
per minute. The required air quantity is the amount of air needed for each litre of
paint to ventilate to the required level.
International Paint should be contacted for RAQ and LEL values, which are also
given on the Material Safety Data Sheets for the appropriate products.
Safety is the overriding consideration with this type of coating work, and the Site
Safety Department must be made fully aware of all aspects of the operation.
Mobile telephones, electrical cameras, and any equipment that is not intrinsically
safe, must not be used in the area or near to extraction systems.
Skin Irritation
If proper protective clothing has been worn, e.g. overalls, gloves, air fed hood etc,
no discomfort should be experienced from skin irritation. Any small areas not
protected by clothing, e.g. wrists or neck, can be treated with a non-greasy
barrier cream. (Petroleum jelly is not recommended as this can assist the
transport of solvents into the skin).
Note
2. It is imperative that, prior to the commencement of any tank coating project, local
Regulations regarding Health and Safety be consulted.
