Regulatory data

VOC

283 g/lt as supplied (EPA Method 24) 199 g/kg of liquid paint as supplied. EU Solvent Emissions Directive (Council Directive 1999/13/EC)

Note.

VOC values are typical and are provided for guidance purposes only. These may be subject to variation depending on factors such as differences in colour and normal manufacturing tolerances.

System and compatibility

Consult your International Paint representative for the system best suited for the surfaces to be protected.

Surface preparations

Use in accordance with the standard Worldwide Marine Specifications. All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and free from contamination. High pressure fresh water wash or fresh water wash, as appropriate, and remove all oil or grease, soluble contaminants and other foreign matter in accordance with SSPC-SP1 solvent cleaning. Intertuf 362 can be applied over Intergard 269, when used as a holding primer to protect the blast. The primer surface should be dry and free from all contamination and Intertuf 362 must be applied within the overcoating interval specified (consult the Intergard 269 product data sheet).

NEWBUILDING

Where necessary, remove weld spatter and smooth weld seams and sharp edges. Weld seams and areas of shop primer damage or breakdown should be blast cleaned to Sa21⁄2 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or power tooled to Pt3 (JSRA SPSS:1984). Intact, approved, shop primers must be clean, dry and free from soluble salts and any other surface contaminants. Unapproved shop primers will require complete removal by blast cleaning to Sa21⁄2 (ISO 8501-1:2007). In some cases sweep blasting to a defined International Paint standard (eg AS2 or AS3) may be acceptable. Consult your International Paint representative for specific recommendations.

MAJOR REFURBISHMENT

Abrasive blast clean to Sa2 (ISO 8501-1:2007). If oxidation has occurred between blasting and application of Intertuf 362, 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. Intertuf 362 may be applied to surfaces prepared to International Paint Hydroblasting Standard HB2 which have flash rusted to no worse than HB2L or HB2M.

REPAIR

Consult International Paint. Consult your International Paint representative for specific recommendations.

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 power agitator. (2) Combine entire contents of Curing Agent (Part B) with Base (Part A) and mix thoroughly with power agitator.

Thinner

Not Recommended. Use International GTA220 only in exceptional circumstances (max 5% by volume). DO NOT thin more than allowed by local environmental legislation.

Airless Spray

Recommended Tip Range 0.53-0.84 mm (21-33 thou) Total output fluid pressure at spray tip not less than 176 kg/cm2 (2500 p.s.i.)

Conventional Spray

Application by conventional spray is not recommended.

Brush

Application by brush is recommended for small areas only. Multiple coats may be required to achieve specified film thickness.

Roller

Application by roller is recommended for small areas only. Multiple coats may be required to achieve specified film thickness.

Cleaner

International GTA822/GTA220

Work Stoppages and Cleanup

Do not allow material to remain in hoses, gun or spray equipment. Thoroughly flush all equipment with International GTA822/GTA220. 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 all equipment immediately after use with International GTA822/GTA220. 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. Do not exceed pot life limitations. All surplus materials and empty containers should be disposed of in accordance with appropriate regional regulations/legislation.

Welding

In the event welding or flame cutting is performed on metal coated with this product, dust and fumes will be emitted which will require the use of appropriate personal protective equipment and adequate local exhaust ventilation. In North America do so in accordance with instruction in ANSI/ASC Z49.1 "Safety in Welding and Cutting."

SAFETY

All work involving the application and use of this product should be performed in compliance with all relevant national Health, Safety & Environmental standards and regulations. Prior to use, obtain, consult and follow the Material Safety Data Sheet for this product concerning health and safety information. Read and follow all precautionary notices on the Material Safety Data Sheet and container labels. If you do not fully understand these warnings and instructions or if you can not strictly comply with them, do not use this product. Proper ventilation and protective measures must be provided during application and drying to keep solvent vapour concentrations within safe limits and to protect against toxic or oxygen deficient hazards. Take precautions to avoid skin and eye contact (ie. gloves, goggles, face masks, barrier creams etc.) Actual safety measures are dependant on application methods and work environment.

Limitations

A system of Intertuf 362 followed by Intergard 263 may be used for the spot repair or upgrade of the following substrates: Spot Repair (Suitable Substrates): - Epoxy, Coal Tar Epoxy, Chlorinated Rubber, Vinyl Tar, Tar-free Vinyl Substrates not suitable for repair : - Bituminous Upgrade (Suitable Substrates): - Epoxy, Coal Tar Epoxy, Chlorinated Rubber Substrates not suitable for upgrading:- Vinyl Tar, Tar-free Vinyl, Bituminous Feathered overlap areas must be kept to a minimum. 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 maintained in protected storage in accordance with information given in the STORAGE Section of this data sheet. Technical and application data herein is for the purpose of establishing a general guideline of the coating application procedures. Test performance results were obtained in a controlled laboratory environment and International Paint makes no claim that the exhibited published test results, or any other tests, accurately represent results found in all field environments. As application, environmental and design factors can vary significantly, due care should be exercised in the selection, verification of performance and use of the coating.
