    A test patch is recommended to confirm adhesion. Not recommended over chromate

    sealed galvanizing without blasting to thoroughly remove chromates. Adhesion

    problems may occur.

    Aged Coatings Contact your PPG representative. A test patch ofPSX700 over in-tact cleancoating and observation for film defects and adhesion over a period of time may be

    required, dependent upon the type of coating.

    PSX700 is compatible overAmercoat450-series.

    ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

    Ambient temperatures 32F to 100F (0C to 32C) (FD cure should be used below 40F)

    Material temperatures 32F to 100F (0C to 32C)

    Relative humidity 40% minimum

    Work area can be artificially humidified by atomized water spray and/or ponding water under the coated

    structures.

    Surface temperature 32F to 120F (0C to 49C)

    Surface temperature must be at least 5F above dew point temperature.

    Note: PSX 700 should be allowed to reach a Dry-to-Touch condition before force curingabove 140F

    General air quality Area should be sheltered from airborne particulates and pollutants. Ensure good

    ventilation during application and curing. Provide shelter to prevent wind from affecting

    spray patterns.

    INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

    Mixing ratio by volume 4 parts base to 1 part hardener

    Only mix full kits. Pre-mix base component with a pneumatic air mixing at moderate

    speeds to homogenize the container. Pour in the hardener component and power

    agitate until thoroughly mixed.

    Pot life

    Airless spray Standard airless spray equipment, 30:1 pump or larger, 0.015 0.017 fluid tip

    recommended

    Air spray Thin up to 10%, standard conventional equipment, 0.070 fluid orifice. A moisture and oil

    trap in the main line is recommended. Separate regulators for air and fluid pressure are

    recommended. Use an agitated pressure pot.

    Brush & roll Use a well loaded, high quality natural bristle brush. Maintain a wet edge.

    Use a high quality, well loaded, solvent resistant, low nap (1/4-3/8) roller. Amercoat851

    flow control additive may be used to enhance flow and leveling of brush strokes and

    roller stipple.

    Be aware that multiple coats may be required to achieve uniform and sufficient film

    thickness to provide proper hiding when applying by brush or roller.

    Galvanized Steel Remove oil or soap film with detergent or emulsion cleaner. Lightly abrasive blastwith a fine abrasive in accordance with SSPC SP-16 guidelines to achieve a profile of1.5-3.0 mils. When light abrasive blasting is not possible, galvanizing can be treatedwith a suitable zinc phosphate conversion coating. Galvanizing that has at least 12months of exterior weathering and has a rough surface with white rust present maybe over-coated after power washing and cleaning to remove white rust and othercontaminants. The surface must have a measurable profile. A test patch is recom-mended to confirm adhesion. Not recommended over chromate sealed galvanizingwithout blasting to thoroughly remove chromates. Adhesion problems may occur.

    Non-Ferrous Metals and Abrasive blast in accordance with SSPC SP-16 guidelines to achieve a uniform andStainless Steel dense 1.5-4.0 mil anchor profile. Size and hardness of abrasive should be adjusted

    as necessary based on the hardness of the substrate. Aluminum may be treatedwith a surface treatment compliant with Mil-DTL-5541 or equivalent (non-immersionapplications only).

    Aged coatings All surfaces must be clean, dry, tightly bonded and free of all loose paint, corrosionproducts or chalky residue. Abrade surface, or clean with Prep 88. Amerlock2 is

    compatible over most types of properly applied and tightly adhering coatings, however,a test patch is recommended to confirm compatibility.

    Repair Prepare damaged areas to original surface preparation specifications, featheringedges of intact coating. Thoroughly remove dust or abrasive residue before touch-up.

    ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

    Ambient temperatures* 20F to 122F (-6C to 50C)

    * Amerlock 400 hardener can be used with the Amerlock 2/400 base component for applications that require along pot life. The A component is the same for Amerlock 400 and Amerlock 2. The B components are inter-

    changeable.

    Material temperatures 40F to 90F (5C to 32C)

    Relative humidity 0 to 100%, surface must be free of visible moisture. For immersion service and for

    optimum performance, surface temperature must be at least 5F above the dew point

    temperature.

    Surface temperature 20F to 122 F (-6C to 50C)

    * Amerlock 2 may be applied to surfaces as hot as 250F (121C) for non-immersion service. When applyingAmerlock 2 to surfaces between 122F and 250F, Amerlock 2 must be thinned at 1/2 pint per gallon with only

    Amercoat 101 thinner. Multiple thin passes may be required to achieve film build and to avoid solvent blistering.

    General air quality Area should be sheltered from airborne particulates and pollutants. Avoid combustion

    gases or other sources of carbon dioxide that may promote amine blush. Ensure good

    ventilation during application and curing. Provide shelter to prevent wind from affecting

    spray patterns. Refer to Information Bulletin #1489 for further information on prevention,

    detection, and mitigation of amine blush.

    DRY/CURE TIMES Amerlock2 @ 5 mils dft

    Amerlock2 Aluminum @ 5 mils dft

    * Dry times are dependent on air and surface temperatures as well as film thickness, ventilation, and relativehumidity. Maximum recoating time is highly dependent upon actual surface temperatures not simply air

    temperatures. Surface temperatures should be monitored, especially with sun-exposed or otherwise heated

    surfaces. Higher surface temperatures shorten the maximum recoat window.An extended recoatable window

    may be allowable in some circumstances. Please contact your PPG PMC representative for more details.

    Surface must be clean and dry. Any contamination must be identified and removed. A detergent wash with

    Prep 88 or equivalent is required prior to application of topcoats after 30 days of exposure. However, particular

    attention must be paid to surfaces exposed to sunlight where chalking may be present. In those situations, a

    further degree of cleaning may be required. PPG Technical Service can advise on suitable cleaning methods.

    If maximum recoat/topcoat time is exceeded, then roughen surface.

    This is a solvent borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of spray mist

    or vapor as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes.

    DRY/CURE TIMES* Amerlock2AL @ 5 mils dft

    * Dry times are dependent on air and surface temperatures as well as film thickness, ventilation, and relativehumidity. Maximum recoating time is highly dependent upon actual surface temperatures not simply air

    temperatures. Surface temperatures should be monitored, especially with sun-exposed or otherwise heated

    surfaces. Higher surface temperatures shorten the maximum recoat window.

    Surface must be clean and dry. Any contamination must be identified and removed. A detergent wash with

    Prep 88 or equivalent is required prior to application of topcoats after 30 days of exposure. However, particular

    attention must be paid to surfaces exposed to sunlight where chalking may be present. In those situations, a

    further degree of cleaning may be required. PPG Technical Service can advise on suitable cleaning methods.

    If maximum recoat/topcoat time is exceeded, then roughen surface.

    Safety precautions For paint and recommended thinners see safety sheet 1430, 1431 and relevant material

    safety data sheets

    This is a solvent borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of spray mist

    or vapor as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes.DRY/CURE TIMES Amerlock2GF @ 8 mils dft

    Amerlock400GF @ 8 mils dft

    * Dry times are dependent on air and surface temperatures as well as film thickness, ventilation, and relative

    humidity. Maximum recoating time is highly dependent upon actual surface temperatures not simply airtemperatures. Surface temperatures should be monitored, especially with sun-exposed or otherwise heated

    surfaces. Higher surface temperatures shorten the maximum recoat window.

    Surface must be clean and dry. Any contamination must be identified and removed. A detergent wash with

    Prep 88 or equivalent is required prior to application of topcoats after 30 days of exposure. However, particular

    attention must be paid to surfaces exposed to sunlight where chalking may be present. In those situations, afurther degree of cleaning may be required. PPG Technical Service can advise on suitable cleaning methods.

    If maximum recoat/topcoat time is exceeded, then roughen surface.
