YOUR ENQUIRY # OUR SITE VISIT, DISCUSSION

Apropos the industrial blast-cleaning and protective coating works for the steel structures,
detailed proposal is stated for review and approval.
Taking note of marine exposure and heavy abrasion of the structure upon installation, the
proposal is based on ISO-12944, Medium corrosive environment, costal area.
PRIMER

: HEMPADUR FAST DRY 15560 -Zinc phosphate, two-component, polyamine

adduct cured epoxy with very short drying time.

INTERMEDIATE : HEMPADUR MASTIC 45881(MIO), a polyamide cured, high-solid and high build
epoxy paint. It forms a hard and tough coating suitable for heavy duty
industrial requirement where high build heavy duty coating system is
required.
TOP-COAT

: HEMPATHANE TOPCOAT 55210-Two-component, acrylic polyurethane, cured

with aliphatic isocyanate. It is widely used as a finishing coat for protection of
structural steel in severely corrosive industrial and marine environment. It has
good gloss and colour retention properties which adds to the aesthetics also.

The details of the above, including method statements and datasheets are attached along for
