PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.) .
EQUIPMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
(Comparable equipment also suitable.)
BRUSH: Use a good quality natural or synthetic bristle brush.
ROLLER: Use a good quality lamb’s wool or synthetic fiber
(3/8-1/2"nap).
AIR-ATOMIZED SPRAY:
Method Fluid Tip Fluid Delivery Atom. Pressure
Pressure 0.055-0.070 10-16 oz./min. 25-60 psi
Siphon 0.055-0.070 25-60 psi
HVLP 0.043-0.070 8-10 oz./min. 10 psi (at tip)
AIRLESS SPRAY:
Fluid Press. Fluid Tip Filter Mesh
1,800-3,000 psi 0.013-0.017 100
THINNING
Thinning is normally not required, except for air-atomized
spray. For air-atomized spray application, thin only up to 10%
by volume with 160402 Thinner after the components have
been mixed. If the coating is going to be used in immersion
service, 9102 or 9104 activator, then, use up to 10% 165402
Thinner for air-atomized spray and up to 5% of 165402
Thinner for airless spray.
NOTE: Addition of more than 10% of 160402 or 165402
Thinner will cause VOC to exceed 340 g/l. In this case,
333402 VOC exempt thinner can be used if needed.
MIXING
Both the base and activator components are highly pigmented.
Mix each component thoroughly to ensure any settled
pigment is re-dispersed before combining the components
together. Combine at a 1:1 ratio by volume in a container
large enough to hold the total volume. Mix thoroughly for 2-3
minutes. Power mixing is preferred. Do not mix more material
than you plan to use within the listed pot life.
CLEAN-UP
Use 160402 or 165402 Thinner.
SHELF LIFE
Base components 3 years
Activators 2 years
Unopened containers. Some settling may occur requiring
mechanical mixing to redisperse pigment.

NOTE: In swimming pool service, early chalking may
occur if the water pH is outside the range of 7.2-7.6
and/or if the water temperature exceeds 100°F (38°C).
CAUTION: Exposure of the 9100 System during the
curing stage of the coating to the by products of propane
combustion may cause discoloration to occur. During
application and curing, propane fueled fork lifts and other
vehicles or propane fueled heaters should not be used in
the area until the coating is fully cured. At least 72 hours.
