Technical Specifications

Application Methods – Shake or stir before using. Eliminate all
sources of ignition. In most cases only one coat is necessary to
prime most surfaces. If excessive absorption occurs over very
porous substrates a second coat may be necessary. For best
results prime entire surface before top coating. Keep container
closed when not in use. Do not thin this product.
Conventional, HVLP systems or airless systems
• Brush, Roller or Pad – Use natural or synthetic (nylon,
polyester or blend)
• Airless Sprayer – Use .011” – .013” tip @ 800–1,000 PSI
• Conventional Sprayer – Spray at 45 – 55 PSI
Follow equipment manufacturer’s instructions. If spraying, use
explosion-proof equipment, and wear a NIOSH approved
respirator
Tinting – If so desired, CLEAR B-I-N can be tinted with up to 2
fl. Oz. (60 ml) of an alcohol-base stain or aniline dye or small
amounts of universal colorant per gallon. Shake container well
before using.
Dry Time – In most cases CLEAR B-I-N will dry to the touch in
15 minutes and can be recoated in 45 minutes. The dry primer
film develops full adhesion after it cures in 1 to 3 days. Lower
temperatures, higher humidity and the addition of tint will
prolong dry and cure time. Do not apply if humidity exceeds
85%
Coverage – Approx. 400 to 600 sq. ft. (37-55 m2) per gallon on
smooth, painted, non-porous surfaces; 400 sq. ft. (37 m2) per
gallon on rough, unpainted, porous surfaces. Application losses
may vary according to the porosity and texture of the substrate
and the method of application and should be taken into account
when estimating the quantity of product needed.
Cleanup – Clean up spills and drips with denatured alcohol or
ammoniated detergent. If spills or drips have dried use
denatured alcohol or ammoniated detergent to soften and
remove primer. Wash application tools in a solution of 1 part
ammonia and 2 parts water immediately after use. If product
has dried on application tool soak the tool overnight in a solution
of equal parts ammonia and water. Scrub clean with a stiff
brush. Follow manufacturer’s instructions when cleaning spray
equipment.
WARNING: Flammable liquid and vapor. Contains
Ethanol. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Do not
smoke while using. Use with adequate ventilation. Causes Eye
Irritation. Do not get in eyes. In case of eye contact, flush eyes
Warranty – Clear B-I-N is guaranteed to perform as indicated when
applied according to label directions to a properly prepared surface.
Directions are as complete as possible but cannot encompass all
conditions, applications, and/or surfaces beyond manufacturer’s
control. The contents of the container are warranted to be free from
any other defect for 2 years from the date of manufacture. All
warrantees and guarantees are limited to refund or replacement of
product used with proof of purchase. No other warranty or
guarantee is expressed or implied.
