VI. General Application Instructions

Apply STARKEMER SKPU-300H to only clean, dry, sound surfaces free of loose particles or other foreign materials. A primer may be required, subject to type and/or condition of the substrate. Consult technical service personnel for specific primer recommendations and substrate preparation procedures.

STARKEMER SKPU-300H can be sprayed over a broad range of ambient and substrate temperatures. The limitations are in the ability of the application equipment to provide adequate material pressure and heat. Contact technical service personnel for specific recommendations, pricing and availability of spray and auxiliary equipment.

It is recommended that SKPU-300 be sprayed in multidirectional (north-south/east-west) passes to insure uniform thickness.

The amine “B” component must be thoroughly power mixed each day, prior to use. Contact STARKEMER technician regarding proper mixing equipment.

Follow the instructions attached to A and B containers.

VII. Recommended Equipment Settings

Standard 1:1 ratio, heated, plural component equipment developing a minimum of 1,500psi (10.34 Mpa) dynamic pressure with heating capabilities to 79℃ (175℉) will adequately spray this product. These include GRACO-GUNMER H-3500, H-20_35Pro, E-XP2. Gun models include Graco-Gusmer GX-7, GX-8, Fusion MP Gun.

Pre-heater temperature should be at 70~75℃ (158~167℉)

Hose temperature should be at 60~70℃ (140~158℉) a hose thermometer inserted under the insulation near the gun should read a minimum of 55~70℃ (131~158℉)

Physical properties will be enhanced when sprayed at higher pressure (2,500 psi or more) (17.24 Mpa), untilizing an impingement mix gun such as the Graco-Gusmer GX-7, GX-8, Fusion MP gun.

VIII. Mixing and Thinning

Thinning is not required. Using any thinner may adversely affect product performance.

IX. General Safety

Refer to the MSDS.

X. Delivery, Storage and Handling

Delivery product in the manufacturer’s original, new, unopened package and containers, clearly marked with manufacturer’s identification, printed. Instructions, lot numbers and shelf life expiration date for each component.

Store materials not in use in tightly covered containers in a dry, well-ventilated area at an ambient temperature between 15~30℃ (60~90℉), away from sunlight, heat, or other hazards.

XI. Limitations

o This product is for professional use only.

o Minimum material/container temperature for spray application is 20℃ (68℉)

o Avoid moisture contamination in containers.

o Containers should not be resealed if contamination is suspected, Co2, created pressure can develop. Do not attempt to use contaminated material.

o Read and observe all precautions, instructions, and limitations that are included with all containers of SKPU-300.

o Undried air exposed to liquid components will reduce physical properties of the cured coating.

NOTE: The material supplied is two components (A & B) used to formulate this product. The quality and characteristic of the finished polymer is determined by the mixture and application of the two components.
