REMARKS: Certificates have been issued under the former quality number 5214.
Colours: Certain lead-free red and yellow colours may discolour when exposed to chlorine- containing
atmosphere.
Leaded colours may become discoloured when exposed to sulphide-containing atmosphere.
To obtain full opacity, an extra coat may be necessary, especially for certain lead-free colours in
eg red, orange, yellow and green.
Film thicknesses: May be specified in other filmthicknesses than indicated depending on purpose and area of use.
This will alter spreading rate and may influence drying time and recoat interval. Normal range
30-40 micron/1.2-1.6 mils.
Thinning: THINNER 08080 may be used for spray application, however, with a certain risk of wrinkling of the
preceding fresh coat of HEMPALIN.
Recoating: Recoat intervals related to later conditions of exposure:
(30 micron/1.2 mils dry film thickness of HEMPALIN ENAMEL 52140)
Minimum Maximum
If the maximum recoat interval is exceeded, roughening of the surface is recommended to ensure
intercoat adhesion.
Before recoating after exposure in contaminated environment, clean the surface thoroughly by
(high pressure) fresh water hosing and allow to dry.
