APPLICATION AND USE

Preparation Use in accordance with the standard Global Yacht specifications. All surfaces to be coated
should be clean, dry and free from contamination. High pressure fresh water wash or fresh
water wash as appropriate, to remove all oil, grease, soluble contaminates and other
detrimental foreign matter.
NEWBUILDING: Intertuf 674 should always be applied over Intertuf 727 or Intershield 300
systems. The primer surface should be dry and free of all contaminants (oil, grease, salt etc)
and overcoated with Intertuf 674 within the overcoating interval specified for the primer.
PREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES:
In Good Condition: Degrease surface then wash with fresh water and allow to dry. Sweep
blast or abrade with 180-220 grade paper.
In Poor Condition: Remove all previous coatings. Prime with Intertuf 548
PRIMING: All preparation for bare substrates is covered on the appropriate primer datasheet.

Method Stir or shake individual components thoroughly. The primer surface should be clean and dry
and free of all contamination (oil, grease, salt etc).
Hints Mixing A power agitator should be used to mix both the individual components and the mixed
paint. Wait a minimum of 15 mins for the air bubbles to disperse.
Thinner If thinning is required, use GTA220.
Thinning Thinning is not necessary in most situations.
Cleaner Use GTA822 for equipment cleaning.
Airless Spray Pressure: 210 bar. Tip Size: 2180-2680.
Brush Brush or roller application may be suitable for small areas but multiple coats may be
needed to achieve specified DFT.

Some Important Points Ambient temperature should be minimum -5°C and maximum 35°C. Substrate temperature
should be minimum 5°C/40°F and maximum 35°C/95°F. Product temperature should be
minimum -5°C and maximum 35°C. Will not cure below -5°C. Avoid prolonged exposure to light
which will cause chalking. Do not use unless mixed thoroughly with the curing agent at specified
ratio.

Compatibility/Substrates Suitable for use with cathodic protection. Exhibits bituminous bleed when overcoated with light
coloured antifoulings.
