For best results apply when surface temperature is above 50º F (10º C) and a minimum of 5º F (3º C) above the dew point, and relative humidity is no greater than 85%.
Application:
Spray recommended. Brush or roller may be used with additional thinning required. Care should be taken to achieve required film build.
Conventional Spray:
DeVilbiss MBC-510 spray gun "E" Fluid Tip #704, #765 or #78 Air Cap.
Airless Spray:
Use of spray tips with 0.015" to 0.021" orifice is suggested depending on available pressure and job conditions, with a minimum of 2800 PSI tip pressure.
Safety Precautions:
