Theoretical Coverage Rate

The following coverage rates are for estimation purposes only. To accurately determine coverage rates, apply a test application on the actual surface. Surface porosity and texture, method of application and climate conditions affect application rates:

Recommended Film Thickness: 0.25 – 0.5 mils Theoretical coverage per gallon @ 1.0 mil DFT: 673 ft2

Limitations

Do not apply product in rain, high humidity or wind. The information provided is to be used as a guideline only. Specific jobs may require additional information. Please contact your Sales Representative or GCR Representative at (800) 533-4273 for further information. The GCR Pure Color Series is highly sensitive to solvents containing hydrocarbons. When cleaning the surface, use only industrial detergents and rinse thoroughly with water.

All data is based on the following conditions: Coating applied at 0.25 - 0.5 mil thickness and air cured for 24 hours prior to testing.

* Testing parameters are as follows:

  • Adhesion is measured on a scale of 0B, 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, with 5B being the highest achievable rating.
  • Hardness or Pencil Hardness Tests are measured from softest to hardest as follows: 9B, 8B, 7B, 6B, 5B, 4B, 3B, 2B, B, HB, F, 2H, 3H, 4H, 5H, 6H, 7H, 8H, 9H. 9H is the hardest.
  • Flexibility or Conical Mandrel Bend: “0mm loss” is the highest achievable rating and indicates that the coating did not crack or spall.
  • Chemical Resistance: Contact us to discuss your specific chemical requirements.

Preparation

Qualifications: Skilled contractors, who are trained, experienced, and familiar with acrylic systems should use product. Contractor must thoroughly read tech spec, label, and SDS prior to application. If there are any additional technical questions, call either the Distributor or the Manufacturer before commencing the job.

Preparatory Work: Surfaces must be clean, dry, and in sound condition. Remove all oil, grease, dirt, loose rust, and other foreign contaminants to ensure proper adhesion. Cleanliness standards are strongly suggested.

Primer: Not required. Apply directly to surface.

Aluminum/Metal: Metal that has been exposed to the environments, must be free of all oils and grease by cleaning with a mild detergent and hot water. High polished aluminum is very easily scratched, so it should be washed very carefully by hand with a non-abrasive micro fiber type cloth. Surface should be dried with clean compressed air, making sure not to leave any water spots behind. Non-painted metal that has been exposed to the environment should be scrubbed with a steel wool to remove any mineralization build-up. Remove any residue with acetone.

Previously Painted Surfaces: If in sound condition, thoroughly clean surfaces of all foreign material. Test material prior to application. Do not apply to weathered peeling, or damaged coatings.

Plastic, Vinyl, Leather and Stone: Surfaces should be cleaned thoroughly with soap and water or a mild degreaser. Hard to reach areas should be scrubbed with a brush making sure to treat with care to avoid any damage. Apply degreaser to any previously treated surface with wax, conditioner or silicon-based products.

Application Equipment

Pure Color Series Liquid is sprayable, but for hard to reach or small surfaces, it can also be applied by hand.

The following is a guide. Changes in pressures and tip sizes may be needed for proper spray characteristics. Always purge spray equipment with acetone.

Reducer: Ready to use. Do not reduce.

HVLP (i.e. IWATA LPH-80): Pressure: 30 PSI

Filter: 325 mesh

Tip: 0.8 mm

NOTE: Applicator must use precaution when spraying coating. Avoid overspraying and spillage. Utilize proper OSHA safety standards when applying in confined areas. Above equipment is to be used as suggestions. Other equipment may be substituted. Pure Color Series Liquid can be applied by hand using a microfiber cloth or sponge.

Application

Shake product before use.

Application Conditions:

Temperature: (air, surface, material): 50°F/10°C minimum – 95°F/35°C maximum

Relative Humidity: 85% maximum


NOTE: Temperature, humidity and direct exposure to sunlight directly affect dry time. It is recommended to apply in a shaded area, away from sun exposure.


Ready for application with HVLP spray gun and will typically only require a single coat for most surfaces.


Aluminum: For best results apply GCR Pure Color Series Liquid immediately after surface preparation. Apply a single coat at a 0.25 to 0.5 mil dry film thickness. Best results will be achieved if using a mil gauge and working from the most difficult to easiest area. Allow parts to air dry between 15-30 minutes and avoid touching as coating is still wet.


For applications by hand: Use nitrile gloves at all times. Wet a microfiber cloth and apply to the surface ensuring to create an overlap with each pass. A second coat may be applied to plastic or vinyl surfaces, before the first coat cures.

Performance Tips

For any defects during application, clean right away with acetone and reapply coating again.

Test product on substrate prior to application to insure adhesion, desired color and finish, compatibility, and performance.

During the early stages of drying, the coating is sensitive to rain, dew, and moisture

NOTE: Certain applications will require technical assistance. Manufacturer will determine specifications on a per job basis. Please contact your Sales Representative or GCR Representative at for technical or warranty issues: GENESIS COATINGS INTERNATIONAL INC

Performance Tips

Important: Proper methods to protect over spraying should be implemented. Atomized particles will adhere to most surfaces and are extremely difficult to remove. Do not allow material to dry onto surface, skin or hair.

Precautions: Please read Safety Data Sheets (SDS) carefully. Use only with adequate ventilation. Prevent breathing of spray mists. In confined areas, wear a properly fitted respirator during application until all vapor and spray mists are gone. Protect eyes and skin. Do not take internally. Do not use if you have had a prior reaction to acrylic resins.
