Areas For Use
BLACK BITUMEN PAINT provides an effective waterproof, weatherproof, corrosion resistant protective coating. It is resistant to low concentrations of alkalis and acids and can withstand prolonged oxidation. It is suitable for application to a wide variety of materials including iron and steel, lead, zinc, aluminium, asbestos - cement, concrete, stone, wood, felt and brick and is mainly used for:
- Metal protection - corrugated iron sheets, fire escapes, stairways, ladders, storage tanks, gutters, down
pipes, fences, railings, gates etc.
- As a protective coating for concrete structures, stone, brick, concrete screeds and sand/cement surfaces.
- Overcoating felt/wood.
Surface Preparation
As with all surface coatings, preparation of the surface is of great importance and will influence the degree of adhesion obtained and the life of the coating, All surfaces must be sound, stable and thoroughly clean and dry. Metal surfaces should be wire brushed to remove rust. Where long term protection is required an initial treatment of a rust inhibitive product such as red lead or zinc phosphate should be used. Loose or blistered paint should be removed as should tar based paint systems. New galvanised surfaces should be roughened with a wire brush or treated with a proprietary etch primer. Porous surfaces should be primed with EVERBUILD BITUMEN PRIMER
Application
EVERBUILD BLACK BITUMEN PAINT is ready for use and should not be thinned. Apply by brush or spray .
A minimum of two coats of Bitumen Paint should be applied, the first been allowed to dry (normally 2-4 hours depending on weather conditions) before the second is applied.
PROTECTIVE COATING ON CONCRETE ETC
Since concrete and some stone surfaces may be porous, an initial primer coat of EVERBUILD BITUMEN PRIMER should be applied.
CLEANING TOOLS
Tools may be cleaned by using white spirit. Spillage’s should be wiped off surfaces before the bitumen paint has set.
