These times are based on a 3.0-5.0 mil (75-125 micron) dry film thickness. Higher film thickness,
insufficient ventilation or cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could result in
solvent entrapment and premature failure. Excessive humidity or condensation on the surface during
curing can interfere with the cure, can cause discoloration and may result in a surface blush or haze.
Any haze or blush must be removed by water washing before recoating. Maximum recoat time is one
year without special surface preparation. Loose chalk must be removed in accordance with good
painting practice. Specific topcoat products can be used in a much shorter re-coat interval. Consult
Carboline for recommendations and test results. If the maximum recoat time has been exceeded,
the surface must be abraded by sweep blasting or sanding prior to the application of additional
coats. Carboguard 888 applied below 40F (4C) may temporarily soften for several hours, after
temperatures rise to 60F (16C). This is a normal condition and will not effect performance.

Ventilation
Caution
Industry standards are for the substrate temperatures to be 5F (3C) above the dew point.
Condensation due to substrate temperatures below the dew point can cause flash rusting on
prepared steel and interfere with proper adhesion to the substrate. Special application techniques
may be required above or below normal application conditions.
