DUPONT 373P27680 - Low Temp Cure

FLEXIBLE/CONDUCTIVE POLYURETHANE PRIMER
SUGGESTED FILM THICKNESS

TYPE
A high performance, low VOC (<3.5 lbs/gal RTS), two- component,
lead & chrome free urethane flexible and conductive primer-filler.
A two-package, low VOC urethane primer that is activated with Imron
193S Activator (or Imron 194S Activator for reduced HAPS
applications) to deliver maximum performance properties. This product
is conductive and allows electrostatic application of topcoats over nonferrous substrates such as fiberglass and plastic. It is also flexible and
provides outstanding impact and chip resistance.

SUGGESTED USES
For use over properly treated non-ferrous substrates such as
fiberglass and plastic. May also be used over properly treated
ferrous substrates such as aluminum and steel

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR

Immersion service.
Marginally treated substrate.
Compatible with all DuPont OEM/Fleet Topcoat systems.
Highly recommended for use under Imron 5000 and Imron
6000.

THEORETICAL COVERAGE PER GALLON

DESCRIPTION

Force Dry: 30 minutes by 120 F minimum (part temperature).

Air Dry: 8 hours to provide 125 RU (min) conductivity (with 1 oz
MasterTint 8989S/activated gallon).

RECOAT

When recoating over 373P27680 (repair-in-kind) and prior to

topcoating with Imron Elite, if more than 30 days have elapsed,
a general scuff sand with 320 grit sandpaper is required.

DUPONT 373P27680 - Low Temp Cure
FLEXIBLE/CONDUCTIVE POLYURETHANE PRIMER
APPLICATION CONDITIONS

ENVIRONMENTAL

Do not apply if material, substrate or ambient temperature is less

than 50F (10C) or above 110F (43C). The substrate must be at
least 5F (3C) above the dew point. Relative humidity should be
below 90%.

VOC content (lbs/gal)

LE AP

3.8 3.1
RTS w/ Imron 193S or Imron 194S
3.5 3.0
Lead and Chrome Free
Imron 194S may be used for reduced HAPS applications

APPLICATION

Stir DuPont 373P27680 thoroughly to insure uniformity.

To 4 parts DuPont 373P27680 add 1 part Imron 193S or
Imron 194S Activator. Add up to 1 oz. MasterTint 8989S
Accelerator to the activated gallon. Mix thoroughly.
For Siphon application set air pressure to 60-70 PSI at the gun.
For Pressure Pot application set fluid delivery at 8-10 oz/minute
and set air pressure to 60-70 PSI at the gun.
DuPont 373P27680 builds at approximately 1.1-1.5 mils per
pass with a recommended set up. Apply using a cross coat
technique, top to bottom then side to side. Each coat should
be medium-wet. No flash time is required between coats.

FOR VOC REGULATED AREAS

These directions refer to the use of products which may be restricted
or require special mixing instructions in VOC regulated areas. Follow
recommendations in the VOC systems chart for specific mixing
instructions.

SAFETY AND HANDLING

DuPont is committed to helping you develop and maintain a safe
working environment. Carefully read the specific warnings and
precautions printed on the labels of all DuPont products before
handling or using. These products are for industrial use by trained
professional painters only.

CONDUCTIVITY

125 RU (min) conductivity on a Ransburg model #236 after 8 hr

air dry sanded or unsanded (with 1 oz/gal MasterTint 8989S
per activated gallon).

APPLICATION EQUIPMENT
Pressure pot or siphon application is recommended to provide the
best atomization and delivery. Use the following or equivalent setup:
DeVilbiss JGA gun, 797 air cap, FF tip (.055).
Air Pressure: 60-70 lbs at the gun.
Fluid Delivery: 8-10 ounces/minute
Paint heaters can help provide a smoother appearance by
controlling the temperature and viscosity of the product,
especially under adverse or changing conditions.
