HEMPADUR XP 87550
SURFACE PREPARATION: Abrasive blasting to Sa 2½, (ISO 8501-1:1988), with a surface profile equivalent to Rugotest No. 3 BN
10b, Keane-Tator Comparator 3.0 G/S or ISO Comparator, rough MEDIUM (G).
Oil and grease must be removed by suitable detergent, salts and other contaminants by (high pressure)
fresh water hosing prior to blasting.
APPLICATION CONDITIONS: The surface must be completely clean and dry at the time of application and its temperature must be
above the dew point to avoid condensation.
Minimum steel temperature: 10°C/50°F. Maximum steel temperature approximately: 90°C/194°F. The
temperature of the paint itself should be above: 10°C/50°F, preferably 20-30°C/68-86°F.
In confined spaces provide adequate ventilation during application and drying. Maximum relative
humidity: 85%.
PRECEDING COAT None.
SUBSEQUENT COAT: None, or as per specification.
REMARKS: Due to a high concentration of conductive barrier pigments in the product, high voltage holiday
detection is not applicable, use low voltage wet sponge pinhole detection at 9 Volt.

Recoating note: The indicated over coating interval will normally only apply in connection with touch-up of areas with too
low dry film thickness.
If the maximum over coating interval is exceeded, roughening of the surface is necessary to ensure
intercoat adhesion.
Nota: HEMPADUR XP 87550 For professional use only.
