SURFACE PREPARATION Coating performance is proportional to the degree of surface preparation. Refer to

the application instructions for specific primers and intermediate coats for applicationand curing procedures. Ensure epoxies are free from amine blush prior to overcoating.

All previous coats must dry and free of contaminants. Adhere to all minimum and

maximum topcoat times for specific primers and intermediate coats. Aged epoxy

coatings may require abrading prior to applyingPSXONE. A test patch over unknown

coatings is recommended.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

Ambient temperatures 40F to 120F (5C to 49C)

Material temperatures 50F to 90F (10C to 32C)

Relative humidity 20 90%

Surface temperature 40F to 120F (5C to 49C)

Surface temperature must be at least 5F above dew point temperature.

General air quality Area should be sheltered from airborne particulates and pollutants. Avoid combustion

gases or other sources of carbon dioxide that may promote ambering of light colors.

Ensure good ventilation during application and curing. Provide shelter to prevent wind

from affecting spray patterns.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Mixing Agitate with a power mixer for 1-2 minutes until completely dispersed.

Airless spray 30:1 pump or larger, 0.013 - 0.017 fluid tip

Air spray Thin up to 20%, standard conventional equipment, 0.070 fluid orifice. A moisture and oil

trap in the main line is essential.

Brush & roll Use a high quality natural bristle brush and / or solvent resistant, 1/4" or 3/8" nap roller.

Ensure brush / roller is well loaded to avoid air entrainment. Multiple coats may be

necessary to achieve adequate film build. Amercoat851 flow control additive can be

used to for enhanced flow and leveling with brush and roll application.

Galvanized Steel Remove oil or soap film with detergent or emulsion cleaner. Lightly abrasive blastwith a fine abrasive in accordance with SSPC SP-16 guidelines to achieve a profile of1.5-3.0 mils. When light abrasive blasting is not possible, galvanizing can be treatedwith a suitable zinc phosphate conversion coating. Galvanizing that has at least 12months of exterior weathering and has a rough surface with white rust present maybe over-coated after power washing and cleaning to remove white rust and othercontaminants. The surface must have a measurable profile. A test patch is recom-mended to confirm adhesion. Not recommended over chromate sealed galvanizingwithout blasting to thoroughly remove chromates. Adhesion problems may occur.

Non-Ferrous Metals and Abrasive blast in accordance with SSPC SP-16 guidelines to achieve a uniform andStainless Steel dense 1.5-4.0 mil anchor profile. Size and hardness of abrasive should be adjusted

as necessary based on the hardness of the substrate. Aluminum may be treatedwith a surface treatment compliant with Mil-DTL-5541 or equivalent (non-immersionapplications only).

Aged coatings All surfaces must be clean, dry, tightly bonded and free of all loose paint, corrosionproducts or chalky residue. Abrade surface, or clean with Prep 88. Amerlock2 iscompatible over most types of properly applied and tightly adhering coatings, however,a test patch is recommended to confirm compatibility.

Repair Prepare damaged areas to original surface preparation specifications, featheringedges of intact coating. Thoroughly remove dust or abrasive residue before touch-up.


Ambient temperatures* 20F to 122F (-6C to 50C)

* Amerlock 400 hardener can be used with the Amerlock 2/400 base component for applications that require along pot life. The A component is the same for Amerlock 400 and Amerlock 2. The B components are inter-

changeable.


Relative humidity 0 to 100%, surface must be free of visible moisture. For immersion service and for

optimum performance, surface temperature must be at least 5F above the dew point

temperature.

Surface temperature 20F to 122 F (-6C to 50C)

* Amerlock 2 may be applied to surfaces as hot as 250F (121C) for non-immersion service. When applyingAmerlock 2 to surfaces between 122F and 250F, Amerlock 2 must be thinned at 1/2 pint per gallon with only

Amercoat 101 thinner. Multiple thin passes may be required to achieve film build and to avoid solvent blistering.

may be allowable in some circumstances. Please contact your PPG PMC representative for more details.

Surface must be clean and dry. Any contamination must be identified and removed. A detergent wash with

Prep 88 or equivalent is required prior to application of topcoats after 30 days of exposure. However, particular

attention must be paid to surfaces exposed to sunlight where chalking may be present. In those situations, a

further degree of cleaning may be required. PPG Technical Service can advise on suitable cleaning methods.

Compatible with adherent rust remaining on prepared surface

COLOR AND GLOSS* Dull Metallic

Aluminum

BASIC DATA


VOC 1.0 lbs/gal (120 g/L)Recommended

Dry film thickness (per coat) 4 8 mils (100 200 microns)

Theoretical Spread Rate @ 1 mils dft 1411 ft2/gal

@ 6 mils dft 235 ft2/gal

Components 2

Shelf Life 3 years from date of manufacture

SURFACE PREPARATION Coating performance is, in general, proportional to the degree of surface preparation.

Steel Remove weld spatter, protrusions, and laminations in steel. Remove all surface

contaminants, oil and grease in accordance with SSPC SP-1.

Abrasive blast with an angular abrasive to an SSPC SP-10 cleanliness or higher for

immersion service. Achieve a surface profile of 2.0-4.0 mils. For atmospheric service,abrasive blast to SSPC SP-6 standards.

The product may be applied over an SSPC WJ-2(L) where a previous blast profile

can be exposed.

For maintenance and repair in atmospheric service, the product can be applied

over surfaces prepared in accordance with SSPC SP-2 or SSPC SP-3 (hand and

power tool cleaning).

Amercoat 114A may be used as a pit filler for severely pitted steel and surface dis-

continuities.

Check with PPG technical service for the maximum allowable soluble salt level for

water immersion service. This will vary based on the water chemistry and service

temperatures.

Non-ferrous metals Lightly abrasive blast in accordance with SSPC SP-16 to achieve a uniform and

dense 1.5-4.0 mil anchor profile.

Aged Coatings and Repairs Ensure the coating system is sound and well adhered. Do not apply over acrylic

coatings or coatings that exhibit poor solvent resistance. A test patch is recommended.

Sweep blast or otherwise thoroughly abrade the existing coating in accordance with

SSPC SP-7. Alternately, Prep 88 may be used to prepare some existing coatings.

Please refer to Prep 88 data sheet for details. Feather the edges of tightly adhered,

in-tact coatings at the perimeter of repair areas. Power tool clean the existing steel

in accordance with SSPC SP-3 (atmospheric service) or SSPC SP-11 (immersion

service).

Galvanized Steel Remove oil or soap film with detergent or emulsion cleaner. Lightly abrasive blast

with a fine abrasive in accordance with SSPC SP-16 guidelines to achieve a profile of

1.5-3.0 mils. When light abrasive blasting is not possible, galvanizing can be treated

with a suitable zinc phosphate conversion coating. Galvanizing that has at least 12months of exterior weathering and has a rough surface with white rust present may

be over-coated after power washing and cleaning to remove white rust and other

contaminants. The surface must have a measurable profile. A test patch is recom-

mended to confirm adhesion. Not recommended over chromate sealed galvanizing

without blasting to thoroughly remove chromates. Adhesion problems may occur.

Non-Ferrous Metals and Abrasive blast in accordance with SSPC SP-16 guidelines to achieve a uniform and

Stainless Steel dense 1.5-4.0 mil anchor profile. Size and hardness of abrasive should be adjusted

as necessary based on the hardness of the substrate. Aluminum may be treated
