INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE mixing ratio by volume: base to hardener 80 : 20


– the temperature of the mixed base and hardener should preferably be at
least 20°C
– at lower temperature the viscosity will be too high for spray application
– no thinner should be added
– for recommended application instructions: see working procedure
Induction time none
Pot life 1 hour at 20°C *
* see additional data

AIRLESS SPRAY use heavy duty single feed airless spray equipment preferably 60:1 pump ratio
and suitable high pressure hoses
Recommended thinner no thinner should be added
Nozzle orifice approx. 0.53 mm (= 0.021 in)
Nozzle pressure at 20°C (paint temperature) min. 28 MPa (= approx. 280 bar; 4000 p.s.i.)
at 30°C (paint temperature) min. 22 MPa (= approx. 220 bar; 3000 p.s.i.)

BRUSH/ROLLER for stripe coating and spot repair only


Recommended thinner no thinner should be added

CLEANING SOLVENT Thinner 90-83 (preferred) or Thinner 90-53


– all application equipment must be cleaned immediately after use
– paint inside the spraying equipment must be removed before the pot life time
has been expired

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS for paint and recommended thinners see safety sheets 1430, 1431 and relevant
material safety data sheets
although this is a solvent free paint, care should be taken to avoid inhalation of
spray mist as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes
– no solvent present; however, spray mist is not harmless, a fresh air mask
should be used during spraying
– ventilation should be provided in confined spaces to maintain good visibility

max. dft when brushing: 150 μm


measuring wet film thickness
– a deviation is often obtained between the measured apparent wft and the
real applied wft
– this is due to the thixotropy and the surface tension of the paint which
retards the release of air trapped in the paint film for some time
– recommendation is to apply a wft which is equal to the specified dft plus 60
μm
measuring dry film thickness
– because of low initial hardness the dft cannot be measured for some days
(depending on ambient temperature) after application due to the penetration
of the measuring device into the paint film
– the dft should be measured using a calibration foil of known thickness placed
in between the coating and the measuring device

cargoes with note 4, 7, 8 or 11: 3 months
– for detailed information on resistance and resistance notes, please refer to
the latest issue of the Cargo Resistance List
– for transport of methanol and vinyl acetate monomer, a hot cure is required
which cannot be substituted by a service period of 3 months with non-
aggressive cargoes
– adequate ventilation must be maintained during application and curing
(please refer to sheets 1433 and 1434)
– the performance of the applied system strongly depends on the curing
degree of the first coat at time of recoating. Therefore overcoating time

• steel with approved shop primer; power tool cleaned to SPSS-Pt2 or


SPSS-Pt3
• existing coal tar epoxy coating; sufficiently roughened and free from any
contamination
– in order to obtain the maximum resistance against chemical- and mechanical
influences the substrate temperature should be above 5°C during application
and curing
– application at temperatures down to -5°C is possible but curing to hardness
takes longer and complete cure will be reached when temperature increases
– substrate temperature should be at least 3°C above dew point

SYSTEM SPECIFICATION marine system sheets: 3101, 3102, 3106, 3107

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE mixing ratio by volume: base to hardener 86 : 14


– the temperature of the mixed base and hardener should preferably be above
15°C, otherwise extra solvent may be required to obtain application viscosity
– too much solvent results in reduced sag resistance and slower cure
– thinner should be added after mixing the components

exposure to sea water is permitted after an initial cure of 4 hours
– at dfts ranging from 250 - 500 µm applied in a one coat application the
curing times have to be doubled in order to obtain sufficient mechanical
strength

In exceptional cases SigmaCover 435 may be applied at lower substrate temperatures
(down to -15°C) provided that the surface is free from ice and other contamination. In
such cases special care must be taken to avoid thick film application as this may lead
to checking/crazing or solvent entrapment.It should be clear that application at lower
temperatures will require additional thinning to obtain application viscosity, however this
will affect the sag resistance of the applied coating and can induce solvent retention.
Optimal curing and designed product properties will only be achieved when minimum
required substrate temperature is reached.

AIRLESS SPRAY – heavy duty single feed airless spray equipment preferably 60:1 pump ratio
and suitable high pressure hoses
– in-line heating or insulated hoses may be necessary to avoid cooling down
of paint in hoses at low air temperature
– application with 45:1 airless spray equipment is possible provided in-line
heated high pressure hoses are used
– in case of using 45:1 airless spray equipment the paint must be heated to
approx. 30°C in order to obtain the right application viscosity

dft in µm 500 1000

min. dft for closed film with airless spray: 400 µm


max. dft when brushing: 150 µm
measuring wet film thickness
– a difference is often obtained between the measured apparent wft and the
real applied wft
– this is due to the thixotropy and the surface tension of the paint which
retards the release of air trapped in the paint film for some time
– a practical recommendation is to apply a wft which is equal to the specified
dft plus 60 µm
measuring dry film thickness
– because of low initial hardness the dft cannot be measured within some
days due to the penetration of the measuring device into the soft paint film
– the dft should be measured using a calibration foil of known thickness placed
in between the coating and the measuring device

– 1. apply SigmaRite 88 generously using spray, brush, roller or mop on


the surface to be cleaned. For most applications SigmaRite 88 can
be reduced 2 to 3 times with fresh clean water. Use concentrated
SigmaRite 88 cleaner for heavy oil residues.
– 2. Allow SigmaRite 88 to remain on the surface for 5 to 10 minutes, then
scrub off with a broom or high pressure water wash. The longer the
SigmaRite 88 can be allowed to work before scrubbing, the more effective it
is in loosening deposits
– IMPORTANT: DO NOT allow SigmaRite 88 to dry on the surface
– 3. Hose with water under high pressure. On rough or pitted surfaces, it may
be necessary to scrub with a stiff brush while washing. Hot water or low
pressure steam greatly facilitates removal
– 4. If any deposits of grease or oil remain, repeat the application of
SigmaRite 88 and scrub with a cloth or scrape deposit away
– 5.Wash again with water as described before. Allow to dry before application
of protective coatings
– 6. If surfaces are hot, pre-wet before applcation of SigmaRite 88
– 7. DO NOT apply under freezing conditions.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS – SigmaRite 88 is an alkaline cleaner. Care should be taken to prevent eye
contact and avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact. During application
the use of eye protection and waterproof gloves are recommended. See
material safety datasheet and product label for complete safety and
precaution requirements.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE mixing ratio by volume: base to hardener 80 : 20


– the temperature of the mixed base and hardener should preferably be at
least 20°C
– at lower temperature the viscosity will be too high for spray application
– no thinner should be added
Induction time none
Pot life approx. 1 hour at 20°C *
* see additional data

AIRLESS SPRAY – use heavy duty single feed airless spray equipment preferably 60:1 pump
ratio and suitable high pressure hoses
– in-line heating or insulated hoses may be necessary to avoid cooling down
of paint in hoses at low air temperature
– application with 45:1 airless spray equipment is possible provided in-line
heated high pressure hoses are used
– in case of using 45:1 airless spray equipment the paint must be heated to
approx. 30°C in order to obtain the right application viscosity
– length of hoses should be as short as possible
Recommended thinner no thinner should be added
Nozzle orifice approx. 0.53 - 0.64 mm (= 0.021 - 0.025 in)
Nozzle pressure at 20°C (paint temperature) min. 28 MPa (= approx. 280 bar; 4000 p.s.i.)
at 30°C (paint temperature) min. 22 MPa (= approx. 220 bar; 3000 p.s.i.)

Recommended thinner no thinner should be added

CLEANING SOLVENT Thinner 90-83 (preferred) or Thinner 90-53


– all equipment used for application must be cleaned immediately after use
– paint inside the spraying equipment must be removed before the pot life time
has been expired

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS for paint and recommended thinners see safety sheets 1430, 1431 and relevant
material safety data sheets
although this is a solvent free paint, care should be taken to avoid inhalation of
spray mist as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes
– no solvent present; however, spray mist is not harmless, a fresh air mask
should be used during spraying
– ventilation should be provided in confined spaces to maintain good visibility

max. dft when brushing: 150 - 200 μm


measuring wet film thickness
– a deviation is often obtained between the measured apparent wft and the
real applied wft
– this is due to the thixotropy and the surface tension of the paint which
retards the release of air trapped in the paint film for some time
– recommendation is to apply a wft which is equal to the specified dft plus 60
μm
measuring dry film thickness
– because of low initial hardness the dft cannot be measured within some
days due to the penetration of the measuring device into the soft paint film
– the dft should be measured using a calibration foil of known thickness placed
in between the coating and the measuring device

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE mixing ratio by volume: binder to zinc powder 74 : 26


Many of Sigma's zinc silicates are supplied as 2 pack materials consisting of a
jerrycan with pigmented binder and a drum containing a bag of zinc powder.

To ensure proper mixing of both components the instructions given below must
be followed.
To avoid lumps in the paint do not add the binder to the zinc powder.

1) Take the bag with zinc powder out of the drum.


2.) Shake the binder in the jerrycan a few times to reach a certain degree of
homogenisation.
3.) Pour about 2/3 of the binder in the empty drum.
4.) With the jerrycan now reduced in weight and containing more free space,
shake it vigorously to obtain a homogeneous mix with no deposits left on the
bottom, and add this to the drum.
5.) Add the zinc powder gradually to the pigmented binder in the drum and at
the same time continuously stir the mixture by using a mechanical mixer
(keep the speed low).
6.) Stir the zinc dust powder thoroughly through the binder (high speed) and
keep stirring till, a homogeneous mixture is obtained.
7.) Strain mixture through a 30 - 60 mesh screen.
8.) Agitate continuously during application (low speed).
The use of a dedicated pump with a constant agitation for a zinc silicate
coating is recommended.
Note: At application temperature above 30°C addition of max 10% by
volume of Thinner 90-53 may be necessary.
Induction time none

Recommended thinner Thinner 90-53
Volume of thinner 5 - 15%
apply a visible wet coat with a max. dft of 25 µm
same for subsequent coats in order to obtain the required dft

CLEANING SOLVENT Thinner 90-53

UPGRADING DFT when for some reason the dft is below specification and an extra coat of
SigmaGuard 750 has to be applied, SigmaGuard 750 should be thinned down
with 25 - 50% Thinner 90-53, in order to obtain a visible wet coat that remains
wet for some time
this is only valid for spray application

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS for paint and recommended thinners see safety sheets 1430, 1431 and relevant
material safety data sheets
this is a solvent borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of
spray mist or vapour as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin
or eyes

– a RH below 50% requires a much longer overcoating time


– if part of a coating system and in order to avoid possible popping effects
(pinholes) SigmaGuard 750 should be sealed with approved coatings
– SigmaGuard 750 is a moisture curing zinc silicate, this means that it only
cures after sufficient take up of water (from the atmosphere or immersion)
during and after application; it is recommended that relative humidity and
temperature are measured during the curing time
– before entering service or overcoating, a sufficient degree of cure should be
obtained
– when curing conditions are unfavourable or when reduced overcoat times
are desired, curing can be accelerated 4 hours after application by:
• wetting or soaking with water, keeping the surface wet for the next 2
hours, followed by drying
• wetting or soaking with a 0.5% ammonia solution, followed by drying
– before overcoating with topcoats, SigmaGuard 750 should always be visibly
dry and checked on sufficient curing
– for measuring of the curing, the MEK rub test according to ASTM 4752 is
a suitable method: after 50 double rubs with a cloth soaked in MEK (or
alternatively Thinner 90-53) no dissolving of the coating should be observed

dft in μm 300 400

max. dft when brushing: 100 μm


measuring wet film thickness
– a difference is often obtained between the measured apparent wft and the
real applied wft
– this is due to the thixotropy and the surface tension of the paint which
retards the release of air trapped in the paint film for some time
– a practical recommendation is to apply a wft which is equal to the specified
dft plus 60 μm
measuring dry film thickness
– because of low initial hardness the dft cannot be measured for some days
(depending on ambient temperature) after application due to the penetration
of the measuring device into the paint film
– the dft should be measured using a calibration foil of known thickness placed
in between the coating and the measuring device

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE mixing ratio by volume: base to hardener 80 : 20


– the temperature of the mixed base and hardener should preferably be above
20°C
– at lower temperature the viscosity will be too high for spray application
– no thinner should be added
– for recommended application instructions: see working procedure
Induction time none
Pot life approx. 1 hour at 20°C *
* see additional data

AIRLESS SPRAY – use heavy duty single feed airless spray equipment preferably 60:1 pump
ratio and suitable high pressure hoses
– in-line heating or insulated hoses may be necessary to avoid cooling down
of paint in hoses at low air temperature
– application with 45:1 airless spray equipment is possible provided in-line
heated high pressure hoses are used
– in case of using 45:1 airless spray equipment the paint must be heated to
approx. 30°C in order to obtain the right application viscosity
– length of hoses should be as short as possible
Recommended thinner no thinner should be added
Nozzle orifice approx. 0.53 - 0.64 mm (= 0.021 - 0.025 in)
Nozzle pressure at 20°C (paint temperature) min. 28 MPa (= approx. 280 bar; 4000 p.s.i.)
at 30°C (paint temperature) min. 22 MPa (= approx. 220 bar; 3000 p.s.i.)

BRUSH/ROLLER for stripe coating and spot repair only


Recommended thinner no thinner should be added

CLEANING SOLVENT Thinner 90-83 (preferred) or Thinner 90-53


– all equipment used for application must be cleaned immediately after use
– paint inside the spraying equipment must be removed before the pot life time
has been expired

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS for paint and recommended thinners see safety sheets 1430, 1431 and relevant
material safety data sheets
although this is a solvent free paint, care should be taken to avoid inhalation of
spray mist as well as contact between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes
– no solvent present; however, spray mist is not harmless, a fresh air mask
should be used during spraying
– ventilation should be provided in confined spaces to maintain good visibility

max. dft when brushing: 150 - 200 µm


measuring wet film thickness
– a deviation is often obtained between the measured apparent wft and the
real applied wft
– this is due to the thixotropy and the surface tension of the paint which
retards the release of air trapped in the paint film for some time
– recommendation is to apply a wft which is equal to the specified dft plus 60
µm
measuring dry film thickness
– because of low initial hardness the dft cannot be measured within some
days due to the penetration of the measuring device into the soft paint film
– the dft should be measured using a calibration foil of known thickness placed
in between the coating and the measuring device

– when used as coating system for storage and transport of drinking water the
recommended working and washing procedure should be followed

WASHING PROCEDURE
The recommended washing procedure must be applied after completion of the
application.
Sufficient time for full-curing and ventilation must be allowed in accordance with
the recommendations as stated in the latest Product Data Sheets and working
procedure.
Always an adequate washing procedure should be followed.
Several adequate washing procedures are available and may be used (see e.g.
washing procedure described in relevant certificate).

Example of adequate washing procedures:


1.– after full curing of the system as per the latest PDS, the tank should be filled
completely with fresh tap water
– the fresh tap water should remain in the tanks at least 4 full days
– afterwards all tank compartments such as inner hull sides, bottom and deck-
heads etc. should be thoroughly washed using high pressure water
– after washing, the tanks should be thoroughly drained
– after this procedure the tanks will be fit to carry drinking water

2.– all personnel should wear watertight suits, boots and gloves properly
cleaned with a sodium hypochlorite solution (1% active chlorine per liter)
– all tank sides, bottom and deckheads etc. should be brush cleaned or high-
pressure spray cleaned with 1% active chlorine solution as above
note: this can also be done by butterworth washing
– all parts should be high pressure cleaned with tap water and tanks drained
– concentrated active chlorine solution should be sprinkled on bottom; approx.
1 ltr/10 m²
– tanks should be filled with tap water to a depth of approx. 20 cm and the
water should remain in the tank for at least 2 hours (max. 24 hours)
– tanks should be thoroughly flushed out with tap water
– depending upon local regulations it may be necessary to take water
samples, after filling tank completely, to check on bacteria
– after this procedure the tanks will be fit to carry drinking water
