Depending on surface conditions.  \nx Wet film thickness: 80 microns per coat.  \nx Dry film thickness: 40 microns per coat.  \nx A third coat is required for aggressive environments such as coastal and industrial areas.  \n\n| Approximate m2 coverage per pack size.\u003Cbr>Based on one coat. |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| 1 L = 4,5m2 | 5 L = 22,5m2 | 20 L = 90 m2 |\n\nEnsure all substrates are thoroughly clean, sound, dry and free from any contaminants such as dirt, rust, salt, algae, fungi, oil and grease.  \nx Remove all loose, flaking and embedded rust, mill scale and paint by simply scraping it off with abrasive tools such as course sandpaper, a wire brush or mechanical grinder for large areas. Finish with a fine grain sandpaper afterwards to smooth the surface. Bring metal back to a sound condition.  \nx Clean substrate with Duram NS2 Galvanized Iron Cleaner as per instructions.  \nx Apply Duram NS6 Galvanized Iron Primer within 12 hours of surface preparation, and immediately for coastal environments, to prevent contamination and oxidation.  \nTechnical Helpline: [0800 500 222 | duram.co.za](0800 500 222 | duram.co.za)  \nNS6 | DATASHEET  \npage 3  \nUNPAINTED SURFACES – NEW OR WEATHERED  \nx Galvanized iron: Apply Duram NS6 Galvanized Iron Primer direct to prepared surface.  \nPREVIOUSLY PAINTED SURFACES  \nx Remove powdery or loose, flaking paint completely with a wire brush, sandpaper or high pressure cleaner. Abrade surface with coarse sandpaper to ensure good adhesion. Wipe down with a slightly damp and allow to dry. Spot prime bare substrate with Duram NS6 Galvanized Iron Primer.  \nx Stir Duram NS6 Galvanized Iron Primer well using a flat paddle.  \nx Thinning is not recommended.  \nx Apply two or more coats at a uniform thickness with a brush or roller using a long, smooth strokes. For airless spray use 17,19 or 21 thou nozzle sizes, For by air assisted spray if thinned with 5 – 10% water.  \nx Drying time between coats: 2-4hrs  \nx Allow to dry completely – 4 hours for a water-based topcoat or 24 hours for an oil-based topcoat. Apply topcoat immediately.  \nx Water clean up.  \nx Call our Technical Helpline or visit [duram.co.za](duram.co.za) for queries and updated Datasheets and Material Safety Datasheets.  \nx Check that paint containers carry the same batch number.  \nx Take care when lifting and carrying. In transit, keep tightly closed in a secure upright position.  \nx Whilst every care is taken in manufacture, no warranty is given relating to use.  \nx Protect the substrate against corrosion using the correct paint system built up from a number of coats as specified.  \nx Do not mix with Mineral Turpentine  \nx Do not overcoat with epoxies and 2K polyurethanes.  \nx Observe special precautions in aggressive environments such as coastal and industrial areas.  \nx Do not apply outside if rain is expected. Apply when ambient and surface temperatures are 5°C to 35°C.  \nx Keep cool and protect against freezing.  \nx Donate unwanted paint. Dispose contents responsibly-do not empty into drains or watercourses.
