WHERE TO USE

SURFACE PREPARATION

Surfaces must be clean, dry and free of all grease, oil, salt and other surface contamination.
Use an appropriate solvent depending on the substrate and contamination e.g. PURATROL, Acetone, Water etc. to clean the surface and prior to any of the following preparation processes.

Ferrous Metals (New or Rusted):

Remove all traces of mill scale, rust, rust scale and other foreign matter by blasting, grinding or mechanical abrasion.
Round off any sharp edges to allow better film build.
Remove all preparation residue by vacuum cleaner, air blower or stiff clean brush. If required and desired wipe over surface with a cloth soaked in a fast flash off solvent e.g. Acetone (NOT White Spirit) to remove any remaining dust residue. Allow to dry.
Apply an application of OWATROL OIL and allow to dry.

Non-ferrous Metals (New or Oxidised)

Abrade surface using appropriate grade abrasive paper or a phosphoric passivating solution e.g. PURA-TROL (See “Dilutions”).
For Aluminium surfaces ensure abrasive is compatible.
Abraded surfaces should be thoroughly dusted off and wiped with a cloth, soaked in a fast flash off solvent e.g. Acetone (NOT White Spirit) to remove any remaining dust residue. Allow to dry.
Apply an application of OWATROL OIL and allow to dry.

Rusted Surfaces (To maintain the rust appearance)

Remove all loose and flaking rust back to a sound surface and edge by wire brush or scraping
Thoroughly dust off.
Apply OWATROL OIL to saturation and allow to dry.

Previously Coated Surfaces

Remove all previous coatings by suitable means - blasting, grinding, mechanical abrasion or stripping e.g. DSP 800* to restore the surface to its original condition.
After stripping neutralise the surface with Acetone or warm water.
Allow to dry.
If required abrade surface with appropriate grade abrasive.
Thoroughly dust off.
Apply an application of OWATROL OIL and allow to dry.

Note: Where the surface is rinsed with water, allow to dry 24 to 72 hours before applying OWATROL OIL.
