• Solids by volume: 39 ± 2 volume%
• Remarks: Handle with care. Stir well before use.
• Application equipment / methods: By brush, roller, or conventional spray.
• Spreading rate per coat
   - Theoretical 10.8 m²/l - 15.2 m²/l
   - Spreading rate depends on film thickness applied, type of texture, surface porosity, imperfections, temperature, wastage during painting etc.
• Recommended film thickness per coat
   - Wet 65  µm - 92 µm
   - Dry 25 µm - 35 µm
   - Film thickness will vary and is calculated as average.
• Thinner: Gardex Thinner
• Dilution: The paint is ready to use after proper stirring. If thinning is required, Jotun Gardex Thinner may be added up to a maximum of 5%.
• Conditions during application
   - The moisture content of the substrate should be low as high moisture content in the substrate is the common cause for premature paint failure.
• Drying times
Drying times are generally related to air circulation, temperature, film thickness and number of coats, and will be affected correspondingly. The figures given in the table are typical with:
   - Good ventilation (Outdoor exposure or free circulation of air)
Typical film thickness
   - One coat on top of inert substrate
   - The given data must be considered as guidelines only. The actual drying time and time before recoating may be shorter or longer, depending on the ambient temperature, film thickness, ventilation, humidity, underlying paint system, requirement for early handling and mechanical strength etc.
1. Recommended data given is, for recoating with the same generic type of paint.
2. In case of multi-coat application, drying times will be influenced by the number and sequence and by the total thickness of previous coats applied.
3. The surface should be dry and free from any contamination prior to application of the subsequent coat
The drying time is measured by stated values:
   - Relative Humidity (RH): 50 %
   - Substrate temperature: 10 °C
      - Surface (touch) dry: 8 h
      - Hard dry: 24 h
      - Dry to over coat, minimum: 24 h
   - Substrate temperature: 23 °C
      - Surface (touch) dry: 4 h
      - Hard dry: 8 h
      - Dry to over coat, minimum: 8 h
   - Substrate temperature: 40 °C
      - Surface (touch) dry: 2 h
      - Hard dry: 6 h
      - Dry to over coat, minimum: 6 h
