Product Data Sheet 545 Epoxy Primer D8001/D3001 or D1001/D3001 Intended Uses 545 Epoxy Primer is a two component epoxy primer with outstanding corrosion and adhesion properties for steel, aluminum, wood, and fibreglass substrates. 545 Epoxy Primer is used to seal surfacing primers before applying topcoats. It may be applied by spray, brush, or roller and may be used above or below the waterline.

A further coat may be necessary to achieve the minimum DFT. Coverage calculations are based on theoretical transfer efficiency of 100%. Actual coverage rate obtained will vary according to equipment choice, application techniques, part size and application environment. VOC All VOC information contained herein is theoretical (unless otherwise stated). Actual VOC content may vary by batch and when tested via standard test methodology. Product As Supplied (without reducer) g/L Surface Preparation The surface preparation advice provided, and equipment suggestions, can be used as a guide. Preparation techniques and results will vary according to individual conditions, equipment choice/condition and other factors. Testing on a non-critical area should be carried out prior to full-scale preparation. GRP: Remove all surface contamination (waxes, mold release products, dirt, grease etc). Sand with P150 - P220 grade (grit) paper. Steel: Grit blast to white metal in accordance with SSPCSP10 (Sa 2½) to a 23 mils (5075 microns) profile. Aluminium: Grind with 36 grit disc or blast to bright, clean aluminium. The metal must be bright silver and completely free of gray oxidation. The surface profile must be a 2-3 mils profile (50-75 microns). Wood: The wood should be clean and dry. Sand the surface with 80-120 grit paper. Blow off the surface with clean, dry compressed air while wiping with clean rags to remove sanding and dust residue. Mixing & Reduction Mixing and reduction requirements will vary according to individual conditions, climate, equipment choice/condition and other factors. Mixing and application of a small sample before full-scale application is recommended. Application Methods Recommended Thinning Spraying Viscosity Brush, Roller Mix by volume one part Base with one part Converter to a smooth, homogenous mixture. Brush Below 25°C (77°F) you may use COLD CURE Accelerator (M3066) to maintain dry and cure times. Induction Time after Mixing = 15 Minutes. Application Application equipment and parameters are given as a guide. Actual equipment choices will vary according to application conditions, equipment condition and other factors. Testing on a non-critical area should be carried out prior to full-scale application. Contact your local technical service representative for further advice if necessary. For wood substrates, first seal the wood with a light coat of 545 Epoxy Primer (spray) reduced 40% with T0006. Allow to cure for 12-16 hours.
