increase in temperature and doubled by a 10 °C decrease in temperature.

Application of Delta shield HP 400 Comp A & Comp B

➢ DELTA Shield HP 400 can only be applied using high pressure heated plural component spray equipment (Graco
Reactor 2 E-XP2) by trained and approved applicators.

➢ In ambient temperatures below 15C chemical drums should be pre-heated using band heaters to 30 – 40C.

➢ The B-side component should be thoroughly power stirred prior to the commencement of spraying and
periodically during the spraying process to ensure there is no settling out of the B-side chemical components.

➢ The Pigment is always mixed into the B-side using a power stirrer.

➢ Both the A-side and B-side drums should be fitted with desiccant dryers.

➢ Compressed air supply should be supplied via an air dryer.

➢ Primary heaters should be set at between 65-75C. Adjustments can be made on-site based on environmental
conditions, mixing module size and application circumstances.

➢ Hose heaters should be set at 70C. Adjustments can be made on-site based on environmental conditions, mixing
module size and application circumstances.

SAFETY AND HANDLING

➢ All applicators of DELTA Shield HP 400 should be trained and approved by the manufacturer.

➢ Spray applicators should wear appropriate PPE including approved breathing equipment, eye wear, Nylex or
similar light weight spray suit and appropriate covered footwear.

➢ Avoid breathing in vapours during spraying or when handling chemicals.

BGC-MS-REF-001 OVERALL RENOVATION METHOD STATEMENT 0

The mixing ratio of comp A to comp B is 1:1 by volume.

To ensure full physical characteristics are achieved within the finished coating use graduated beakers / containers to
ensure accurate 1:1 by volume mixing of component A and component B.

DELTA Shield F 500 can be applied by airless spray gun or with short haired rollers. Manufacturer recommend is using
8 - 13 mm Nap Mohair roller in the widest format possible.

In the event DELTA Shield F 500 is to be pigmented in a very light colour be aware that additional coats may be
necessary to achieve the required hiding power.

When using very light colours such as light grey or white the pigment loading can be increased by an additional 5%
(to 20%) by volume of the B-side component.

The tack free and curing times of DELTA Shield F 500 are influenced by the environmental conditions at the time of
the application.

Heat and humidity will accelerate the reactivity and curing of the DELTA Shield F 500.

In hot and humid environments only mix small amounts of product at a time to enable full application of mixed
product.

In cold environments the tack free and cure times can be extended considerably especially in environments less than
10C.

When applying DELTA Shield F 500 using a roller do not “over work” the product. Roll it out and leave it so it can self-
level.

Continuously rolling over the product will inhibit the products self-levelling properties
